IT Service Management Strategy

Well-defined IT Service Management (ITSM) processes will streamline your operations by leveraging solutions to improve performance and reduce operational costs.

Why Should You Focus on Your ITSM Strategy?

Without an effective ITSM strategy, organizations struggle with unintended outages resulting in negative business impacts, including potential revenue loss. In addition, they experience increased call volume due to inadequate or broken processes that aren’t aligned with industry standards and IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) frameworks.

The end-user experience suffers because of a lack of transparency regarding request status and next steps — and employee satisfaction plummets because of longer fulfillment and resolution times.

Developing and deploying a comprehensive strategy creates opportunities to:

  • Establish process maturity model indicators
  • Provide current state analysis including strengths, key observations and recommendations
  • Increase service availability, thereby improving customer experience
  • Optimize IT spend
  • Turn IT into a strategic business partner
  • Improve employee experience through self-service offerings and established feedback mechanisms
Why Should You Focus on Your ITSM Strategy

Our Approach

Through our transformative, data-driven approach, we quantify expected improvements and establish mature metrics that are critical for success. We assess your organization’s IT landscape from multiple perspectives through interviews with different stakeholders. We also examine the current state of ITSM processes and capabilities within your organization and provide a strategic roadmap to support future business needs.

Our Approach

To accomplish this, we take the following steps:

  • Assess current process maturity through questionnaires, client interviews and existing process documentation
  • Identify strengths, opportunities and recommendations
  • Conduct interviews with staff and vendors regarding current processes and tools
  • Analyze ticket data to assess process compliance and establish opportunities to mature the organization
  • Develop a comprehensive roadmap to align current processes with ITIL and industry best practices
  • Evaluate current ITSM platforms/toolsets and their capabilities to provide a service management solution that is integrated with other business and IT functions

ITSM Strategic Outcomes

While the specific ITSM solutions are unique to each organization, the right strategy will ensure that your business can quickly scale, adapt, modernize and apply advanced technological solutions to meet the needs of customers and employees.

In one case, Trianz engaged on a multi-year contract with a leading global engineering firm. The client was leveraging multiple ITSM platforms with siloed processes supporting more than 75,000 users worldwide leading to longer resolution and fulfilment times thereby resulting in poor customer experience.

Our strategy involved starting with a detailed analysis of the current state followed by data-driven analysis, stakeholder interviews, and workshops to arrive at the optimal target state process and technology solutions.

The result was streamlined processes across the ITSM functions with automation of numerous services including employee onboarding, provisioning, self-healing incidents, auto fulfillment of user requests, and a self-service portal, to name a few. The outcome of this engagement yielded reduced labor costs, faster speed of service, increased customer satisfaction and user experience.
