Service Contract

Each service has a service contract, and that contract explains the critical information about the service:

1. What the service is and the user needs it meets
2. What lifecycle stage the service is at
3. What evolutionary stage the service is at
4. How the service is used
5. How the performance of the service is measured
6. How to get help when the service isn't performing as expected
7. What other services the service depends upon

There is a template service contract to help you get started.
