A comprehensive service level agreement is an essential requirement for the provision or receipt of any important service. It quite simply defines the parameters for the delivery of that service, for the benefit of both parties.
Identifying key service level and performance metrics are key ingredients in understanding how the path towards an objective can be impacted. Consequently, by establishing a platform that systematically monitors these service level and performance metrics, CIOs and operational executives can consistently get a pulse on the health of the business. Ultimately, by tracking and measuring the performance of their various business segments, CIOs and executives are able to validate their decision-effectiveness against the intended business objectives. Negative results could indicate the need to vary existing strategies or formulate alternative strategies, while inconsistent results could point towards a lack of correlation between the objectives and their associated metrics. In either case, timely executive intervention is important in ensuring realignment of objectives, service levels, metrics, and strategies. CIO and IT Managers must be vigilant in identifying shifts in business performance. By leveraging real-time data and information, executives can become more proactive, rather than reactive, in performance management.

The quality of the agreement is therefore a matter of substantial importance. It must be complete, comprehensive and accurate in its coverage. Importantly, both parties must UNDERSTAND the contents and their obligations described within.
But where do you start? How do you establish what is required? How can you quickly understand the basics? How can you quickly create an appropriate service level agreement?
Unfortunately, creation of an appropriate and focused Service Level Agreement (SLA) is NOT a trivial task. However, it need not be a daunting experience either!
