How it works
Participating organisations provide data against a series of core questions during a one-month window. We have invited Sabio to support you as you gather your data.
The responses are analysed. Correlations are drawn and scores provided against 20 key contact centre metrics. A report is then sent to individual participants.
Each report states the score for the participant compared to the score in the Sabio Index, the UKs largest benchmarking survey tool. Additional commentary is provided giving guidance on areas for improvement. Interpreting the results and identifying goals and action plans to focus your efforts to improve your scores is a key purpose for participating. To help you do this, consultants from Sabio will reach out to help you complete the questions and will be on hand to talk you through the outcomes and give you advice and guidance on what actions you could focus on.

Which metrics are benchmarked?
There are three groups of metrics: Customer Measures, Operational Measures and People Measures.
The Customer Measures will look at metrics such as CES, average response times and the average length of time a customer spends in call routing.
Operational Measures includes abandon rate, team manager to advisor ratio and target shrinkage.
While People Measures will consider advisor starting salaries, development hours and advisor absence.
