Appendix 5
Helpdesk performance
Since 1st April 24 the Fund no longer have access to Achiever software so can no longer determine the Call Answer Time or the Abandoned Call Rate.  Although members can still dial both the Main Helpline and Website Helpline numbers, they both feed into one Hunt Group resulting in no differentiation between call types. On 17 May 25 ESCC telephony went live - the helpdesk was NOT treated as a Contact Centre (and still awaiting to be set up – project with IT).
