1 Building a Foundation for Effective Service Delivery and Process Automation

2 Agenda Service Management World Tour IBM Service Management Customer Challenges Overview of Service Delivery and Process Automation Segment Solutions and case studies Service Request and Fulfillment Incident and Problem Management Asset, Change and Configuration Management Server and Application Provisioning and Release Management Why IBM?

3 Market Drivers: Businesses depend on service quality Service quality critical for: Business Growth Competitive advantage Customer retention Risk mitigation and compliance Operational and capital expense reduction Service quality impacted by: Change and complexity Rising operational costs Tougher compliance regulations Silos of information Lack of governance

4 IT Effectiveness is Decreasing An Example Up to 80% of problems are reported by users 80% Up to 85% of problems are caused by IT changing something 85% IT Users: Systems Test! Customers become the IT Systems Test Team Source: Tivoli Primary Research,

5 To maximize agility and efficiency, organizations must converge the management of business and technology 78% of CEOs believe integrating business and technology is fundamental for innovation Leaders conduct fully data-driven decision-making enabled by consistent, coordinated, integrated use of automation. Revenue and Earnings Comparisons, Leaders Outperform in Revenue and Earnings 36% Leaders Earnings 12% Leaders Revenue 7% Industry Group Earnings Organizations with extensive integration of business technology grew faster than their peers 4% Industry Group Revenues Source: IBM Global CEO Study 2006 Source: BTM Institute, Business Technology Convergence Index, 2007.

6 Organizations need to Coordinate and Integrate Their Use of Automation Need Coordination of activities across operations Need Data Driven Decision Making Need fully integrated automation to eliminate errors Managing IT is a team effort more than one person is needed! Adam is preparing Paul is updating the a new version of Laura is tracking sales app database WebSphere down the owner of a CRM server Jeff is diagnosing the CRM app errors Sally is assessing the impact of a change Joe is patching Anne is doing a a server configuration audit according to ITIL John is scheduling changes for his team

7 But there are obstacles to success: Operational & Architectural complexity hinders agility & efficiency Process execution across silos increases costs and time at the expense of service quality Spectrum of operational processes Automate Business & IT interactions Govern the way processes are executed Automate tasks across domains Automate tasks within domains Operational domains and silos

17 Our solutions are delivered via an integrated approach that provides faster time to value, grows easily with your needs, and preserves your investments Unified Solution A solution that represents the full management of data, processes, tooling and people Common Data Model The core solutions share a common data subsystem for simple data sharing Processes Working Together The core solutions share a process workflow automation engine No Rip and Replace Leverage existing investments in IBM and 3rd party IT management tools Lower Cost of Ownership Lower infrastructure and training costs, simple upgrade model Service Request and Fulfillment Management Assets Attributes Relationships Process Artifacts Related to CIs and Assets Process Definitions Server & Application Provisioning & Release Mgmt CIs Attributes Relationships Configuration Data IBM Tivoli Process Automation engine Common applications Common workflow Common reporting Common User Interface Incident and Problem Management Asset, Change & Configuration Management

18 Integrated Service Management Scenario: Automating Problem Detection and Resolution 3 4 Scenario Incident & Problem Change & Release Monitoring detects a problem. Event management filters redundant events and creates an incident ticket when needed. Incident Analyst uses ITM / TEP to see how infrastructure resources are running. If problem detected require provisioning action (e.g. patch distribution, new resource allocation, virtual server expansion), Change Request is kicked off 2 Change and Configuration Mgmt Database (With Application Dependency Mapping) 1 Monitoring Monitoring Provisioning Provisioning 5 5 Release Deployment Management invokes provisioning tools to take automated action, & reports back completion status to CCMDB.
