I am trying to figure out if I am spending too much on my outsource service desk without having to send the entire thing out to bid with different vendors. Does anyone have any sugguestions on how I could getting costing data for an outsourced helpdesk?

Many Thanks!!!

Eric,

Firstly you need to look at calculating the Cost per interaction (It could be Phone or email via web).
So if your arriving X $ as cost per interaction what is the outsourcing vendor's update.
Before looking at outsourcing you can consider the following points
- Whats the current break down of phone vs Email we can look at increasing the Email volumes and reduce the phone interaction
- Look at automating processes like password reset, ID creation etc..
- Chat or Web support option

Hope it answers your question.

Prashanth
