Includes KCS Article Quality Index (AQI) Checks

The Knowledge Quality tool indicates the overall quality of your knowledgebase.

Edison, NJ (May 27, 2015) – RightAnswers, Inc., the #1 provider of cloud-based knowledge management software and services for delivering SmartService™, has unveiled in its latest release an automated Knowledge Quality tool to ensure the knowledge base is populated with useful knowledge for customer service and support.

RightAnswers’ Knowledge Quality tool automatically calculates article quality based on more than a dozen criteria, such as duplicates, spelling, article length, use of multimedia and use of certain fields. In addition, service organizations can create their own custom quality checks for parameters that are meaningful to them.

For organizations that follow the Knowledge-Centered Support (KCS) methodology, the tool includes built-in KCS Article Quality Index (AQI) checks. You can select the most meaningful criteria to count toward article quality.

“Prior to our Knowledge Quality tool, customer service organizations could only do spot checks on around 10–20% of their knowledge base and conduct periodic knowledge audits. Our Knowledge Quality tool monitors knowledge quality in real time, giving management, as well as customer service agents, increased confidence that the knowledge base is filled with useful knowledge,” explains Simon Yelsky, Vice President Product Management and Marketing, RightAnswers.

Improved knowledge quality will increase support agent adoption of the knowledge management initiative, which results in better customer service and satisfaction.

Gamification is built into the Knowledge Quality tool, providing knowledge authors with a quality score for the knowledge they create. In addition, the tool assigns the knowledge base an overall quality score and flags knowledge requiring improvement.
