Key Performance Indicator (KPI)
The Desktop Support Balanced Scorecard
Step 1
Eight critical
performance
metrics have been
selected for the
scorecard
Step 2
Each metric has been
weighted according to its
relative importance
Step 3
For each performance metric,
the highest and lowest
performance levels in the
benchmark are recorded
Step 4
Your actual
performance for
each metric is
recorded in this
column
Step 5
Your score for each
metric is then
calculated: (worst case
– actual performance) /
(worst case – best
case) X 100
Step 6
Your balanced score for each
metric is calculated: metric
score X weighting

Key SPOC Principles
Key SPOC Principles
 Enterprise takes an end-to-end view of user
support
 User/Customer has a single point of contact
for all IT-related incidents, questions,
problems, and work requests
 The Level 1 Service Desk is the SPOC
 Level 1 is responsible for:
 Ticket triage
 Resolution at Level 1 if possible
 Effective handoffs to n level support
 Resolution coordination and facilitation
 Ticket closure
 Desktop “Drive-bys”, “Fly-bys”, and “Snags”
are strongly discouraged

Driving Individual Accountability: The Technician Scorecard
Step 1
Eight critical
performance
metrics have been
selected for the
scorecard
Step 2
Each metric has been
weighted according to its
relative importance
Step 3
For each performance metric,
the highest and lowest
performance levels in the
benchmark are recorded
Step 4
Your actual
performance for
each metric is
recorded in this
column
Step 5
Your score for each
metric is then
calculated: (worst case
– actual performance) /
(worst case –best case)
X 100
Step 6
Your balanced score for each
metric is calculated: metric
score X weighting

The Paradox of IT Support
 Less than 5% of all IT spending is
allocated to end-user support
 Service desk, desktop support,
field support
 This leads many to erroneously
assume that there is little upside
opportunity in IT support
 The result is that most support
organizations are managed with the
goal of minimizing costs
 But the most effective support
strategies focus on maximizing
value

 Desktop Support is now being managed as a strategic asset within the
enterprise
 One that can reduce the overall cost of IT
 Dramatically improve the productivity of end-users
 And drive a positive view of IT
 World-Class Desktop Support organizations have a number of success
factors in common
1. Part of an end-to-end support process
2. An understanding of the economics of TCO for user support
3. Active efforts to maximize First Contact, and First Level resolution rates
4. Use performance metrics diagnostically and prescriptively
5. Invest in technician training, coaching, and career pathing
