Effective SLAs are extremely important to ensure effective outsourcing engagements. The metrics used to measure and manage performance to SLA commitments are the heart of a successful agreement and are a critical factor in long-term success.

Fortunately, while reaching for perfection is difficult and costly, most companies can achieve their objectives through a carefully chosen set of collected metrics.
