Service gap model
Since CSI involves ongoing change, it is important to develop an effective communication strategy to support CSI activities – ensuring people remain appropriately informed. This communication must include aspects of what the service implications are, what the impact on the personnel is and the approach or process used to reach the objective. In the absence of truth, people will fill in the gap with their own truth.
Perception will play a key role in determining the success of any CSI initiative. Proper reporting should assist in addressing the misconceptions about the improvements. It is important to understand why there are differences in perception between the customer and the service provider. Figure 2.4 identifies the most obvious potential gaps in the service lifecycle from both a business and an IT perspective:

Service Level Management has the task of ensuring that potential gaps are managed and that when there is a gap, to identify if there is a need for a Service Improvement Plan (SIP). Often a large gap exists between what the customer wants, what they actually need, and what they are willing to pay for. Add to this the fact that IT will often try to define and deliver what they ‘think’ the customer wants. As a result, it is not surprising that there is a perception and delivery gap between the Customer and IT.
