Slide 5

Slithery helmets and suchlike

• Reducing resistance

• Not just technology

• Doing the right things

• NOT doing the wrong things

• Fixed wheel or freewheel

• Wasted efforts – bikes & ITSM

Gap to

ProcessesSupporting our services

This also needs attention

Service – getting you somewhere want have

Process improvement ≠ service improvement

Page 7: IT In The Park 2016

Slide 7

Finding things to do – and not to do

• Potentially useful techniques scattered across the ITIL Landscape

– Vital Business Function

– Patterns of Business Activity

– Critical Business Period

– Duke of York factor

• Save strength and resources for when you have to pedal uphill

– Energy of course

– Favours and understanding too

Page 8: IT In The Park 2016

Slide 8

Measure wisely

• Try to resist

–Spurious accuracy

–Over sampling

–Repetition beyond reinforcement

• Put in the work to do less in the long term – finding the easy ones that deliver

• And – of course – measure the right things

Page 9: IT In The Park 2016

Slide 9

And everything changes …

Page 10: IT In The Park 2016

Is it time for a

change to

Change

Management?IAN STEVENS ITIL EXPERT, MBCS

Page 11: IT In The Park 2016

My Opinion

Too many organisations I see are doing everything the

ITIL Service Transition volume says they can.

Change Management really shouldn’t be as

complicated as people make it. And it should work for

whoever needs to use it.

Whilst CAB has it’s place it shouldn’t be the ONLY place

for discussing changes and authorising them.

If your Change Management Process hasn’t been

changed during it’s lifetime then I highly suspect it is

wrong for your organisation NOW.

Page 12: IT In The Park 2016

What are the top five issues

that are seen in Change

Management?

Page 13: IT In The Park 2016

1. Too many changes to keep track of.

2. People who ignore the change

process.3. Changes that go wrong.

4. Lots of Emergency Changes.

5. Nobody comes to CAB.

Page 14: IT In The Park 2016

Nobody comes to CAB?

Too many irrelevant changes?

Too much discussion?

Changes they are not interested in?

Why is CAB weekly?

Why is CAB needed anyway?

vCAB?

Increase frequency/decrease length/improve focus

Invite suggestions for improvement at EVERY CAB.

Page 15: IT In The Park 2016

Lots of Emergency Changes?

Your change processes are not

embedded?

Your Change Manager is weak?

Criteria for eChange is easy?

Immature ITSM culture?

Page 16: IT In The Park 2016

Changes that go wrong?

Do you track Changes that go

wrong?

What do you do about them?

Shouldn’t you be learning from them?

Page 17: IT In The Park 2016

People who ignore the change

process?

Change process too complicated.

People not trained on what to do.

Resistance to change.

Page 18: IT In The Park 2016

Too many changes to keep track

of?

Are your ‘rules’ too strict?

Are you making the effort to move

Standard Changes into Service Requests?

Are you reviewing all Changes at EVERY

CAB?

Is your Change Manager actually

managing?

Page 19: IT In The Park 2016

So what can we do?

Keep it simple, stupid.

Communicate the change process

clearly to ALL levels.

Continuously Improve your process

BE STRONG!

Jo HarleySwansea City Council

Page 23: IT In The Park 2016

Swift Swansea Switch

Remedy Replaced and assyst

implemented throughout the council in

only 106 days

Jo Harley

Information and Strategy Manager

Page 24: IT In The Park 2016

Background to the City and

County of Swansea • Serves an area of 378 sq km and a population of more than 240,000

• Second largest unitary authority in Wales

• Employs more than 11,000 staff

• Supports 98 schools

• The ICT service has over 100 staff supporting both the schools and

corporate environment

Page 25: IT In The Park 2016

Consolidation of Service Desks and

Internal Processes• assyst has been used to manage IT service for

schools since June 2004

• All other corporate departments were covered by an

outsource contract and used Remedy

• That outsource contract terminated on 31st

December 2015 with transition to a new service desk

required by the end of October 2015

Page 26: IT In The Park 2016

Project Requirements• Initial scoping: February 2015 when it was suggested the

council upgrade the existing system and expand the

licence base

• It quickly became apparent a larger project was required

– Internal processes were different between schools

and the other departments

– Requirement to provide self-service facilities in line

with the Digital Strategy

Page 27: IT In The Park 2016

Project Overview• Two service desks into one in 106 days:

– Complete reimplementation to the latest version of the

software (SP2 to SP6)

– Introduction of password reset functionality

– Introduction of Self Service Portal

– Moved the council from Windows to Web

– CSGs to keep school and corporate data separate

– Change Management for corporate - different from how

the schools were doing it

Page 28: IT In The Park 2016

106 days from scoping to go live

development to live

Page 29: IT In The Park 2016

Transition from Development to Live

• CCS and Axios had 1 week from 24th

September to make the smooth transition

from development to live

• Data was transferred from the old system

• Problem-free go-live day on 1st October

Page 30: IT In The Park 2016

The 1st 30 Days

• By the end of October 2015:

– Transition away from Remedy complete

– Self service rolled out to all staff

– Training provided by the in-house team

– Communication to staff regarding the new features and promotion of

what they could now deliver themselves which facilitated business buy-

in and uptake.

