1 Management Foundation From Best Practice to Implementation 2008 IBM Corporation
2 Agenda Management Foundation: - Fundamental building blocks for successful Management - ITIL v3: What s new in Operations and Transition From Best Practice to Implementation - Planning a successful Management roadmap - Overcoming organizational challenges: - Using a Process Reference Model to accelerate process design - Building a Management Technology Architecture - Case study: successful Management implementations
3 Management Foundation 2008 IBM Corporation
4 The current situation at a bank in the ASEAN region There is no integrated process framework Different tools are used for different processes: - Monitoring is done at the platform level, with no overall monitoring capability. There is no event management function, and event information is not passed to the Desk - Desk is currently using a CA product for Incident and Requests, but they are considering changing to a BMC product - 2 nd and 3 rd level support staff use PVCS Tracker for Problem Management - Change Requests are managed on spreadsheets - There is no formal Release Management process - Configuration management is done in an unstructured manner by each of the support teams in a silo and hero-based manner. Spreadsheets are used by some of the teams. Consequences: - The standard method of finding out about an availability problem is via a call to the Desk (users know before the IT team does) - There are significant availability issues, and there was recently a significant downtime of core banking services - Data is manually entered from one ITSM tool to the next - It is difficult to produce KPI reports, or understand the health of the IT services - Users are highly dissatisfied with IT services

6 With evolution and increasing complexity of the managed environment, there is increasing need for effective IT processes Business Processes Composite Applications and SOA There has been a natural progression from managing infrastructure resources to systems, to IT services and business services. This requires a set of streamlined processes to improve efficiency of service management Business Applications SAP Oracle Legacy Middleware and IT s Managed Elements Mainframe Linux J2EE Appl User Business Transaction Change Management Processes Config Release Availability Level Servers Storage Infrastructure Networks
7 The ITIL v3 books introduce the concept of a service lifecycle, but do not provide a roadmap for implementing an IT Management program Strategy Converts strategic objectives into portfolios of services and service assets Develops policies, architectures, portfolios a new or changed service for introduction into the live environment Governance Methods Governance Methods Standards Standards Alignment Alignment Continual Improvement Continual Improvement Knowledge & Skills Knowledge & Skills Establishes the overall strategy for providing IT services. It consists of four main activities: - Define the market - Develop the offerings - Develop the strategic assets - Prepare for execution Case Studies Case Studies Strategies Strategies Specialty Topics Specialty Topics Templates Templates ITIL ITIL Operation Operation Transition Transition Transition Continual Improvement Review and analyze Level Achievement results Identify and implement improvement activities to improve IT quality and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of ITSM processes Guidance for the transitioning of new and changed services into the production environment It focuses on the broader, longterm change management role and release practices Objective is to ensure minimal unpredicted impact on production services, operations and support organization Scalability Scalability Improvement Continual Improvement Continual Continual Continual Improvement Improvement Executive Executive Introduction Introduction Quick Wins Quick Wins Qualifications Qualifications Operation Coordinate and carry out the activities and processes required to deliver and manage services at agreed levels to business users and customers Manage the technology that is used to deliver and support services Study Study Aids Aids
8 ITIL v3 covers a lifecycle of 5 phases and many processes Strategy Transition Operation Continual Improvement Strategy Portfolio Change Monitoring & Event Measurement & Control Market Intelligence Catalog Asset & Configuration Incident Measurement IT Financial Management Portfolio Level Capacity Knowledge & a service knowledge system Release & Deployment Planning Request Fulfillment (standard changes) Problem Assessment & Analysis The question is often Process Assessment & Where Analysis do I begin? Demand Management Availability Performance and Risk Evaluation Access Level Management Risk Management Continuity Testing Desk Improvement Planning Information Security (ISO 27K, ISO 20K) Acquire, Build, Test Release Infrastructure Management Supplier & Contract Release, Acceptance, Test & Pilot IT Operations Processes Functions Organizational Change & Communications Deployment, Decommission and Transfer Facilities Management
9 Operation and Transition are recognized to be the foundation and pre-requisites for effective Management In ITIL v2 most organizations started with the Support book, implementing the following functions/processes: - Desk - Incident Management - Problem Management - Change Management - Release Management - Configuration Management In ITIL v3 the same processes exist, but the list has been expanded to provide a more complete view of the service lifecycle: Operation: - Desk - Access Management - Request Fulfillment - Event Management - Incident Management - Problem Management Transition - Change Management - Transition Planning and Support - Knowledge Management - Release and Deployment Management - Validation and Testing - Asset and Configuration
10 The IT Management framework should be developed using an integrated, holistic approach www Desk Event Console Request Fulfillment Incident Problem Change Release Configuration Level
