Contact Center formulas
Hi

Erlang B/C is okay, but
If your contact/call center is more complicated than one queue for one agent type, Erlang C is pretty misleading. Even with a single queue/agent group, Erlang C overstates staff requirements due to its assumption of no abandonment. Still, not too bad for simple situations.
You might want to try simulation to actually analyze/predict staffing/routing/abandonment, etc. Simul8 is pretty good, although really complicated. I tried simzcc a while ago and it was fairly easy to use |
