 A holistic view of IT Service Management

The Captell systems capability to process and report utilising data from virtually any platform, enables the development of reporting systems that provide a holistic view of your organisations IT service delivery.

What does this mean?

Your operational service delivery tools covering areas such as change, release, capacity, help desk, incident and problem etc. collect and report information for their specific area of responsibility.  This environment may be providing you with separate reports in different formats each covering a single area that describe the performance of these separate processes.

With Captells ability to process data from all systems, including your business operational systems as well as many other forms of business knowledge, we can provide a single consistent reporting framework that can describe the performance of IT service delivery across the board.

How does this help?

Having a single view of all aspects of service delivery gives you a clear picture of what is occurring right now within your organisation, including where your areas of concern and focus should be.  This highlights the relationships between the various aspects of service delivery and enables the reporting of such.  It gives you a clear and concise view of where you are doing well and highlights  your current pain points.

Having a single source of truth for the entire IT Service Delivery landscape ensures that all are working to the same end. 

  • Management reports can show where everything is well and where extra resources and effort are required;

  • Staff at the coal face can be actively working to improve service delivery, seeing the results of their effort in detailed reports; and

  • Customers can access customer focused reports showing the level of service they are receiving.

Analysis of historical data combined with your future business requirements can identify areas of concern BEFORE they become an issue, reducing the number of unforseen incidents and problems.

In a nutshell a holistic view of IT service delivery can greatly assist you in managing your environment by:

  • Providing a clear and concise view of your current state of play;

  • Ensuring all teams charged with service delivery are working from the same information and to the same ends;

  • Identifying future areas of concern before they become issues; and

  • Helping to reduce the number of unforseen issues and therefore greatly improving the quality of service delivered to your customers.

 Captell - audit service

A recent study (reported here) reveals as much as 15% of servers world wide are not doing anything useful.  This backs our experience where most sites we have access to have show a significant number of grossly underutilised or idle servers.  The study shows the estimated cost of these servers being somewhere around $20.9 billion to run plus consume another $3.8 billon in energy costs.

Utilising our market leading Captell software package and your data, we can perform a thorough audit of your infrastructure and deliver a detailed report to you that includes:

  • identifying all server resources in use by your organisation;
  • reporting the utilisation of these resources;
  • forward projections of the expected consumption of these resources;
  • recommendations on consolidation and decommissioning of underutilised servers; and
  • suggestions for cost saving process improvements.

The benefits to your organisation by commissioning a Captell Audit may include:

  • a better up-to-date understanding of what your current IT infrastructure is and how it is being utilised;
  • a basic understanding of the near future requirements for your infrastructure;
  • a potential reduction in costs associated with running your infrastructure, including hardware costs; software licensing costs; and environmental costs such as power and cooling etc; and
  • where possible, improved procedures with a view to reusing existing IT infrastructure and reducing future costs.

"Captell's support for automation has saved me an enormous amount of time.  Once a report has been set up it requires no further effort - data collection, retention and publication & delivery are all taken care of so I am able to spend much more time on high-value work rather than 'housekeeping' existing systems.  This has helped to identify opportunities for cost-reduction as well as service improvement."
