What's in scope

The heavy lifting your floor manager doesn't have time for.

Day-to-day operations

Campaign setup tweaks, list management, disposition tuning, dial-level recommendations, hopper-rate adjustments, schedule changes. The things your supervisor would do if they had VICIdial in their bones.

Performance tuning

Drop rate too high? Connect rate sliding? Answer-machine misclassification? We profile the campaign, audit the carrier setup, look at the historical patterns, and make concrete recommendations — usually inside an hour.

Carrier troubleshooting

When your trunk is acting up and the carrier blames VICIdial, we step in. SIP traces, PJSIP debug, codec negotiations, RTP path verification — and the diplomatic patience to coordinate with the carrier support engineer.

Compliance gut-check

TCPA scrub setup, recording retention policy, DNC list ingestion, state-by-state compliance posture. We are not lawyers (and say so) but we know the operational shape of compliant dialing in the US, UK, AU.

Incident heavy-lifting

Box unreachable, MariaDB crash, Asterisk core dump, runaway dialplan — we take the wheel. Standard support runs tickets; retainer gets a named engineer on the box within minutes.

QA + agent ops review

Monthly review of agent stats, recording samples, disposition trends. We surface the patterns your floor manager is too close to see — the agent who handles long calls but lower close rate, the campaign that needs a script rewrite.
