Service Oriented Management Made Simple for Small Business Owners

  • Řízení služeb se zaměřuje na poskytování a kvalitu služeb tedy na výstupy namísto procesů, produktů nebo projektů.

Why Do Companies Need to Manage Services? 

  1. Companies buy services: many services are purchased by companies and organizations because it is either cost-effective or necessary, and they cannot provide them on their own. Purchased services are your expenses.
  2. Companies also provide services to their customers either as their main product or as a complement to their products; such services generate revenue.
  3. Companies also need a range of internal, support services, which help ensure smooth business operations.

Service management is a way of managing processes and activities with a focus on services: here the emphasis is on outputs and their quality that are evaluated and purchased by the customer. Unlike process-oriented management, which focuses on the process and how it is performed, service-oriented management concentrates on the output and its parameters (see SLA).
