Service Capability & Performance (SCP) Standards
Certification for support, eService, field service, and professional services organizations
The Service Capability & Performance (SCP) Standards cover four disciplines of service operations: support, eService, field service, and professional services. Organizations earn certification by completing a comprehensive audit of service operations, then recertify annually to confirm they still meet the requirements.
The SCP Standards were developed by Service Strategies with about 50 leading service and support organizations, and have been in use worldwide since 1998. They go beyond a simple quality program. They give companies a shared framework for measuring performance, applying best practices, and working with a community committed to better service.
