Thanks, Gordon, for the response. The raw number of calls dropped quite a bit, but there were no significant changes in right party contacts. That's what's got me wondering exactly what's going on. It's as though the speed of the campaigns reverted back to how it was before I put in the 'set stage' actions. Where a particular campaign may have taken an hour or two to complete, it is now taking 3-4 hours or more with no change in call results.
In an interesting turn of events, it seems to be getting a little better despite me having made no changes.

Have you evaluated the results of your calls? How many attempts have you made on the data, have you completed/contacted a large percentage of it? the call results usually show the best indication of what may be the issue - a higher level of no answers or dead lines for example. If the data is more than 50% through then the vast majority of what you have left will have a higher number of non-connects as a result.

Yesterday afternoon into today our predictive calling seems to have significantly slowed, with agents spending more and more time in between calls. Since implementing the 'set stage' action in my scripts a couple of months ago, the pace has been fairly consistent until now. I'm curious if others have experienced something similar, and/or for any possible explanations/suggestions/recommendations. There has not been any significant change in the list itself, the number of agents, or the campaign settings. I'm stumped. I'll also note that our power campaign is continuing to run with the efficiency.
