From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Customer Service Index for Procurement organizations (CSIP) is a procurement management tool and key process indicator that measures the level of internal customer service provided by a procurement department. The index was developed based on the concepts of customer perceptions [1] and service parameters set by the service provider up front [2]. CSIP’s formula takes into account intangible factors such as customer satisfaction surveys and tangible ones such as purchase order lead times. A customer service index can be a number between 0 (lowest) and 100 (highest). The higher the index, the higher will be the contribution of the department to company’s bottom line. The index can also be considered a reliability indicator of the procurement department.

The metric was developed by (and is a service mark) of Miguel Salcedo. It was first introduced by Salcedo in his 2017 SSRN research article “Customer service in procurement organizations” [3]
