Nimbus KPI Calculations

Nimbus gathers KPI (Key Performance Indicators) based on service sessions and user sessions. Their calculation is explained on this page.

🤔 Why gather service and user KPI

  • Service KPI are relevant for managers to determine which services are (in)efficient.
  • User KPI are interesting for supervisors and service owners to determine how well their team performs.

🔎 The difference between service and user sessions on a technical level is explained on page Nimbus Reporting Model.

How to read this chapter

This chapter describes DAX* measures available in the Nimbus Power BI model, as used in our Power BI Template.

HOW TO READ

Some of the KPI measures described below contain name parts put in brackets. They are added help to locate all measures which sum up to a full set (total) or are build using similar filtering criteria.

For example:

  • (OG) = Outcome Group, or (Outcome) for short
  • There are 4 measures. Each of them are calculated as subset of TotalSessions ended with a certain outcome group.         

    Here is an example with the "Handled by User" Outcome group:

ΣHandledByUser(OG) =
	CALCULATE (
	[ΣTotalSessions],
		FILTER (
		VALUES ( ServiceSessionOutcomeGroups[OutcomeGroup] ),
		ServiceSessionOutcomeGroups[OutcomeGroup] = "Handled By User"
		)
	)
💡You can find other measures of this outcome group by using the "Fields" filter in Power BI:

 

 Service Session KPI

Service KPI are used by call center managers to view and analyze general service performance, help to adjust service settings and traits.

Typical Service KPI questions answered are:

  • How many tasks accepted by my Service?
  • How many tasks were Handled?
  • How many tasks were hang-up in queue?
  • What is quality of service? Do I keep SLA?
  • How many tasks are handled by first accepted agent?
  • Average time customers spend in queue?
  • Average time needed to handle customer call?
  • Compare Services between each other.
  • Compare Service performance between multiple time periods.
  • What are possible issues diminishing service performance?

User Session KPI

 User KPI are used by call center supervisors to view and analyze User performance.

Typical questions answered are:

  • How many tasks were user-handled?
  • How many tasks were not handled (missed or decline)?
  • What is our acceptance rate (compared to total calls)?
  • What is our transfer rate (to other services or specialist)?
  • What are our usual times for user distribution? → Time for Ring/Connected/ACW/Consultation.
