Thesis (MTech (Quality))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2010. / Computacenter SA (CCSA), serves as focus of this study. One of CCSA's clients
is Unipart and therefore will be used as the example to mitigate the research
problem, serving to demonstrate how Service Levels are structured and how they
are monitored. According to the Company policy and agreed Service Level
Agreements (SLA's), an acceptance level of 95% should be reached in terms of
service delivery. Anything below 95% would be considered a failure, and
therefore constitutes a breach of the agreement.
The tool used by Computacenter South Africa (CCSA), to measure or monitor the
SLA is referred to as Service Flow. Within Service Flow there are mechanisms
known as 'pre exception result and a 'post exception result'. These concepts
constitute a report, which is compiled on a monthly basis to check and evaluate
performance, Should a request from a client not be met and there is a valid reason
for the non compliance of the request. It can however bean exception and can
therefore be processed as being successfully executed within the context of the
SLA. If no valid reasons are, however logged in the request work log, the request
constitutes as failed and can therefore lead to the team not achieving their agreed
SLA with the customer.
