Quick answer
This QA sampling processing runs locally and does not upload; browser extensions can still read the page. Sample for risk, channel and people, not just the most recent tickets.
Why it matters
Local processing reduces upload risk but is not absolute security.
Stratify by channel × issue × severity × agent.
Step by step
- Define QA goals and observable behaviors before building a giant scorecard.
- Stratify samples by shift, channel and risk so they represent real problems.
- Calibrate scoring boundaries before ranking or performance decisions.
- Attribute issues to knowledge, process, system or people before choosing fixes.
Common mistakes
- Scoring without calibration makes managers incomparable.
- Sampling only easy tickets biases the result.
- Using QA as punishment makes agents hide context.
- Looking only at CSAT while ignoring resolution and rework.
Checklist
- Scorecard has behavioral anchors.
- Sampling has stratification rules.
- Calibration records disputed samples.
- Issues have owners and review dates.
Key facts
- Stratify by channel × issue × severity × agent.
- Review 100% of high-risk tickets.
- Check monthly whether the sample covers the long tail.
