SIAM (service integration and management) is an evolution of how to apply a framework for integrated service management across multiple service providers. It has developed as organizations have moved away from outsourced contracts with a single supplier to an environment with multiple service providers.

SIAM supports cross-functional, cross-process and cross-provider integration. It creates an environment where all parties:

• Know their role, responsibilities and context in the ecosystem
• Are empowered to deliver
• Are held accountable for the outcomes they are required to deliver