Page 31: IT In The Park 2016

Results Timeline

First 90 Days (Dec 2016)

• 9.4% incidents logged on self service portal

• 75% changes logged on self service portal

• 4.43 out of 5 for customer sat

March 2016

• 24% incidents logged on self service portal incl. password reset

• 95% changes logged on self service portal

• 4.47 out of 5 for customer sat

September 2016

• 33.5% incidents logged on self service portal incl. password reset

• 97% changes logged on self service portal

• 4.54 out of 5 for customer sat

Page 32: IT In The Park 2016

The Benefits

1. Project deadlines were all achieved

2. There was minimal disruption to all users

3. System is more performant

4. Functionality is greater

5. Axios Consultants were excellent

Page 33: IT In The Park 2016

Lessons Learned

• More knowledge transfer from previous desk and

process documents to review new processes and

identify ones

• Password reset – on site rather than remote support

• Longer implementation so we could have fully

captured the on and off system processes and put

more detailed work flow in place prior to go live

Page 34: IT In The Park 2016

Service Desk Improvements Post

Project Implementation

• ICT Team Leaders and users engaged for suggestions

• Phase 2 implementation from original scoping

• Improved reporting for ICT teams and users

• Improved Knowledge Database for Service Desk Team

Page 35: IT In The Park 2016

Future Plans – Aligned to Digital

Strategy and CCS Transformation

• Continuous Service Desk Improvement

End user Agent

Let’s look at our key stakeholders...

Page 49: IT In The Park 2016

If the printer’s not

been working for 3

days, why didn’t you

raise a ticket?

What’s a ticket?

Hello, end user!

Page 50: IT In The Park 2016

4 aspects of an end user journey

Navigation Access Information Communication

Page 51: IT In The Park 2016

Navigation

Navigation

Page 52: IT In The Park 2016

It was so easy!

Page 53: IT In The Park 2016
Page 54: IT In The Park 2016

Left or right...you decide

Page 55: IT In The Park 2016
Page 56: IT In The Park 2016

And once I got on the train….

Page 57: IT In The Park 2016

How did they make me feel so comfortable?

Page 58: IT In The Park 2016

When I broke it down...

When I had a choice, I had information too.

Information = understandable, minimal, necessary & relevant

Page 59: IT In The Park 2016

What if we apply this in our Service desk?

Page 60: IT In The Park 2016

This is how it looked before

Page 61: IT In The Park 2016
Page 62: IT In The Park 2016
Page 63: IT In The Park 2016

What can we learn?

Whenever the end user has to make a choice in your self service

portal, check if they have enough information to make that

choice.

If they don’t, give them the information.

Page 64: IT In The Park 2016

Ease of access

Page 65: IT In The Park 2016

When in doubt, pick up the phone

Few seconds later...

Page 66: IT In The Park 2016

What can we learn?Make sure the Self service portal is within their reach.

Few suggestions:

● On their desktop screens

● On a website they’re already logged into (eg. Intranet)

● On their mobile phones

Page 67: IT In The Park 2016

Information...or in our language, KBase

How do I restart my laptop?1. On the bottom right of your screen, press the (-) Icon

2. Find the Settings icon on the right side of your screen

3. Click on the power button

4. Click “Restart” to restart your computer

Page 70: IT In The Park 2016

How do I restart my laptop?

Page 71: IT In The Park 2016

What can we learn?

Always talk the end user language.

Use visual means of communications wherever possible (Screenshots,

Flowcharts)

Page 72: IT In The Park 2016

Communication

Page 73: IT In The Park 2016

Once upon a time, I wrote to support...

Page 74: IT In The Park 2016
Page 75: IT In The Park 2016

Why was I so frustrated?

Page 76: IT In The Park 2016

Look at all these emails I’m not gonna read!

Page 77: IT In The Park 2016

Dear customer,

We appreciate-

Where is my

solution?

