How Gartner helped
A Gartner advisor helped select key performance indicators to bake into the rollout plan and develop SLAs to standardize across the agency, and provided shared service best practices and peer examples to inform the DCFO’s thinking. Establishing goals help articulate the benefits of shared service and encouraged system adoption, while defining services and service levels provided a basis for subagencies’ cooperation.
