As SeatGeek expands its market share and geographic coverage, year-over-year contact volume increased proportionally. It became clear that long-range and intra-day forecasting and staff scheduling capabilities needed to be strengthened before they became a challenge impacting growth. Compounding that was a need for greater visibility into coverage gaps and schedule updates during the day as volumes shifted across channels. To continue meeting channel-specific SLAs, current processes and technologies were assessed and opportunities identified where efficiencies and reliability could be increased to meet the confidence needed in scheduling.