Page 78: IT In The Park 2016

What can we learn?Every communication to the customer should:

a) Take them one step closer to the solution

b) Give them new information/update

Page 79: IT In The Park 2016

Not giving them a bad experience has its benefits...

Page 80: IT In The Park 2016

Context Clicks

Page 83: IT In The Park 2016

Context is everything

Page 84: IT In The Park 2016

Let’s say I’m a bartender...

Page 85: IT In The Park 2016

Requester information

CRM Tool

Asset info

Similar tickets

And who knows what else they need...

Page 86: IT In The Park 2016

All the information needed...in a single view

Page 87: IT In The Park 2016
Page 88: IT In The Park 2016

What can we learn?

Get all the information they might need into a single screen

Be careful to notoverload!

Page 89: IT In The Park 2016

Clicks

Page 90: IT In The Park 2016

In a normal world… 8 clicks

Page 91: IT In The Park 2016

In an awesome world… 1 click!

Page 92: IT In The Park 2016

If this action happens 10 times a day...We can approximately remove...

70 clicks a day = time to send 1 email

350 clicks a week = time to draft 1 knowledge base article

1400 clicks a month = time to implement 1 new idea!

16800 a year = a vacation maybe?

Page 93: IT In The Park 2016

What can we learn?

Identify repeated actions in your Service Desk.

Bring down the number of clicks.

Page 94: IT In The Park 2016

Happy team = Happycustomers!

Page 95: IT In The Park 2016

So what did we talk about?End users:

Navigation - When the user has to make a choice, give them info

Access - Make sure that the service desk is within their reach

Information - Talk to them in their language, not IT-English

Communication - With each email/phone/text, take them one step closer to the

solution. If not, give them new information.

Agents:

Context - Get everything required into a single screen

Clicks - Identify repeated actions, reduce the number of clicks

Page 96: IT In The Park 2016

Oh, interesting. What was the point of this?

CSI if your customers

don’t recognise it?

Edenfield IT Consulting Limited

Session Objectives

What you should get out of this session:-

▀ The commercial importance of ‘demonstrating

value’ from IT service provision

and its different forms

▀ Awareness of some of the challenges faced by

the IT Service Provider in demonstrating value

“More people have read my ITIL and IT Best Practice

NOT TRUE!!!!!!!!!!

……But hey we can all brag a

little!

Speaker Profile

Page 105: IT In The Park 2016

Good…..who says so?

In the competitive marketplace and commercial world in

which we operate, the IT organisation can no longer get

away with simply believing that it is ‘good at what it does’.

Thinking you are ‘good’ is now no longer ‘good enough’!

Your Business Customers need to believe that they

are getting ‘Value’ from their spend on IT

If your Business Customers don’t feel they are getting

‘Value for Money’ then you are a COST

Value - A Commercial Perspective

Page 106: IT In The Park 2016

Demonstrating ‘Value’ can be a challenge for the IT

Service Provider

Page 107: IT In The Park 2016

Value ?

We need to demonstrate ‘Value’ to our customers

To do this we need to understand the concepts of ‘Value’

Value

Creation

Value For

Money

Value Add

Page 108: IT In The Park 2016

Value Creation

Definition of an IT Service

A service is a means of delivering value to customers by facilitating outcomes

customers want to achieve without the ownership of specific costs and risks

Value Creation – See ITIL Service Strategy

► Value is only created when business

outcomes are achieved

► Value must be affordable

► Value is defined by the customer

► Value is strongly influenced by how well

customer expectations have been met

Page 109: IT In The Park 2016

Issues – Demonstrating the value of IT services

Good Service is ‘Normalised’

Customer expectations change over

time

Increasing expectation of additional

value

Meeting SLA targets consistently

may now no longer be enough!

IT centric measures

Page 110: IT In The Park 2016

Value for Money

Definition

Value for money (VFM) is a term used to assess whether or not the customer has obtained the

maximum benefit from the IT services provided for the costs incurred to acquire them.

► The IT Services provided by IT fully

underpin and support the desired business

outcomes

► IT costs are considered competitive and

fair

► Customer expectations are met or better

still exceeded.

Page 111: IT In The Park 2016

Issues – Demonstrating ‘Value for Money’

IT Costs often a ‘Mystery’

Customers typically don’t

understand ‘below the line’ IT

Costs

Not always easy to assess if their

IT costs are competitive

Value of ‘below the line’ IT

Capability not recognised

Page 112: IT In The Park 2016

Value Add

Definition

Value Added refers to “extra” feature(s) of an item of interest (e.g. IT Services) that go beyond the

standard expectations and provide something "more".

