1 Network & Security Management Vendor Management IT Infrastructure Management 24x7 Application Support Infrastructure Service Support IT Helpdesk Database Management & Administration Infrastructure management for ONGC Overview: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) is India s public sector company engaged in Crude Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production, having a market share of above 80 per cent. It is one of the fast growing groups in the world and it is India s flagship exploration and production (E&P) company, accounting for 60% of total proved reserves in the country. It is a fully integrated petroleum company, and operates along the entire hydrocarbon value chain. A Fortune-Global 500 Company, it is not only the largest E&P Company in India but also one of the most valuable companies in India.

2 ONGC has over 43 centres across India that are regularly using diverse range of over IT equipment to enable exploration and production of fuel (oil and gas). ONGC is always looking for service providers established in the industry for technology transfer, absorption, and technical support. In 2010, ONGC partnered with CMC for comprehensive Maintenance Support Services (MSS) and Facility Management Services (FMS) of its IT infrastructure at various locations across India. CMC aimed to achieve optimum uptime of the devices, equipment and networks for optimum utilisation of resources and availability of applications to the end-users. It has an SLA of minimum 99 per cent uptime where ONGC is operational 24 by 7. CMC s strengths in the areas of infrastructure service support, all India presence, vendor management, logistics, and availability of technical skilled and certified resources resulted in this partnership with ONGC. Business Challenge ONGC support project is very huge. The operation centres are distributed across the country at 43 different locations with a range of IT equipments, servers, software etc. In the past, all the servers were not configured uniformly and software/ EMS at each server were not customised in accordance with each other. Any reports and data extracts were restricted to that particular server location only and were not available in real-time. Hence, it became a very big problem for the managers to access various data/ reports, and to generate any reports centrally at a single place to monitor and control the entire support operations. This lack of central monitoring, communication and follow up by the site team resulted in SLA violations and NPDs (Non Performance Deductions) by ONGC which hampered CMC s profits. Other than that there was lack of quality asset control, undefined roles, repeated tasks and unrecognised goals for IT Staff. How we helped CMC provided enterprise-wide comprehensive Maintenance Support Services (MSS) and Facility Management Service (FMS) for ONGC s existing and upcoming IT infrastructure at various locations across India. The support was made available through an extended IT enabled Maintenance Services Chain Management System (e-mscm) including ITIL services support and delivery processes, to ensure system availability of minimum 99 per cent. CMC initiated a pilot project of measuring and improving quality of two services for ONGC s internal customers with ITIL framework. CMC provided support to the entire IT infrastructure of Local Area Network and Wide Area Networks; networking equipment; serviced, PCs, printers, UPS, other peripherals, operating system, office automation, software, UTP cables, other related hardware and software, etc. It also provided service desks, 2/6

3 network management security, server management, desktop management, domain management, antivirus management, training to new staff on current systems, etc. It was involved in network changes, server changes, spare part changes, vendor management, SLA management, resource management, etc. CMC pioneered a SLA linked performance monitoring web based tool called Monitor which helped in consolidating various near real-time data and evaluating possible SLA violations with ONGC and the financial impact it may generate for CMC. This helped to find out which SLA terms were violated and how the situation could be improved or controlled in time. MONITOR giving SLA violation and NPD details CMC provides its expertise and experience while procuring IT investments. As CMC has contacts with national and international OEMs, it is in position to suggest ONGC the most cost effective and efficient IT investment recommendations.

This tool provides different dashboard views to monitor and control the Service desk operations, financial impact of each and every call from different dimensions. There are more than 15 different Non Performance Deductions due to different SLA violations. This tool provides a consolidated impact analysis to control the NPDs. 3/6
