It covers key areas as client confidentiality, avoiding conflicts of interest, and dealing with you in a professional manner every step of the way.
How will this partnership benefit clients of opus:interactive?
opus:interactive is not only a member of the MSP Alliance, it has also completed the MSP Alliance’s Accredidation Program. The MSPAlliance’s Managed Services accreditation program (MSAP) is the only best practices and standards-based program specifically created for the managed services industry, ensuring that customers receive the highest quality of reliable service.
The MSAP is the industry’s only benchmark-based program, measuring specific criteria, such as financial status, business practices, client references, service delivery processes and more. The MSAP tracks and measures companies’ professional and business capacity. Which means when it’s time for you to choose a Managed Service Provider, you’re getting a firm with a proven track record.