► ‘Value add’ provides something ‘extra’ that the customer wasn’t

expecting

► The greater the ‘value add’ provided to the customer, the

stronger their perception of value will be influenced

► Good IT service providers will encourage their people to

improve and optimise their services as a demonstrable example

of the ‘Value Add’.

► CSI provides the mechanism to demonstrate Value Add to

your customers

Page 113: IT In The Park 2016

Issues – Demonstrating ‘Value Add’

Lack of a Service Culture

Improvements measured from the

Technology perspective

Lack of understanding on how the

technology supports the business

Missed Opportunities to demonstrate

the IT capability of the IT organisation

and its people

Reluctance of IT staff to ‘promote’

achievements and ‘fly the flag’

Page 114: IT In The Park 2016

Key Learning – ‘Value’

An interesting concept:-

• Is difficult to measure

• Is often based on ‘feelings’ or ‘Judgements’

• Is determined by the Customer (expectations)

• Is strongly influenced by Perception

The ITSM Strategy needs to:-

• Understand customer expectations

• Focus on adding value

• Measure and report in Business/Customer terms

• Positively influence customer ‘Perceptions’

(Ongoing)

The ‘Value’ of IT Service Management?

The Insight, Knowledge & Skills of

your People

Processes (and Tools) Ways of Working

Page 121: IT In The Park 2016

‘Changing ‘Ways of Working’ – CSI

►Focus CSI on delivering additional value to the

customer

►Exploit the insight, knowledge and skills of your

people

►Identify and drive opportunities to improve the

overall quality and costs of the IT Services

provided.

►Influence Customer perceptions of ‘value

creation’ – Providing more then just meeting

SLA

►Influence Customer perceptions of value for

money – Provide ‘no cost’ improvements that

were not expected

►Influence customer perceptions of the IT Service

Provider – Differentiate yourself from

potential competitors

Aggregation of Marginal Gains A concept used by Dave Brailsford (Performance

Director for ‘Team Sky’ – GB Cycling team)

Simple premise – If you improve every area related to

cycling by just 1%, then those small gains would add up

to significant improvement

Strategy to drive a 1% improvement in everything you

do.

Aggregation of Marginal Gains (Concepts)

Page 124: IT In The Park 2016

KEY MESSAGE

“Improving by just 1% may not be notable or even noticeable – but can be just as meaningful in the

long run”

Source: James Clear Entrepreneur and Behaviour Science Expert

Typically CSI is viewed as an improvement that is

only meaningful if it delivers a step change benefitBLOCKER

ENABLERSimple principle – Break things down into smaller

parts - improve each by 1%, you will get a

significant increase when you put them all together.

Assessment Is performed using a structured questionnaire. Once

completed the responses are assessed against a recognised

industry maturity model or standard to provide a score or rating.

Benchmarking

Certification

Assessment

Certification verifies the organisations compliance to a

recognised standard and includes a formal audit by an

independent and accredited body.

Benchmarking is the process of measuring the quality, time and

cost of organisational activities and comparing these results

against best practices and/or peer group organisations.

Summary

Your Business Customers need to believe that they are getting ‘Value’ from their spend on IT

IT service providers who recognize the importance of positively influencing customer perception of

value and value for money are more likely to achieve high levels of customer satisfaction, instill

over time customer loyalty and retain their customers’ business.

COMMON SELF-SERVICE CAPABILITIES

Self-help via access to FAQs and other helpful information

The ability to quickly log issues and requests for resolution by IT personnel

Status checking

Broadcast alerts and individual notifications

A password reset capability

BUT IS YOUR ORGANIZATION READY FOR SELF-SERVICE?

Page 183: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright ITSM.tools. All rights reserved.183

LEVEL ZERO SOLVABLE

A common mistake is launching a knowledge base before it’s truly fit for purpose

LZS is a measure – the percentage of incidents that could have been resolved by the end user via self-help

LZS can be used to gauge the chances of self-service success by predicting the level of end user success with the knowledge base

But just because there’s an available knowledge article, it doesn’t mean that the issue can be flagged as LZS

PASSWORD RESETS

Password reset is the most successful self-service capability – with 25% of organizations reporting “great success”

INDUSTRY STATS

Circa 50% of respondents rate their self-service “online form” capability (for submitting incidents and request) as at least “somewhat successful”

With circa 15% rating it as unsuccessful.