11 Request Fulfillment Request Fulfillment is the initial support handling of contact with IT users. The purpose of the Request Fulfillment Process is to receive service requests from users and route each request to the appropriate process for handling. Some service requests are handled by the Request Fulfillment Process, whereas many others are routed to other processes for fulfillment. Request Fulfillment can be the contact management process for an implementation of an IT Desk (or equivalent). Sample KPIs - User satisfaction with IT handling of Incidents requests Requests for information - Number of contacts handled Percent handled by the first line of support - Time to completion of service goal Desk Request Fulfillment Incident Configuration Level
12 Incident Management Incident Management provides rapid response to possible service disruptions. The purpose of the Incident Management process is to focus on the restoration of a service affected by any real or potential interruption which has impact upon the quality of that service. Sample KPIs - Number of incidents opened, closed, and pending (by severity level) - Percent of incidents closed with automated responses against manual responses - Percent of incidents closed using existing documentation (known errors) Desk Event Console Request Fulfillment Incident Problem Change Configuration Level
13 Problem Management Problem Management identifies and resolves the root causes of service disruptions. The purpose of the Problem Management process is to resolve problems affecting the IT service, both reactively and proactively. Problem Management finds trends in incidents, groups those incidents into problems, identifies the root causes of problems, and initiates change requests (RFCs) against those problems. Sample KPIs - Number of known problems eliminated - Status of change requests created to eliminate known problems - Historical number of incidents eliminated through problem elimination - Number of known errors (with workarounds) added to the known error database - Percent of incidents related to known problems Incident Problem Change Configuration
14 Change Management The purpose of the Change Management process is to achieve the successful introduction of changes to an IT system or environment. Success is measured as a balance of the timeliness and completeness of change implementation, the cost of implementation, and the minimization of disruption caused in the target system or environment. The process also ensures that appropriate details of changes to IT resources (assets, CIs) are recorded. Sample KPIs - Customer satisfaction with the timeliness and value of the change approval process - Percent of emergency changes - Percent of change requests needing revision - Percent of approved changes completed as planned and scheduled - Number of Incidents due to Approved changes and Non-approved changes Incident Problem Change Release Configuration Level
15 Release Management Release Management is the controlled deployment of approved changes within the IT infrastructure. The purpose of the Release Management process is to prepare and finalize release packages that are fit for deployment so that optimal business value will be attained when deployment occurs. Sample KPIs - Customer satisfaction with the value and quality of releases - Percent of releases Completed as planned and scheduled Rescheduled or delayed Needing revision - Number of incidents caused by a release Incident Change Release Configuration
16 Configuration Management Configuration Management identifies, controls, and maintains all elements in the IT infrastructure called Configuration Items. The purpose of the Configuration Management process is to maintain the integrity of the configuration item (CI) employed in, or related to, IT systems and infrastructure, and to provide accurate information about CIs and their relationships. Sample KPIs - Satisfaction of related processes with CMS accuracy, completeness, and usefulness - Percent of IT-controlled CIs represented in the CMS - Number of updates made to the CMS - Number of inaccuracies discovered in CMS data Request Fulfillment Incident Problem Change Release Configuration
17 From Best Practice to Implementation 2008 IBM Corporation
18 ITSM Implementation Challenges Once you decide to implement an ITSM solution, the questions are: - Where to begin? - How to determine where you are? - How to determine where you want to be? - How to get to where you want to be? How to determine your ITSM s "pain points" and gaps between theory and current reality? How to translate the ITIL framework and best practices into a design that can be implemented? How to customize ITIL best practices for your IT operational processes and procedures? How to train your staff to internalize ITSM and ITIL best practices? How to learn from other customer successes and failures?..
19 5 Steps to Plan for ITSM Implementation The first two steps establish a basis for the ITSM design phases. Awareness & Training Strategy & Plan Detailed Implementation Awareness & Training Assessment Process Detailed Tool Implementation Roadmap Planning Organization Architecture High Level Tool A well defined process for ITSM assessment and planning, and lesson son learned from other implementations can save you a lot of time and money.
20 Step 1: Awareness and Training Awareness & Training Understanding ITSM and ITIL processes is critical to the assessment and planning of IT Management. - ITSM concept, objectives, process definitions, activities, terminologies, relationships, roles, and responsibilities. - Advantages and benefits of using IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) and IBM Process Reference Model for IT (PRM-IT) process models. - Key success factors and considerations for the implementation of ITSM based processes. The IBM Tivoli Unified Process Composer is a customizable process model that offers detailed content and tooling to enable content customization, extension, and publishing.
