SLAs and KPIs

As one of the key divisions in the company providing critical services to the Business and IT, the Sourcing and Procurement Office need to be able to assess the efficiency and effectiveness of provider service, in pursuit of a achieving the goals set from sourcing re focus, flexibility, quality of the service, efficiency, and cost of service delivery.

In an environment of multiple service providers, multiple Contracts and the involvement of multiple IT functions in the delivery of the 'COE', it must be possible to track, measure, monitor, compare and report performances by Contracts by Service providers across all the participating COEs to ensure that the organizational goals are met with.

Further, it must also be possible to aggregate/ cumulate the data collected for each of the involved Contract / Service Provider / COEs to report a single end to end value for each Metric. This means that it is necessary to be consistent in the implementation of the metrics across all the Contract / Service Provider / COEs.

Given this and more, our CSAs (Certified Sourcing Auditors) will work with you to better your SLAs (Service Level Agreements) and KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) landscape in terms of how the SLAs are set, captured, reported and improved year over year.
