BCS Exam MBP18 Topic 1 Question 33 Discussion

Actual exam question for BCS's MBP18 exam
Question #: 33
Topic #: 1
[All MBP18 Questions]

The CC call center handles telephone enquiries for six logistic and haulage companies. These enquiries range from the potential placement of business contracts through to complaints from individual customers.

The contractual arrangement between CCC and each company stipulates how quickly the phone should the answered (defined as a maximum number of rings) and the maximum number of calls the center will take each hour for the company. CCC also monitors the duration of calls, the actual number of calls per hour answered by each operator and how many calls to be escalated to the next level of support.

Which of the following includes an internal and external performance measure?

I'm leaning towards C as well. The other options either don't include both internal and external measures, or they don't quite fit the scenario described in the question.

Haha, I can just imagine the call center operators scrambling to answer the phone before the maximum number of rings. It's like a race against the clock!

I agree with Lasandra. The time taken to answer the phone is something the call center can control and monitor internally, while the maximum number of calls per hour is a contractual requirement set by the client company.

The question seems to be testing our understanding of performance measures, both internal and external. I think the correct answer is C, as the time taken to answer the phone is an internal measure, while the maximum number of calls per hour is an external measure set by the company.

Yeah, I agree. Time taken to answer the phone is definitely an internal measure, while the maximum number of calls per hour is set externally by the company.

I think you're right, C seems to be the correct answer. It makes sense that one is internal and the other is external.

Hmm, that makes sense too. Both internal and external performance measures are important.
