Under the agreement, Sea-Level will offer its clients an elevated consulting offering called Value Creation Coaching (VCC) to enable clients to reach their value creation goal more quickly and with less risk. VCC adds two additional Service Leadership products to Sea-Level’s toolkit: the Service Leadership Index® (S-L Index™) Service Executive Quarterly Benchmark Report Book™ (SE QBRB™), and the Operational Maturity Level™ diagnostic and acceleration tool, SLIQ™.

With VCC, Sea-Level becomes the first Service Leadership-certified coaching firm in the industry. Service Leadership strategically selected Sea-Level as its first certified MSP industry consultant due to its long relationship and desire to deliver the premium VCC service to clients. For Sea-Level, the extended agreement strengthens its ability to deliver value and results for MSP firms. The partnership also provides Sea-Level’s consulting staff the opportunity to enhance their professional skills to drive more significant outcomes for clients.

This step also marks the launch of Service Leadership’s certification program for MSP industry consultants, coaches, and peer group operators. Already the most broadly used Solution Provider benchmarking and best practices toolset in the industry, Service Leadership now offers industry experts worldwide the ability to enhance and differentiate its value propositions and scale its client or membership base more quickly and safely.

“Sea-Level Operations is the largest MSP consulting company in the industry, which has been greatly enhanced by the five-year partnership with Sea-Level leveraging our S-L Index Owner Quarterly Benchmark Report Book™ (Owner QBRB™),” said Paul Dippell, founder and former CEO at Service Leadership, Inc, and vice president of ecosystem evangelism at ConnectWise. “We are excited to extend the partnership for another five years, adding the SE QBRB and SLIQ. Rex Frank and his team have a remarkable track record of helping their MSP clients achieve successful growth, becoming the industry’s largest consulting firm as a result.”
