Our Technical Service Managers (TSM) produce Service performance reports, oversee incidents, problems and changes on the Service and provide escalation points for both our Clients and within the business as required. They act on behalf of both parties to ensure smooth delivery of Services to contracted service levels, manage the costs to deliver them whilst continually working with all parties to find improvements to the Service.
