"There is now an increasing expectation from Information Technology as a critical business enabler. Worldwide, more and more companies are looking towards deploying IT Service Management best practises that can bring overall improvements to business performance. Taking the message of IT Service Management (ITSM) to a larger audience in the region, Compuware is organisng a series of one day seminars in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and UAE," said Mr. Michael Allen, EMEA Sales Director - IT Service Management Solutions, Compuware.
IT Service Management (ITSM) is all about turning IT data into information that's meaningful to the business. Every level of the organization benefits-from executive management to IT end users. However, each level requires different types of information. Dashboards and reports must be customized appropriately to management, operational and IT roles. IT Service Management (ITSM) combines best-practice IT processes - such as ITIL®, end-user experience monitoring and automated technology management. This enables IT to understand the business impact of IT service quality. It also facilitates prioritization of IT resources and problem resolution based on business needs and communication of real-time business-driven performance metrics with key business and IT users. Adopting the ITSM approach improves operational efficiency, reduces costs and increases customer satisfaction.
"Deployment of best practice ITSM frameworks can free up critical resources from day-to-day management and maintenance tasks and enables the organisation to focus on the strategic imperatives. At the roadshow, we will highlight how ITSM helps IT integrate more firmly with the business\'s strategic objectives and also help optimise conventional routine tasks and processes, making them more efficient," Mr. Allen explained.
