Concurrency and Resolution Quality

Control proposition

A pilot that compares volunteers with non-volunteers is not a fair test. Match the groups by queue and experience.

Agents assigned to a controlled concurrency pilot, compared with a matched group on the same shift and channel.

The unit is one chat or handoff event; linked events are recorded separately.

The following statements explain what the proposed controls are designed to preserve. They are not measured outcomes.

Handle time, response gaps, resolution without follow-up, QA failures, and agent-reported context switches.

The first response often improves while the middle of the conversation slows. Quality failures cluster in multi-step and payment conversations.
