Client Challenge
The client faced various service management inefficiencies, including an underperforming Service Desk operated by an external vendor, which posed risks to service continuity and compliance. Additionally, the lack of a clear transition plan left them exposed to managing change, impacting accountability and vendor performance. They also encountered challenges such as unutilised tools like ServiceNow, lack of governance and process maturity, operational service capabilities, inadequate third-party management, and inflexible resource allocation.
This posed risks to service continuity and compliance. Their inability to manage change impacted their ability to manage third-parties, contributing to accountability issues and unsatisfactory performance.
