Average Handle Time (AHT)
• Suggested Goal for Metric The AHT goal would depend on call center type. We
suggest targeting the average between 3 and 10 minutes (+) or (–) 15%.
It’s probably best if you can develop a range based on call types and shifts. By Creating a range that is acceptable you avoid the single number target issue
