Building on Vendor Management good practice, Service Integration and Management (SIAM) is a model adopted by organisations all over the world, that enables the effective management of multiple providers, and harmonisation of processes, people, roles and technologies across IT eco-systems.
Why is SIAM important?
A SIAM model simplifies the management of multiple vendors and allows issues to be dealt with centrally and resolved in a controlled manner. For your organisation and suppliers, it identifies single points of contact and enables you to manage risk and compliance across your technology estate and service offering(s).
Furthermore, using a SIAM model provides improved access to the latest technology, and the ability to implement new services quicker and more flexibly, realising benefits that would not have been seen otherwise.