Source: HDI “Technology for Empowering End Users” (August 2015)

HOW TO MAKE IT WORK

Only 10% of organizations report “great success” with knowledge bases and 30% report that they have been unsuccessful

So while 54% of organizations have implemented knowledge bases, one third of these have been successful, one third have definitely been unsuccessful, and the final third have had middling results

COMMON BARRIERS TO SELF-SERVICE SUCCESS

Page 190: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright ITSM.tools. All rights reserved.190

OVERCOMING THE BARRIERS (1/2)

Not learning from the mistakes of failed self-service initiatives

The self-service initiative is treated as a technology, rather than a business, project

A lack of end user involvement

The purpose, scope, and desired outcomes of self-service are misjudged

Insufficient planning for day-to-day operations

Not addressing people-change issues

Page 191: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright ITSM.tools. All rights reserved.191

OVERCOMING THE BARRIERS (2/2)

Self-service is viewed solely as a cost-saving replacement for telephone access

Insufficient use of automation

Launch “apathy”

A one-off attempt to encourage adoption

TIPS FOR SELF-SERVICE SUCCESS

For after you have considered and addressed the ten barriers

Page 193: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright ITSM.tools. All rights reserved.193

TOP TIPS FOR SELF SERVICE SUCCESS (1/2)

Investing in better knowledge management. Look at what you have already and build on it.

Offering choice – you know your organisation – so flex your approach to make it work.

Supporting mobile access to self-service capabilities

Recognizing the difference between UI and UX

Using fit-for-purpose technology

Page 194: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright ITSM.tools. All rights reserved.194

TOP TIPS FOR SELF SERVICE SUCCESS (2/2)

Exploiting existing corporate automation capabilities

Looking ahead to self-service opportunities outside of IT

Starting with a friendly pilot group

If you have a Service Catalogue make it actionable

Incidents

Project Requests

Service Requests

Standard Changes

Page 195: IT In The Park 2016

KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. Self-service success is there to be had, but only if you really work for it

2. Understand that self-service is about offering new capabilities more than it is implementing new technology …

3. … and that organisations need to assess their preparedness for self-service

4. There are many barriers to self-service success; so be prepared to research, consider, address, and traverse them to increase the chances of success

5. Culture change – no more individual rock stars – we’re all rock stars!!

Objectives for today?

Page 237: IT In The Park 2016

237

Introduction

• Multi-sourcing is becoming the industry norm, and this introduces a new challenge in terms of how a complex vendor eco-system will be managed

• Service Integration & Management is the co-ordination of people, processes, and tools/technology across multiple Service Providers, be they internal or external, to manage the delivery of end-to-end service to the customer.

• So it’s just IT Service Management for multi vendors?

Not quite….

• SIAM encompasses IT Service Management activities, as well as- Business relationship management- Project delivery- Vendor / commercial management- IT governance- Financial management

Page 238: IT In The Park 2016

238

What is SIAM?

This diagram depicts:- IT serving multiple business units

- IT procuring its capability from multiple towers

- The need for a consolidation layer- Service Desk to manage user support

- The need for a retained or sourced SIAM function to integrate tower services into business services

- The need for consolidation of outputs from each tower to form service focussed output (e.g. Capacity Mgt, Reporting)

Page 239: IT In The Park 2016

239

» More effective Change Control and long term planning

» Assures integrity of service and technical dependencies, reducing incidents

» Improved flexibility through the ability to add or reduce managed Providers

» Standardised and industrialised processes based on best practice

» Drives reduction in Incidents and Problems e.g. Problem management across

landscape

» Less ambiguity / ‘grey areas’, opportunities for things to fall down a hole

» Provides definitive set of Management Information – ‘One Truth’

» Drives the elimination of inefficiency e.g. activity duplication

» Standardisation and industrialisation of processes (inc. automation) across providers

» More reliable service with less incidents, major incidents, and problems

» Supports Single point of responsibility / accountability

» Provides Clear End-to-end ownership of the service

» Establishes Single point of contact for your lines of business

» Manage service catalogues which are business, not technology aligned

Why is Service Integration important?

Service Integration is the key to maximising the value of a multi-sourced IT Operating model.

SIAM Models

• Model 1 – Retained SIAM function

• Model 2 – SIAM is sourced independently of the Service Towers

• Model 3 – SIAM is delivered jointly by the retained organisation and a sourced SIAM partner

• Model 4 – SIAM is delivered by a Tower Supplier as lead supplier

• Each model has their own benefits and disadvantages. There is no “best” option….

Page 241: IT In The Park 2016

241

Define the SIAM scope

• Use ITIL & COBIT as a reference point to build a process / controls based operating model

• This can be extended by adopting a “sliding scale” approach to indicate what is done by retained organisation versus SIAM and other service providers

Source: ISACA implementation of Service Integration in a Multi-provider Environment Using COBIT 5

Page 242: IT In The Park 2016

242

SIAM – The Big Questions you need to be asking…

• What are the key issues that we are trying to resolve by adopting a SIAM based approach?

