Journey of ITIL Adoption2011 – Expanded focus – Availability, End‐to‐end IT Business Service 

Design, Change and Release support availability – future state realignment

2010 – ITIL v3 lifecycle approach ‐ KPIs ‐more consistency ‐ holistic approach to application of ITIL ‐measure maturity Compliance more of a driving force for maturity

2009 – Tool Change

Continue to refine individual enterprise processes

2002 – Config & SLM processes, Tool Change

Incident, Problem, Change across Systems departmentInitial process focus was incident 

1996 – Implemented first service desk tool – tool & data center focus

Top Resistors to Org Change  

• “We need subject matter expertise to execute the process assignment” 

• “We’ll lose control and authority”• “Why do we need this?  We already do it well today in our space”

• “You’re just putting in more red tape and more hoops to jump through”

Adoption Job Aides 

• Roadmap…• List of characteristics/behaviors• Assign a process maturity level• Add prescriptive information ‐ the “How to”• Refine the sequencing within the maturity level• Identify dependencies• Adjust sequencing across all processes based on level of effort and cross‐process dependencies

• Group into iterations based on level of effort

Call handlers are identified, assigned and trained.

The training and preparation of the call handler should include: •  Training for how to use the call logging tool•  The specific and general goals management hopes to reach through the use of Incident Management

•  Call logging expectations and quality of data collected

The long term objective of Incident Management is to move the handling of incidents to the least expensive means for resolving them, such as a first‐level call center or help desk.  However, that is not usually an all‐at‐once activity, but rather a migration.  Therefore, adopting Incident Management starts by organizing the support behaviors of existing staff.  ...Validation:1. Validate analyst process assignments by running report SM0188 Process Assignment by Workgroup Manager ‐ On Demand. 2. Validate training has been completed for:

Adoption Job Aides 

• Assessment tool – Self‐assessment– From characteristics & prescriptions– Tie to business goals

• Gaps– Which characteristics can not be done currently?– Work efforts to address the gaps

22

Top Keys to Success:

• Top Down or Bottom Up • Executive support vs. Executive understanding • Grow permanent ITSM capability• Right people to the right assignments• Start with Education…  ITIL Foundations is not enough… 

• Manage by Data ‐ synthesize continuous service improvement plans

• Balanced leadership messages• Leadership actions speak louder than words

Top Accelerators / Decelerators:

• D = lack of  ITIL education• D =  # of concurrent assignments slow adoption• D = Hidden rewards to cowboy culture• A = Centralizing assignments to higher organizational levels

• A = Simple, automated, integrated processes• A = Stay close to industry standards

4‐P’s – People, Process, Products, Partners.

People Process

Products(Tools)

Partners

• Must maintain balance across all sectors• Highly mature detailed processes and best of class tools does

not equal high adoption, performance and maturity by people• Over emphasis on any one sector will not override deficiencies

in the others• Partners includes your users and business partners (such as

your customer contact center)

26

Page 28: Session 607: Maturing Service Management at State Farm®

People

• Education• Accountability through tools such as RACI• Organization Change using tools like ADKAR• Selecting the right people 

– Competencies– Education– Experience

27

Page 29: Session 607: Maturing Service Management at State Farm®

Leading with Data

• Why capture data if you don’t use it? 

• So what, now what?

• What’s your Data ROI?

28

Page 30: Session 607: Maturing Service Management at State Farm®

Recap

• Have a Purpose (Future State)• Market the Vision and Value• Balance Your Approach• Don’t try to get it all right the first time• Start with the right ingredients (people, process, products, partners)
