Starting Situation
Due to the E-Government Regulation of the State of Berlin and subsequent standardization strategies, the client was tasked by the state to implement and expand its IT and service management function within the organization. This led to significant changes and optimizations in terms of service scope, support, order management, and IT operations. The goal was to establish an enterprise-wide service initiative to ensure that the relevant authorities in Berlin could be integrated into the newly established service management ecosystem. This included processes, supply chains, and expanded ITSM system functionalities.
Solution
The solution involved assessing and optimizing process maturity, existing service management policies and practices, as well as the corresponding system architecture, data management practices, and ITSM tool functionalities. Additionally, additional processes and data interfaces were implemented to address potential gaps between marketing, service management, and IT operations.
Outcome
The results positioned the organization to achieve a high level of internal standardization. This included optimized, well-documented, and implemented processes, an evaluation of the best tools for relevant support units, and standard procedures for improved customer service. Furthermore, a federated data management concept (CMDB interface) strengthened the enterprise architecture function within the organization and helped successfully complete a feasibility proof regarding license optimization and compliance.
