  1. Service Systems Management & Engineering (SSME)a perspective from a Practitioner 21 April 2008 Brian Mell, Global Project Executive

  2. Overview • Introduction • Overview • SSME the science • SSME the art • Examples • Metrics, SLAs • Client Satisfaction • Dashboards • Trending • Corrective Action

  3. SSME - the science • How do Service Levels get determined? • Sometimes they are pre-established • Sometimes from the client/organization • Sometimes from the service provider • Personal recommendations for best practices (some of “the art”) • As has been said “What gets measured [tends to] get(s) done” • Metrics need to be aligned to the goals of the organization and be in the control of the performing entity • Rewards incent good behavior and penalties often incent bad behavior • A composite/weighted scoring tends to encourage good behavior • Try to use established measurements rather than invent new ones • Avoid letting metrics over-ride common sense (don’t game the system; don’t blindly focus on metrics; “get out of jail” card is acceptable; achieving SLAs <> Success)

  4. SSME – Client Satisfaction Measurements • How to measure Client Satisfaction? • In a commercial relationship, this is often measured by “loyalty” • Measured by repeat/incremental business • Measured by willingness to be an official reference • Various “tiers” exist for measurement • C-Sat scoring from consumer of service (e.g., survey) • Formal input from enterprise sponsor of service • Formal input from executive sponsor (often independent) • For me, C-Sat is the best “pulse” of the service because it measures technical proficiency, perception and, importantly, the “soft skills” of the service team (e.g., professionalism, responsiveness and friendliness)