• Are we looking to achieve transformational change in IT?

• What are we comfortable outsourcing and what needs to be retained?

• Do we accept that our IT operating model may need to change?

• What will our process models look like in terms of roles and responsibilities?

• Who will own and operate the ITSM tools?

• Will we operate SIAM in-house, or as one of our Service Towers?

• Are we already operating in a SIAM model, but we just don’t call it SIAM!?

In my experience, if we could do the following things with these questions, life would be so much simpler by..

• asking these at the start of the programme

• seeking answers

• gaining consensus from all stakeholders

• documenting the answers in a programme charter that forms the basis of the project initiation documentation

Page 243: IT In The Park 2016

243

SIAM Programme Objectives and Structure

• The SIAM programme will be accountable for designing, building and implementing the new IT operating model to support the multi vendor sourcing strategy

• The new Operating Model will typically encompass:

– A process workstream

– An organisational change workstream

– A communication / cultural change workstream

– A tooling workstream

– A governance workstream

• Ideally the SIAM operating model will be established prior to implementation of the multi-vendor strategy

Page 244: IT In The Park 2016

244

SIAM Programme Success Factors

• Develop the Target Operating Model

• Align SIAM to the business strategy and direction

• Define a tooling strategy which extends beyond ITSM tools

• Design an end-to-end organisation structure

• Define the scope and responsibilities of SIAM, retained vs. outsourced and service towers

• Do not ignore the need for cultural / behavioural change

• Implement the SIAM operating model prior to implementing the sourcing strategy

• Your team should comprise the following skills

– IT(SM) Process design

– Tooling (selection, requirements gathering, contracting, implementation)

– Sourcing (commercial oversight, contract law)

– Cultural & Behavioural change

Enterprise level adoption

Scary for some large orgs

Procurement and business case processes not built for agile ways of working

Teams not used to working autonomously

Greater demands from end users

Process Exploration Days

Hack days or Shipit days for processes

Innovation isn’t just about products

We can all be explorers

Rotation days also work

Communities of practice

Lunch!

Rewarding People

Use small rewards often, linked to specific actions

Give rewards at unexpected times

Reward the behaviour, not just the results

Reward peers, managers and subordinates

Reward publicly

Page 291: IT In The Park 2016

Find the Purpose

Collect stories about the process – good, bad, indifferent

Select examples of what you do/don’t want to happen in future

Find items that represent stories

Compare the process purpose with the organisational and procedural level purposes

Avoid the management jargon

Where does work come from?

Autonomy and self-organising teams

Agile ITSM: Support

Helpdesk calls = feedback

Problem management = improving daily work

Incident management = opportunities for improvement

Leverage automation (shift left)

Learn from history

What have you done that’s worked?

Have new ways of working always had a business case?

Use the 8-field model to identify desirable and undesirable behavior that needs changing

Do this together with the teams and managers(Use ABC cards to help assess, discuss)

Explore using ‘experiential’, learning by doing(also coaching) to translate theory into practice

Start measuring behavior and impact, reviewwith ALL teams then focus on next behavior

Innovation

The process of translating an idea or invention into goods/services that creates value.

…replicate at an economic cost to satisfy a need

… greater or different value from resources…

NOT about cost cutting/reduction

ABOUT revenue and margin GROWTH

Three Types of Innovation

Evolutionary – incremental changesEasier and safer to take an already successful service and raise it up than to

develop a new one.

Driven by the customer/business is more successful.

Imitators – creates more effective solutions

Revolutionary – disruptive, discontinuous innovator

What counts …

The experience – don’t forget the userNot about outputs, but outcomes

Total experience

Technology is a tool to help user achieve their goals

Did the user ‘ask’ for this, or was it forced on them?

Is the goal to have users use the solution or prefer the solution to what was used previously?Who funded? Why?

Are users inside or outside the loop?

Successful Organizations

Real business impactAre both the customer and service provider proud of the solution?

Would the customer fund this?

Strategic partnership

Changing role of IT (see panel session later today)

Trust

Don’t forget the people and processes

Innovation is one of top three strategic goals

V O R T OOpening

• Quick intro about Vorto.

• Raise your hand if you are involved in any way to report outages to your

business or any form of regulatory/external body caused by failures in IT ?

• How many of you have a documented Major Incident mgmt. process that is

utilised and people with either a full time or part time role ?

• What’s the primary objective of the Major Incident Management process ?

• Which areas are there opportunities to shorten the MTTR ?

