A Statement of the Value that Service and Support
will Create for the Enterprise

A Statement of Your Competitive Advantage

Sample Value Proposition

The XYZ Support Center is committed to quickly
and efficiently resolving customer problems and
service requests. We pledge to achieve
measurable cost savings of at least two times our
annual budget, and remain in the top quartile of all
service and support organizations. We will do this
while maintaining a 92% or higher customer
satisfaction rating.

15
The Maturity Continuum in IT Service and Support
Reactive Stage



Newer and less evolved
support organizations
are in this category



A reactive “fire-fighting”
mentality prevails at this
stage





Focus tends to be almost
exclusively on service
level compliance
Support is continuously
playing catch-up with
user needs and
expectations

Growth Stage









Heavy investments in
training, tools, and
metrics characterize this
stage
A knowledge base of
problem solutions is
typically established
An expert network of
problem solvers is
developed outside of
support
User self-help begins:
user-enabled password
resets, user searchable
knowledge base

© MetricNet, LLC, www.metricnet.com

Strategic Stage









The primary purpose of a
strategic support
organization is to make end
users more productive, and
to drive a positive view of IT
A preventive, proactive
culture prevails
Support anticipates user
needs and expectations, and
provides services
accordingly
Customer enthusiasm
and value creation is the
goal!

Sources of Value: IT Service and Support
IT Service and Support can create value in a number of ways:


Reducing ticket volume through technology and Root Cause
Analysis



Improving end-user productivity by reducing incident resolution
times



Minimizing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by maximizing level 1
resolution rates



Mitigating the effects of unplanned downtime through planning,
prevention, and aggressive remediation

Key SPOC Principles
Key SPOC Principles


Enterprise takes an end-to-end view of user
support



User/Customer has a single point of contact
for all IT-related incidents, questions,
problems, and work requests



The Level 1 Service Desk is the SPOC



Level 1 is responsible for:



Resolution at Level 1 if possible



Effective handoffs to n level support



Resolution coordination and facilitation





Ticket triage

Ticket closure

Desktop “Drive-bys”, “Fly-bys”, and “Snags”
are strongly discouraged

Two Metrics You Should Know

that could have been resolved at level 1 support.

The Maturity Continuum in IT Service and Support Reactive Stage  Newer and less evolved support organizations are in this category  A reactive “fire-fighting” mentality prevails at this stage   Focus tends to be almost exclusively on service level compliance Support is continuously playing catch-up with user needs and expectations Growth Stage     Heavy investments in training, tools, and metrics characterize this stage A knowledge base of problem solutions is typically established An expert network of problem solvers is developed outside of support User self-help begins: user-enabled password resets, user searchable knowledge base © MetricNet, LLC, www.metricnet.com Strategic Stage     The primary purpose of a strategic support organization is to make end users more productive, and to drive a positive view of IT A preventive, proactive culture prevails Support anticipates user needs and expectations, and provides services accordingly Customer enthusiasm and value creation is the goal! 16
