"The recent introduction of SaaS ITSM tools has removed many of the traditional barriers to successful benchmarking," said Jeff Rumburg. "By eliminating the need for manual data entry through automatic data capture, and by providing continuous updates of performance vs. thousands of support organizations worldwide, it is now possible to benchmark service and support in real time!"

Those interested in this presentation can find a copy of the slide deck on MetricNet's website. In it, MetricNet outlines each organization's path from relative immaturity to world-class performance. Also included is objective benchmarking data that demonstrates graphically the dramatic improvements these organizations were able to achieve in Cost per Ticket, Customer Satisfaction, and key service levels as a result of real-time benchmarking.

"Real-time benchmarking is enabling organizations to dramatically accelerate their continuous improvement efforts, and reach world-class levels of performance in days or weeks, rather than months or years," said Rumburg.  "Our partnership with Samanage has allowed us to create and launch the industry's first continuous improvement benchmarking tool.  It's a game changer that gives Samanage customers a significant competitive advantage in the industry."

He is co-founder and Managing Partner of MetricNet, LLC, where he is responsible for global strategy, product development, and client engagement delivery.
