成本模型应该是一个非常重要的技术for deriving and forecasting the actual cost of a product/service over the forecasted period. It serves as a competitive edge for supplier negotiations by determining the actual price for the cost components. The outcome helps procurement leaders to understand detailed fact-based cost drivers for the category.
In the contact centers category intelligence study, we have estimated and forecasted pricing for the key cost components while availing services from contact centers. Salaries of variable labor are the largest cost component of contact center services. It accounted for more than 60% share in overall contact center service cost. The cost of facilities also plays an important role in the should-cost analysis of contact center services. The cost of facilities has shown erratic trends. While the rental rates have been on a constant rise in the pre-Covid-19 era, the pandemic has resulted in employees working from home or remote locations and forced companies to upgrade their IT infrastructure to facilitate this change. Since most of these IT investments are of a CAPEX nature, these changes are expected to be sustainable. Hence, there is uncertainty about offices having 100% occupancy post the pandemic as well. With several contact centers not renewing contracts and limiting their physical real estate space, rental rates have dropped significantly. While chances of employees resuming offices physically post the pandemic are moderate to high, it is highly unlikely that rental rates will increase at the rate it used to before the pandemic.
Every organization and its procurement team wants to negotiate the best deal while procuring a set of products or services. Rate benchmarking uses price/cost comparison of more than one set of products/services to analyze the most efficient combination that will help the procurement team to get the optimum rate.
Software development is one of the most important aspects while analyzing the rate benchmarking of contact center services. In our research, we have analyzed the hourly rates of contact center software development per region by using the rate benchmarking method. We found that the average contact center software development cost in the APAC region is 70%-80%% lower than the cost of North America and Western Europe. Moreover, the cost of CSR and supervisors are 20%-30% lower in APAC compare to the rest of the world.
