IS Service Desk Performance andGemini Access Transmission Workgroup, 5 April 2012
Contents • Performance of IS Service Desk • Gemini Access
IS Service Desk Performance Issues • Service provider changed to HP on 14 March 2012 • Settling in issues: • Reduced service experienced, affecting: • Gemini account requests • Password changes • We recognise that performance has not been up to standard and are taking steps to address this
Immediate actions • We are taking the following steps: • Peak time additional call agent support • Extra training for call agents • More supervisors available to assist call agents We are also discussing with xoserve whether a 10-days service for account creation is appropriate
Gemini Access • On 29 March an account was established for EDF Trading: • Testing by EDF Trading discovered that they could see other portfolios (more on the next slide) • EDF Trading reported this immediately to National Grid’s IS Service Manager • EDF Trading’s account was corrected as quickly as possible
Portfolios Affected • Gemini transaction logs indicated that EDF Trading had accessed the screens of three other users over a very short period of time • All affected users were informed of the situation on 30 March
Further checks • Subsequent investigations confirmed: • All other account transactions since 14 March were correct • No non-National Grid/xoserve people have the pan-portfolio view
Conclusions • National Grid and xoserve regret the poor service currently being received by the community • Please be assured that we are giving this urgent senior level attention • National Grid IS have reviewed and changed the support arrangements for Gemini to prevent this happening again • Recent indications are that there have been some improvements to service centre performance, but please feed back your concerns via your usual contacts at xoserve