Page 413: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 414

V O R T OSummary

• Every organisation that has a reliance on IT must have a Major Incident Management (MIM) process

defined in order to effectively manage and reduce business impact from IT outages.

• Different levels of MIM engagement can be applied based on the criticality of IT services, but a

rigorous process has to be established alongside a robust tooling solution (either basic or complex) or

avoidable business outages will occur.

• MIM is surprisingly not defined as a distinct process in ITIL, we however strongly believe it is and have

defined both a distinct process and tooling solution within ITSM tools to support it across multiple

organisations.

• In this session we will cover the following:

o The key stages of the process.

o The support roles and responsibilities within an organisation.

o The opportunities to reduce your MTTR.

o Tooling features (available in an ITSM tool or external products).

V O R T ORoles & Responsibilities

Recovery manager

• An empowered individual who has the right combination of technical and business knowledge. Strength of personality and

the ability to remain calm is also as critical.

• They own the technical bridge, drive activities and keep everyone focussed on the resumption of service.

• They do not relinquish control to the CIO !

Communications manager

• Creating and sending communications, following up with regular updates and closing the communications.

• Tracking all work activities.

• Providing “co driver” support to the recovery manager.

IT support teams

• Identified infrastructure and application engineers who working together have the knowledge to resolve the incident.

• Defined as part of the ecosystem of the impacted applications and services in your tools.

Application & service owners

• Identified owner who can make the ultimate decision and whose team is responsible for interacting with the business.

• Understand and help communicate the respective operational, regulatory, financial and reputational impact to their IT and

business services.

Page 416: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 417

V O R T OIdentify & assess

What’s happening?

The business sees a loss of service or the

potential loss if action is not taken quickly

Assess the impact and agree the severity

Start the process

Where are the opportunities to reduce MTTR ?

• A MIM process has been defined and the business know how to invoke it.

• MIM roles have been identified and assigned.

• Services have been defined with owners empowered to make decisions.

• Ideally the CMDB holds the information in your ITSM tool.

• Recertification processes ensure data is accurate.

• The MIM manager and the authorised service representative collaborate to make the decision on the severity.

What do we do now?

Carry out a defined and

agreed process

Page 417: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 418

V O R T OCommunication

Open the Ticket

Establish business impact and complete basic

information

Opening Statement

Key parties need to know

Where are the opportunities to reduce MTTR ?

• To open a MIM only requires minimal information, don’t waste time completing fields that aren’t yet qualified.

• Problem management is for later!

• Define subscription rules based on service, severity, country etc. for interested parties to subscribe to, no time wasted finding the right

email list or pulling together a group of people.

• Targeted communication to the right audience can provide the vital piece of information to find the cause of the incident.

• Degrade your service CI so that the Service Desk can immediately see an issue has occurred and help relate other issues that potentially

could lead to a solution (Parent/child logic).

Page 418: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 419

V O R T OInvoke a service recovery plan

While IT works on the issue the business may need to invoke an SRP

Run by the business external to the MIM

A stored service recovery plan (SRP) invoked or a live service recovery blotter (SRB) initiated

• If the incident is of a scale that it needs to be auditable, a stored SRP should be invoked or a live SRB initiated to capture and record the

whole event. The blotter event can then be stored as an SRP within the knowledge base.

• Define SRP’s related to your applications and services.

• Rehearse these plans on a periodic basis.

• Execute the SRP and manage all the required activities.

• Communicate and visualise the status.

• Post event – full audit trail and for regulators and the opportunity to improve the SRP for future invocations.

V O R T OInvestigate

Let’s now find what’s broken

Automation!

Advanced Analytics!

Where are the opportunities to reduce MTTR ?

• Your infrastructure teams and application teams all have scripts they use to check environments, automate those scripts.

• Utilise an enterprise orchestration product or self-build using web services.

• Use your CMDB relationships (if you have them) to find the CI’s and run parallel health checks against all the related infrastructure.

• This can be initiated as soon as the service has been identified and the ticket opened, when the IT team reach the bridge the health

checks have completed.

• Advanced analytics – www.squirro.com – Powerful technology to search any data source for related data points (event, change, incident,

log, performance) . All of these when searched within the context of the application can potentially find the issue.

Page 420: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 421

V O R T OContinued communication

Don’t forget to keep communicating !

Key parties need to be kept informed

Continued awareness of progress and impact is critical

• Communicate at scheduled intervals or at key lifecycle stages.

• If you communicate well it stops the bridges being overloaded with listeners who don’t add value.

