Background of the Study
Call centers are crucial for customer service and satisfaction in telecom firms, and their performance directly affects customer retention and loyalty. In an increasingly digital world, telecom firms in Kwara State are facing pressure to enhance customer service through more efficient and effective call center operations. Real-time data analytics is a powerful tool in optimizing call center performance by enabling firms to track and analyze customer interactions, identify service bottlenecks, and improve agent productivity (Adamu & Olamide, 2025).
By leveraging real-time analytics, telecom firms can gain insights into customer issues, predict peak call volumes, and proactively manage resources, all of which contribute to an enhanced customer experience. However, challenges such as integration with existing systems, data overload, and the need for skilled staff to interpret the analytics persist. This study explores how real-time data analytics is being used to optimize call center performance in telecom firms in Kwara State, aiming to evaluate its effectiveness and identify potential improvements.
