LEAN-ITIL: Cómo el Pensamiento Lean Aplicado a ITSM Nos Hace Más Eficientes

Adopting ITIL in many organization does not always work out as planned. There are organizations that try ITIL and say "ITIL is not for them". I say ITIL is for every organization. No organization has to adopt ITIL in it's entirety. Adoption does not mean apply ITIL concepts or technology and keep doing what you have been doing. Change needs to happen and one of the key elements of change is automation applied to the process areas. In this session, Anthony will explain common challenges and how to automate ITIL for service performance enhancement.

Automation can seriously improve your customer experience, but can you imagine replacing infrastructure BEFORE it breaks? The world of automation is not exclusive to DevOps, however, as we start to automate ITIL, DevOps may get the applause.

Join this webcast to discover how automation will impact ITIL and companies of the future.

This session defines the differences and similarities of Agile and ITIL along with best practices for implementing Agile concepts into an ITIL environment.

ITSM tools have been extremely popular among ITSM professionals in the past three decades. However, as ITSM evolved, ITSM tools not so much, which has slowed down the development of the industry. In this webcast Tarun Gupt will talk about why a revolutionary change is required in ITSM Tools. He will also cover the following points:
- The evolution of tools in ITSM, as well as latest solution and trends;
- Need of the hour to stay relevant;
- ITSM Tools Architecture.

How is your service operation seen within the business? Good? Magic? Brilliant? Or perhaps meek? How your service operation is viewed within the business depends on many factors: communication, resolution, innovation etc., and all these factors are linked. Having previously helped NTT DATA to the title of SDI Service Desk of the Year, Damian Bowen says you must start by understanding how you are perceived. Then, it’s about telling the right story to build your reputation for delivering value and linking your service operation to the strategy and vision of your business.

About the speaker:

Damian has worked in the IT Industry for over 25 years, including the last 8 years as Director of IT & Service Delivery in the UK for one of the largest global SI’s (the $13bn turnover NTT DATA). Damian has transformed the Service Operations of NTT DATA and a number of other leading organisations.

IT organizations have struggled for years to move beyond monitoring of technology components and measure the performance of business processes, services and end user experiences. Operational Technology (OT) and the Internet of Things (IoT) provide a unique opportunity for service management professionals to embed sensors, collectors and instrumentation capabilities directly into the interactions between users and IT Systems. This webinar will provide an overview of the use of OT and IoT in the IT monitoring context, some management considerations and a look forward at how these capabilities are expected to evolve over the next 2-3 years.

Many organizations struggle with defining metrics for business and IT value. Metrics are disconnected from real value in such that after they are defined, no one either pays attentions to them or can make a decision relative to the metrics being reported on. In this session Anthony will discuss how to tie metrics to business and IT value for improved decision making. Including how metrics relate to IT projects and operational efficiency and effectiveness.

Great managers understand the value of numbers. But for many of us they are a safety net to defend what we do, not a catapult to corporate success.

Numbers tell a story, and in this session James Finister will tell you how we can use numbers to articulate and communicate the value of IT at a corporate level whilst avoiding common pitfalls

James will put to to rest the myth of lies, damned lies and statistics whilst promoting a mantra of measure what matters.

The business and IT landscape is changing in significant ways...

- Business are demanding continuous delivery of new and improved application functionality, as well as performance

-To help meet this demand, new emerging best-practices such as Agile and DevOps have arrived on the scene, delivering continuous software changes into the live environment

-The trend toward self-service continues, enabling end users to handle most of the simple issues themselves - engaging the service desk only when complex issues arise

-Support issues are becoming increasing complex, driving the need for collaboration, and knowledge sharing across IT functional groups (many of which remain "siloed")

-Customer and user expectations are rising in terms of higher uptime, and faster resolution to any issues

Nevertheless, many IT organizations and support center continue to implement the traditional "tiered support model" in their service desk and support centers, composed of ...

Tier 1 - the front line support team of generalists that tries to resolve most issues

Tier 2 - a second line of specialists that tries to resolve the rest

Tier 3 - a third line of very specialized developers, technicians, and
supplier that deal with the most complex issues

As a result of the dynamics in the changing business and IT environment, the tiered support model - although it has worked and been very popular over the past 30 years - is now coming up short. Many issues end up backlogged in ticket queues, resolution times drag out, costs continue to rise due to the magnitude of escalations, and customer/user satisfaction suffers.

Ah, the Service Catalog. Every organization needs one, but few have one they truly love. It sounds so easy, doesn’t it? Create a menu of IT services, then communicate said menu to your customers. Done!

Sadly, the above scenario is a rare one. While most of our organizations have some semblance of a Service Catalog, it’s often a bit of mess, hasn’t been updated in a while, or lives in a perpetual state of almost done. If any of this sounds painfully familiar to you – or if you fall into the camp of not having a Service Catalog at all – be not afraid!

Why not? Because the BEYOND20 Catalog Doctors are here to help (trust us, *we’re doctors)! We’ve seen it all, and have helped strategize, design, and build countless Service Catalogs over the years. Our panel of catalog experts (or **doctors) will be sharing their knowledge, recommendations, and practical advice on how to quickly build a Service Catalog both you and your customers will love - with as little pain as is humanly possible.

*This is patently false. It couldn’t possibly be less true.

**Not doctors. Can’t stress it enough.
