  1. RITS Forum 29 October 2009 Nick Ziogas IT-UDS

  2. Purpose of the forum • Introduce RITS and explain what will change with the new tool • To engage Service managers in the configuration of their services within the new tool and solicit their response on specific issues. • Prepare the Service Managers and support personnel for the introduction and use of RITS so that there are no surprises when PRMS will be phased out. • Provide a forum to raise any issues, use cases, potential pitfalls etc that may have been overlooked. • RITS covers the service needs while consistent with the new departmental service initiatives. • Prepare the transition and make sure the RITS introduction is smooth.

  3. Scope & Organization • As part of the IT Department Service Improvement initiatives decided by the POC • The Service Catalogue and its representations. Used in: • IT Home Page • RITS • Knowledge base (Faq) • The Service Desk • Any where the IT services are exposed (Process definition, Configuration management…) • Everything ties up together in the end so related issues will come up.

  4. Scope & Organization • Regular meetings to keep you informed and request your input. No fixed period but every 2-3 weeks. According to progress. • RITS forum egroup: RITS-forum@cern.ch • SharePoint site: https://espace.cern.ch/RITS-Forum. All egroup members can contribute.

  5. Who is doing what in this context? • UDS – US: • New contract definition and implementation • Defining new Service Desk procedures and implement the changes • IT Service improvement initiatives (POC) • Contractor – Transition plan (us & Contractor) • Tools (FIO-FD) • SM contribution • Make sure the changes are communicated to the end users and our reasons understood • FIO – FD: • Tool selection, evaluation, configuration and development where needed • Introduce the new service, phase out PRMS, migration and running the service • Coherence guardian. SDB 2.0 initiative to envelope all • IT Service Managers

  6. Why this now? • PRMS with all its shortcomings served us well. • PRMS configuration done by ‘domain managers’. • Concepts ‘hanged in the air’ (categorization ,SLA, contractor responsibility, SM role, interaction with HD) • Changes: Well defined roles and responsibilities. Service Owners, Service Managers, SD ticket lifecycle responsibility, SLA… • Map the above to the tool • Define the services according to what matters to service and needs to be monitored. • Service Manager ‘s responsibility.
