Seminar: Service Desk and SLM

This seminar takes place on 12th September 2012 at the Museum of Science & Industry, Manchester

 

"Service Desk and Service Level Management"

 

The service desk is on the frontline of IT, under pressure to increase service quality, reduce cost and generally do more with less. Many service desks managers are still searching for the right tools to help them move on from their traditional fire-fighting role, freeing up time to focus on customer expectations and continual service improvement. Others are exploring new ways of working, introducing technologies to support self-service and the growing range of IT devices that are in use in today's business environment.

Whatever kind of service desk you run, and whatever your priorities, the processes that underpin the service desk itself and the key interfaces between the service desk, service level management and the service catalogue are fundamental to your long-term success.

This seminar explains how to put those processes and interfaces in place and build a service environment where customer expectations are met every time.
