About the Presentation

Northumbrian Water Ltd (NWL) and the University of Teesside (UoT) have been working as partners since August 2008 under a Collaboration Innovation Partnership (CIP) part funded by the local Regional Development Agency, One North East. The partnership was formed to implement a service management process within NWL over a six month period. UoT was selected as the Collaboration Partner they deliver service management as part of their curriculum.

This presentation will describe the CIP and its benefits, move on to the challenges of delivering service management in Higher Education and finish by questioning the role that business and education play in the service management arena.