21 In addition to ITIL training, a well planned communications campaign helps instill awareness and cultural change
22 Step 2: ITSM Assessment Assessment Roadmap Planning The success of every IT Management implementation project is dependent on a combination of people, process, and technology. Understanding the current organizational capabilities, status and issues is critical to identify areas for development. This Assessment workshop draws inputs from executives, managers and IT professionals to baseline the current environment. It establishes the current status, the target and the roadmap. The results of benchmarking and reviews lead to identification of gaps in terms of people, process and technology issues. The ITSM assessment maybe based upon: - ISO/IEC COBIT - ITIL Maturity Matrix - ISM Adoption Model
23 Sample assessment results ISO/IEC Assessment Result 6.5 Capacity Management Act Plan 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% Do Check COBIT levels of maturity Max Score Assessment Score
24 Step 3: Process Organization Architecture High Level Tool Key requirements are first captured through collaborative discussions, these include: - Key Business Drivers - IT Management Objectives - IT Management Requirements - Key Value Propositions - Critical - Critical Success Factors - Issues s are then developed for the Process, Organization, and Architecture. At this stage, a high level design of the tool is also defined.
25 IBM s Management Reference Architecture can be used as a design guide for the development of the ITSM tools architecture Business System Management Modeling & Correlation Decomposition Bus System Rules & Policies Business Health Analysis Monitoring Event Management Realtime Event Data Historical Event Data Resolution Detection & Filtering Correlation Operational Monitoring Infrastructure Monitoring Monitoring Data Operation/App Monitoring Capabiities Alerting Request Management Level Management Level Negotiation Level Attainment Standard Change Request Incident Logging Contracts Project Request SLAs OLAs UCs Request Asset Management Management Foundation Provisioning Entitlement Enrollment & Subscription Asset Management Asset Control Inventory Asset Asset Auditing Reporting Configuration Management CMDB User Contact Management Communication User Contact Data UC Monitoring Fulfillment & & Analysis Routing Change Management RFC RFC Audit & Assessment Review Incident Management Logging & Classification Incident Policies & Records Diagnosis & Resolution Reporting & Dashboards Metrics and Presentation Measurement Financial Management Metering Usage Data Budget & Billing & Planning Invoicing Cost Model & Rates Cost Accounting Management Resource Management Workload Load Management Balancing Workload Monitoring Policies & Profiles Transaction Batch & Job Management Customer Profiles Catalog Offering Catalog Ordering Management Execution & Choreography Configuration Control CI Auditing Discovery Discovery Topology Management Discovery Data CI Status Accounting Data Integration RFC Data Change Change Scheduling Implementation Knowledge Management Submission and Structuring Structured Knowledge Planning & Retrieve and Maintenance Publish Report Creation Templates & Data Data Escalation Transformation Problem Management Root Cause Proactive Analysis Problem Known Errors Definition & Resolution Prioritization Planning Release Management Software Platform Distribution Distributed Distributed Software Library Hardware Store Release Packaging Patch Release Testing Capacity Management Reservation Forecasting Capacity Data Demand Management Business Resource Capacity Capacity Capacity Flow Repository Flow Scheduling Development Flow Execution Fulfillment Tasks n 2 1 \ Flows n 2 1 Quality Management Performance Management Availability Management Continuity Management Levels Capacity Financials Process Performance Analysis Availability Analysis Availability Data BIA Recovery SC Data Performance Data Performance Correlation & Tuning Availability Planning Continuity Planning Process Runtime Environment Process Management Admin Portal Process Management Support Interface Common Process Data Store Process Execution Process Reporting

28 Step 4: Detailed Detailed Tool Detailed tools design will include the configuration of the tool, the design of reports, and construction of interfaces. Detailed tool integrations need to be addressed. This phase will also incorporate system and user acceptance testing. This provides the basis for the next step of implementation.
29 Example of process integration with tools Problem Notification Shutdown Notification S C DLCI Frame Status Relay Change DTE NetView S NetView Node Down S S S Link Down C C NetView C NetView Node Up Link Up Root Cause Analysis
30 Step 5: Implementation Implementation Implementation Planning prepares the organization and align resources for the implementation and deployment. Typical activities include: - Mapping the process roles to the functional roles - Training the staff on the new processes - Tools training User Acceptance Testing and sign-off for any new tools Move to production Monitor and report on the process KPIs Management to conduct periodic reviews Develop Improvement Programs for any areas where KPIs / SLAs are not being met