Page 421: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 422

V O R T ORoot cause & recovery plan agreed - fix

Found it, now let’s fix it

Speed is of the essence – cut sensible corners

• Change tickets aren’t needed.

• Retrospective ECR can be raised and approved after the event.

• Audit functions typically agree to this process.

• The key participants, service owner and MIM manager have been empowered by the organisation to make the decision.

• If further guidance is needed bring them to the bridge to discuss verbally.

Page 422: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 423

V O R T OClean up

It’s fixed now what do we need to clean up

with the business and close out the MIM

process

Subsequent activities

• Shift the focus to business clean up.

• Remain in a state of heightened awareness.

• Potentially freeze any changes to the application and supporting infrastructure.

• Who wants to explain an own goal from a failed change immediately after a major business outage?

• Review all the activity logs and ensure accuracy of data entered into the ticket.

• For the highest severity incidents open up the Problem management record immediately.

Page 423: IT In The Park 2016

© Copyright 2016 Vorto Limited 424

V O R T OSummary of Recommendations• Establish an owner for the Major Incident Management process.

• Define the roles and assign them to individuals.

• Define and document the process for all internal staff and external vendors to attest to.

• Identify the business critical applications or services and the specialist internal and external resources that are required to restore service when an outage occurs.

• Configure those resources into your ITSM tool for escalation and notification.

• The advanced features available which have been mentioned are all optional based on your volume, criticality of services and budget availability.

• Conference bridge and auto dial – xMatters

• Cognitive search engine – Squirro

• Automated tasks – Any orchestration tool or self-built web services

• Service Recovery Plans – Cutover

based on the assessment at that time

Colour based (RAGB) indicators are

added to the MIM form and in the

related processes of Incident,

Problem & Change to alert other

users of the service state.

Workflow can also be triggered from

the degraded state also if required to

initiate automated actions.

Proactive problem managementLooking back

- Sometimes an after-thought and often under resourced with split roles

- Risk of conflicting priorities if within the service desk organisation- Traditional problem sources:

- Major incident recurrence prevention

- Stakeholder requests

- Incident trend analysis

- Problem candidates from resolvers

- Reliance on high quality, consistent incident categorization

- Often limited scope (top 10 or greater than x% of volume)

- Working to timescales of weeks and months

- Success often comes in short bursts between periods of apparent inactivity

- Difficulty quantifying value added from many outcomes

Page 435: IT In The Park 2016

Proactive problem managementChanging environment

Consumerisation and generational

change is driving higher user

experience expectations

Vast data lakes are not being utilised to

deliver potential efficiency savings and

productivity increases Machine learning and pattern recognition

technology are available now to enable real

3P support models and the market wants it

By 2018, 50% of global enterprises will have

deployed machine learning technologies

80% of CIOs wish to switch investment from

backwards-looking reporting to forward-looking

predictive analytics

Proactive problem managementWinners and losers

- Traditional problem management at risk of becoming irrelevant

- Lacks the speed and certainty to respond to heightened

expectations

- Virtual assistants, self-service and self-healing solutions will

displace traditional data sources

- Successful problem management teams will be:

- Integrating new data sources into processes and methodologies

- Embracing true predictive and pre-emptive working practises

- Using multiple data sources to gain insight from many perspectives

- Working to become champions of end user experience

- Prioritising on business value (cost savings & productivity gains)

Proactive problem managementChanging stance

A modern data-driven and analytics led

proactive support model enables empowered

& active client care

Proactive as it controls situations

instead of reacting to events

Predictive through identification of

trends and warnings which are

associated with potential incidents

Pre-emptive by taking targeted

corrective action before incident

occur

Shifts focus to maximising productivity

and satisfaction with IT

Proactive problem managementCompare traditional and 3P

- Many issues go unreported & therefore undetected

- Relies on quality registration and categorization by Service Desk

- Wait months for trends to emerge for low/mid volume issues

- Outcome tracking through incident trends is unreliable

- Grey problems drag on with no traction

- Continuous view of end user compute estate

- Detect problems based on real-time data

- High confidence impact and risk assessments

- Outcome tracking instant after fix deployment

- Complement incident data with analytics insight

Traditional reactive support

Modern 3P based support

Proactive problem managementLessons learned

Contracts

Resistance to proactive work where invoicing is per ticket

OLA / SLA for proactive tickets not recognised by 3rd parties

Culture

De-prioritisation of proactive workflows due to established

behaviours & management systems

Resistance to incremental work, especially where incidents are

under-reported

Fear of exposing mistakes & fear of job elimination

Appetite for change

Budget or stakeholder constraints on ability to respond to recommendations

Incident-focused mind set or business objectives devaluing proactive work
