Implementation and Management of Service Level Agreements

Implementation and Management of Service Level Agreements

Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are extensively utilised to define the scope of work and key responsibilities between a customer and a service provider. Given their ubiquity in modern business relationships, it is fundamental that all relevant personnel are familiar with the defining characteristics of SLAs and how the design and implementation of these contracts can impact operational efficiency and brand reputation.
