Quick answer
To set up Score weights, confirm the input format/device, choose output settings, then run a small batch. Weights determine what agents optimize; do not make every item equal.
Why it matters
Validate on a small sample before running the whole batch.
Compliance/privacy/safety should be veto or high weight.
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
- Compliance/privacy/safety should be veto or high weight.
- Resolution quality outranks script fluency.
- Review weights quarterly so they do not go stale.
