10. Vertical Growth – Adding New Services
Use a standard process and tools to evaluate and justify the addition of future services
— Analysis should include alignment with strategy, resource impact, impact on call quality (e.g.,
average speed to answer), ability to leverage the service among all customers
— Set necessary sign-offs required to add a service
Set standards to which candidate processes or services must adhere
— Typically, the service center will want an incoming process “cleaned” to a certain level before it
assumes responsibility
The service requestor should include the following with each new service request:
— Submitted by
— Describe the proposed service or services to be transitioned and provide the appropriate
process flows (current and proposed future state)
— Current service owner (function, name, title)
— Positions performing the work today (position titles, FTEs)
— Customers of the service (who and number of customers)
— Systems or technology used to perform the service today (list and describe how used)
— Current performance measures used (list and note current performance)
— Current work volumes
— Describe nature of work volumes (steady, cyclical, peaks, etc.)
— Proposed timing for transition of service to SSC
