    Mastering Service Level Agreements and Contracts

    Course Introduction

    By no means does any business operate in isolation.  A company may provide product and service offerings that rely on other service providers to help them deliver on their customer value proposition.  For instance, a motor vehicle manufacturer relies on various other service providers to supply various parts and components to build complete vehicles.  Service providers first need to be identified and also verified as to their ability to deliver.  Hence, it is therefore necessary to ensure that every service provider delivers to the required standard and during a stipulated timeframe to ensure all round seamless delivery.  One way to do this is to have a service level agreement (SLA) in place with each and every supplier so that appropriate contracts may be drawn up and realistic delivery standards put in place.

    The material covered in the Mastering Service Level Agreements and Contracts course will help you to identify the most appropriate service provision required and to source and select appropriate service providers for your needs as well as verify their ability to make good on their promise.
