System and Method for Controlling Calls for Contact Centers
First Claim
1. A computer system for controlling calls to a call target, comprising:
- a processor in communication with non-volatile memory, the non-volatile memory executing code comprising;
code for receiving call target information relating to the call target;
code for accessing a database and retrieving a contact rate for a time period for the call target;
code for placing a call target identifier in a queue indicating the call target will be called during the time period, when the time period for the call target has a contact rate greater than a threshold rate;
code for placing a call to the call target during the time period; and
code for updating the contact rate based on an outcome of the call.

Abstract
A computer system for controlling calls to a call target, including a processor in communication with non-volatile memory, the non-volatile memory executing code including code for receiving call target information relating to the call target, code for accessing a database and retrieving a contact rate for a time period for the call target, code for placing a call target identifier in a queue indicating the call target will be called during the time period, when the time period has a contact rate greater than a threshold rate, code for placing a call to the call target during the time period, and code for updating the contact rate based on an outcome of the call.

15. A computer system for controlling calls to a call target, comprising:
-
a processor in communication with non-volatile memory, the non-volatile memory executing code comprising; code for receiving call target information relating to the call target; code for determining the telephone number associated with the call target is an active telephone number; code for accessing a database and retrieving a contact rate for a time period for the call target; code for performing a regulatory check for the call target; code for placing a call to the active telephone number of the call target during the time period, when the time period for the call target has a contact rate greater than a threshold rate and when no regulatory violation is found; and code for updating the contact rate based on an outcome of the call.
