3 NEG Community is looking to deliver value to its customers and employees NGITS Pressures NGITS has been established as a shared IT service provider for 7 agencies Goals: 1. Evolve into an optimized shared service provider 2. Optimize investments 3. Operate and assure the integrity of the NEG enterprise architecture Results needed now High speed network connectivity and significant bandwidth required Increasing IT costs as a percentage of total budgets Avoided investing in the latest technology How can NGITS evolve into an optimized Shared Service Center? 3

4 We have identified key business objectives from our initial analysis to focus our recommendation Each objective was evaluated for its impact to the business and growth to realize value. The objectives which have the highest impact and biggest growth opportunity were selected. High Impact Business Process Redesign Operational Excellence Performance Management Cost Optimization Key Business Objectives Operational Excellence Performance Management Cost Optimization Low Low Growth Opportunity High 4

28 Service Desk Design Tier Description SUPPORT LEVEL TIER LEVEL DESCRIPTION Level 0(Self-Service) Tier 1 Level 0, Tier 1 is the first stage of the service delivery model. Tier 1 is a component of digital channel which aggregates self-help materials produced by the SD and the ACD Channel that offer escalation paths to Level 1 support where necessary. Tier 1 provides customer support without staff intervention. This approach has cost benefits to IS through improving the ROI on resources and support, and freeing NGITS staff to apply their time & expertise to more sophisticated queries. Level 1(NGITS) Tier 1 Within Level 1, Tier 1 provides initial support either through telephone or live web collaboration. Level 1(NGITS) Tier 2 Within Level 1, Tier 2 provides an advanced level of support when Tier 1 needs additional assistance. Level 1(NGITS) Tier 3 Within Level 1, Tier 3 provides an advanced level of support when Tier 2 needs additional assistance. Level 2(Local Support) Tier 1 Within Level 2, Tier 1 provides in person assistance for issues that cannot be resolved remotely via NGITS. Level 3 (Vendor Support) Tier 1 Within Level 3, Tier 1 the vendor provides initial support for issues that cannot be resolved by NGITS & Local Support. Level 3(Vendor Support) Tier 2 Within Level 3, Tier 2 the vendor provides advanced support when Tier 1 needs additional assistance. Level 3(Vendor Support) Tier 3 Within Level 3, Tier 3 the vendor provides advanced support when Tier 2 needs additional assistance. 28

34 Consolidation of Data Centers & Benefits Reasoning for Consolidating Data centers Computing demands vary resulting in capacity deficit or surplus Varying resource levels Require frequent maintenance and are energy inefficient Require multiple service teams & service contracts Agility of service delivery will be improved, resulting in lesser service outages and greater acceptance of service calls All groups require data warehousing support which can be fulfilled using a centralized repository Availability and Disaster Recovery regions are implemented here with groups falling into either buckets Leverages standardization and consistency amongst all organizations which reduce system interface complexity Enables service deployment innovatively, reallocating underutilized or over utilized resources Data centers will be zoned and security mechanisms will be set up. This ensures confidentiality and integrity of all data Source: IBM Building a shared services data center 34

35 Data Center Consolidation: Financial Benefits Examples Hewlett Packard is cutting its 85 global data centers down to six--three of which will be mirrored disaster recovery sites. HP expects this move to save the company $1 billion annually. IBM is consolidating 3,900 servers into 30 virtualized mainframes running under Linux. The company anticipates an 80% reduction in energy usage while significantly shrinking its current 8 million square feet of data center space. Microsoft is well along in its data center consolidation efforts, producing a savings of $23.2 million--a 40% cut in its pre-consolidation spending levels. Williams-Sonoma, Inc. is moving 100 stand-alone servers onto five IBM Regatta Unix servers. This effort eliminated the need to add 50 more stand-alone servers next year to handle increased processing demands. Source: Federal Data Center Consolidation Initiative 35

52 Case Study: Pfizer delivers effective data integration capabilities via a Shared Services Model Situation 85,000 employees and operations in 150 countries, Complex in how it discovers, develops, manufactures, sells and delivers its products to the global marketplace. Huge disparity in approaches and tools across the organization Led to inconsistency in quality, timeliness and manageability of the data integration solutions and architectures being delivered. Each project team was making redundant investments in tools, processing capacity and skills, with no reuse of these capabilities across projects Actions Established a vision for shared data delivery services which was founded on a set of core principles: One of the most critical and impactful approaches create a set of reference architectures, referred to by Pfizer as its "playbook." Team has established a portfolio of standard data integration, data quality, metadata management and BI tools. Action Dozens of redundant project-specific environments Additional benefits Result Lead to millions of dollars in savings on annual basis Other parts of IT benefit from standardization Source: Pfizer Delivers Effective Data Integration Capabilities via a Shared Services Model, Gartner(2008) 52
