Question #12

Scenario
Vericom is a leading provider of government, business and consumertelecommunication services, and is currently seeking ways in which toimprove its utilization of IT services to drive growth across its' multiplelines of business. One of the largest organizations in the UnitedKingdom, Vericom is comprised of the following business units:

Due to the extensive scope of infrastructure deployed and largeemployee and customer base, Vericom continues to rely on legacysystems for some critical IT services; however this is seen as abarrier to future organizational growth and scalability of servicesoffered. The CIO of Vericom has also raised the concern that whileimprovements to the technology utilized is important, this also needsto be supported by quality IT Service Management practicesemployed by the various IT departments.
The project of improving the IT Service Management practicesemployed by Vericom has been outsourced to external consultantswho are aware of the major IT refresh that is going to be occurringover the next 24 months.
Refer to the scenario.
With Vericom being a large organization (approximately 40 000 staff),some of the business units have developed their own internal ITdepartments to supplement the services provided by the centralizedInformation Technology Services (ITS) department. This has occurreddue to the specialized needs and requirements for technology,specifically Verinet, VericomTV and Consumer Sales and Marketing.
While the decision has been made that this organizational structure isto remain in place, there has been identified issues relating to a lackof consistency in IT Service Management processes used by thedifferent departments and unclear boundaries for the responsibilitiesof the various IT Service Desks. This has resulted in:
- End users calling the wrong Service Desk, requiring the call tobe redirected to the appropriate group
- Inconsistency in the categorization and classification ofservice requests, incidents and problems, causing confusionand frustration when there are multiple IT departmentsinvolved
- Known Errors being recorded internally within the various ITdepartments, which may in fact have a wider impact on thewhole organization when these are not visible to everyone
- Inconsistency in the Service Management systems and toolsused for handling service requests, incidents, problems andKnown Errors.
From the following responses, which BEST represents theapproach you would take to overcome the issues describedabove?

A. You realize a coordinated approach is the best method,including: The development of the ITS Service Desk to be the singlepoint of contact for ALL end user (internal) queries. This willbe performed over a 6 month period, to take account for anytraining and transfer of knowledge that needs to occur. ThisService Desk will then escalate to the appropriate second linegroup (from any of the IT departments) as required. Develop consistency across all departments for categoriesand priority coding systems used for all service requests,incidents and problems. Build or purchase a consistent service management tool thatwill be used by all IT departments for managing incidents,problems, Known Errors and service requests. Holding regular review sessions involving staff from each ofthe IT departments to discuss current issues, recurring andpotential problems future initiatives.

B. You realize a coordinated approach is the best method,including: Developing a telephone system that will route calls to theappropriate Service Desk based on the user's input. Thisshould also provide the capability for a Service Desk analystto call them back during peak periods. Develop consistency in all the categories assigned to servicerequests, incidents and problems across all IT departments. Build or purchase a service management tool that will be usedby all IT departments for managing incidents, problems,Known Errors and service requests Hold regular review sessions involving key staff from each ofthe IT departments to discuss current issues and potentialproblems.

C. You realize a phased approach is the best method, includingfour phases: Phase 1 - Build or purchase a service management tool thatwill be used by all IT departments for managing incidents,problems and service requests Phase 2 - Standardize the use of ITIL processes used by theITS department across all IT departments at Vericom Phase 3 - Deliver training and awareness sessions for staffregarding the importance of the processes and how theyshould be used. Phase 4 - Review the success of the project and pass anylessons learnt onto future projects

D. You realize that improving the business awareness of IT ismost important, and address the issues by: Identifying the training requirements of end users to improvetheir use of IT service Implement an online Service Catalogue for all IT Services,with self-help capabilities to log and track incidents, problemsand service requests Assist Service Level Management in improving the visibility ofthe IT organization in general, and identify areas of customersatisfaction that need improving Build or purchase a service management tool that will be usedby all IT departments and end users for managing incidents,problems, Known Errors and service requests
