  9. ServiceCenter is ITIL-aligned T h e t e c h n o l o g y Planning to implement service management T h e b u s i n e s s The business perspective Service management ICT infrastructure management Service Support Service support Service Delivery Service delivery Security management Application management

  10. Standard, repeatable processes • Quality • Predictability • Consistency Repeatable, documented processes are essential to improving IT service delivery and management. The ITIL framework provides an effective foundation for quality IT service management. “ITIL has gained significant traction in the last 12 months…. About a third of $1 billion-plus companies are starting to implement ITIL.” Thomas Mendel – Forrester (2004)

  11. Our commitment to ITIL ® Introduced SLA module ServiceCenter 6.0 IntroducedRequest Management 1999 2004 Continued commitment to ITIL® 1991 2000 1990 2003 1989 ServiceCenter 5.x 2005 Introduced open integration NSM platforms Introduced self service ServiceCenter 6.1 suite is reverified; problem and SLM improved per ITIL processes Introduced first service desk; CCTA initiates ITIL®

  12. Core value propositions

  13. Technicians do their jobs faster Administrators create forms with drag-and-drop tools Managers get quick, visual information to make smarter decisions Power users can create customized “perspectives” Improves productivity

  14. Unified view into relevant issues Real-time status update Drag and drop URLs, intuitive sharing features People can view and share real time charts Global language support Easy to use and communicate

  15. Improves service levels

  16. Reduces cost

  17. Reduced outages Predictable response to unplanned outages Consistent practices across disparate geographies and service desks Predictable “change” Mitigates risk

  18. Change calendar: Visibility into people, process, activity

  19. What’s the right resource allocation for service desk? How long should an incident take to resolve? How can we improve 1st call resolution? What assets perform, and what assets don’t? How often are we meeting service levels? How long does it take to provision a new employee? Making decisions based on accurate data

  20. Improved Service Level Management module Improved Problem Management module Self-service ticketing Extended web services support International support Improved user interface Change calendar – forward schedule of change New capabilities - ServiceCenter 6.1

  24. ServiceCenter web interface

  25. Goal Provides a single point of contact for all IT service issues and requests Features Provides service desk agents immediate access to all relevant caller information, such as contact info, in-depth CI info, associated SLAs, entitlements Provides best-practice links into other processes such as incident, problem and change. Calls can be categorized, prioritized and routed appropriately. Allows the maximum number of calls to be resolved in the first call, avoiding expensive and unnecessary escalation Value Designed to increase first-call resolution Supports consistent quality of service Service Management (aka call management)

  26. Service Management

  27. Incident Management • Goal • To restore normal service operation as quickly as possible and minimize the adverse impact on business operations • Features • Manages the complete incident lifecycle • Optimized for fast data entry (drop-down boxes, automatic fill, query-by-example) • Prioritizes incident resolution based on operational goals and SLAs • Automates incident assignments and escalations • Value • Promotes incident resolution in the minimal time possible

  28. Incident Management

  29. Goal Accounts for all IT assets and configurations that comprise the business services Features Establishes and tracks CI status within other processes, such as incident, problem or change Manages CI relationships such as parent/child, peer-to-peer, upstream/downstream Provides ability to analyze the impact of change, stability of system, vendor performance, asset baselines Classification schema supports incident prioritization based on CI criticality Provides audit trail for history of CI changes Value Accurate CI information is an enabler to service desk, change, problem, asset and other IT functions Configuration Management

  30. Configuration Management

  31. Goal Helps prevent the recurrence of incidents Features Allows IT to identify, correlate and resolve interrelated incidents from disparate segments of the infrastructure Supports ITIL-based workflow, problem and error control process Helps prevent the recurrence of incidents by enabling technicians to review known errors and initiative changes to resolve them Treats problem records separately to incidents, allowing a one-to-many relationship Allows routing of problem records technicians based on skill set, location and availability Value Allows problems to be isolated and correlated to multiple incidents, thereby accelerating incident resolution Problem Management

  32. Problem Management

  33. Goal Control over the enter change lifecycle – from request through approval, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation Features Powerful phase and task-oriented change management Manages both planned and unplanned changes Automates the approval process, assesses the risk involved, allows for a back-out plan and enforces consistent processes Accommodates complex changes with multiple parallel tasks, phases and dependencies Highly tailorable to accommodate unique and complex change processes Graphical workflow capability Change calendar provides global view in Outlook format Value Improves service quality due to the reduction of change-related incidents Decreases time and resources required to complete a change Ensures compliance standards are maintained Change Management

  34. Change Management

  35. Goal To maintain and improve IT service quality through a constant cycle of agreeing, monitoring and reporting to meet the customer’s business objectives Features Provides the means to develop and execute on specific service and operational level agreements Allows IT to define service level objectives and expectations Provides a catalog approach to building specific SLOs Automatically prioritizes work queues based on SLA parameters Provides alerts, auto escalation and robust reporting Value Provides visibility into cost of service and service delivery metrics Service Level Management

  36. Service Level Management

  37. Goal Provides control and management for repetitive IT tasks Features Unlimited number of maintenance tasks Out-of-box templates Alerts for pending tasks Value Ensures execution on maintenance service agreements Allows IT to perform maintenance at the optimum time and with minimal user impact Scheduled Maintenance

  38. Scheduled Maintenance

  39. Request Management Goal • Provide comprehensive, automated management of service request lifecycle, from point of request through fulfillment Features • Provides orders and tasks to be organized, sequenced and managed • Graphical workflow shows process phases and tasks • Procurement and receipt capabilities provide fulfillment Value • Reduces costs and streamlines fulfillment of goods and services

  40. Request Management

  41. Goal Allows management of asset contracts Features Establishes contract management and tracking provisions Allows documented parts and labor cost for all tasks Enables cost roll-ups for service level management Provides notification for key lease or contract expirations Value Provides cost control measures throughout the portfolio Asset Contract Management

  42. Self Service Ticketing

  43. Administration There are a variety of tools for managing the ServiceCenter suite.The Support tools define the data that underpins the processes including contacts, locations, vendors, etc. Utilities manage the server and database environments.

  44. Transition slide Technology and architecture

  45. ServiceCenter architecture • Three-tiered client/server architecture • Ultra-thin client processes keyboard events only • Extensive client platform support from phones, Windows and the web • All application processing occurs on the application server • Application server layer forks processes for every client connection • Database layer is accessed via native SQL calls; e.g. Oracle OCI • Massive client and server scalability Presentation Applications Database
