Service Portal

 

Growing expectations of internal and external customers require IT departments to reorganize their existing service processes. ITIL V3 best practices provide process organization recommendations, but companies often lack the tools needed to efficiently implement new processes. The Service Portal solution assists companies in the introduction of new processes and helps them efficiently organize their IT service processes.

 

Service Level Management
The "service level management" module monitors technical and business-related performance indicators to ensure compliance with relevant service level agreements. REALTECH's solution will generate alerts to report any deviations to the responsible administrators.

 

A detailed look at the features:

  • Maps any service catalog
  • Maps service interdependencies
  • Maps all relevant specifications for each agreement (service hours, maintenance window, thresholds)
  • Multi-user Web portal gives customers access to reports
  • KPIs – in real-time and history charts

The "service level management" module can directly access the CMDB allowing for the automation of inventory & asset management. Thanks to its integration with change, incident, and problem management processes and other configuration items users can access inventory data directly from the Service Portal.

 

Service Catalog Management
The "service catalog management" module lets IT departments organize their entire service portfolio. This component provides a foundation for effective cost allocation. The primary objective of the process is to make sure that a service catalog is developed and maintained. It needs to contain precise information on any services that are already available or in preparation. The service catalog provides all other service management processes with the information they need. This includes detailed descriptions of the services as well as information on their current status and interdependencies.

Adaptive Business Cockpit
The new Adaptive Business Cockpit automatically collects context-sensitive information on the different server and system types and consolidates it in dashboards. It will, for example, automatically display any information that is relevant to a certain type of server (e.g. Web servers) in a predefined dashboard. This gives users instant online access to all relevant data concerning business-critical applications, systems, and infrastructure components, making it easier for them to identify emerging problems. The underlying data is provided by theGuard! CMDB.

Customer Benefits:

  • Faster root cause analysis for greater problem management efficiency
  • SAP Basis administrators spend less time managing the system allowing them to focus on other projects
  • Accelerated resolution of Service Desk calls
  • At-a-glance visibility into system interdependencies reduces the risk of failures caused by changes to the system
