For enterprise IT professionals, close scrutiny is the word of the day--of IT expenditures, use of those expenditures, and IT's ability to demonstrate real business value. The ability to maintain competitive, consistent levels of business and IT service is no longer a potential advantage?it is a business imperative.

- What is SLM?
- The Core Constituencies for SLM

- Weighing SLM Benefits vs. SLM Costs
- 5 Essential Steps to a Successful SLM Program
