CPI for Enterprise IT

Enterprise Menu

"Benchmarking has been a vital tool in our quest to deliver IT services to our business at the optimum cost per business transaction.  The CPI benchmarking results, and the confidential sharing of practices with other participants, have either given us new insights into cost/efficiency improvements or have reinforced and quantified our own perception of where such improvements can be made. We are implementing these improvements with proactive procurement activities and a strong focus on service level management."
