Benefits of Enterprise Service Management
Although the application of IT service management (ITSM) in IT organizations has gained acceptance around the world, many businesses are still unable to grasp that ITSM practices are useful in addition to their IT teams.
If your company is still waiting to adopt this new step, do not worry, you can make it happen by implementing the enterprise-wide service management (ESM) with the same type that you think about, top practices, the right technology, and the ITSM principles in teams that go beyond IT including Finance, HR, Marketing Legal, and many more.
The most fundamental aspect of Service Management is the concept of continuous service Improvement. The increased visibility gives businesses the chance to find areas of improvement and also ensures there is no decrease in the quality of service. The value for the business comes from that continual improvement.
Enterprise Service Management brings the whole process of tracking, streamlining, and executing service requests into a record system that is transparent, traceable, and controllable. It gives you the possibility to understand the exact contribution each department makes to the overall business. With advanced insight into operational performance and employees' experience (previously hidden under unstructured databases) It provides you with an overview of the areas where value is generated in your company along with the systems that enable it.
If the need for value (and the work to provide it) is apparent it becomes much easy to determine the bottlenecks and friction points present and make improvements where they are desired.
Lower Internal Operating Costs:
If your company's service infrastructure isn't optimized or streamlined this can affect overall efficiency and profit. Inexpensive operational expenses can be attributable in a variety of different ways. In many cases, the actions themselves seem normal, however, the cost associated with them can be significant in time. Examples:
- A single source of failure When a process is unable to function because the main operational stakeholder is sick or away and the request is rescinded until they come back.
- Ping-pong email is a game that involves emailing responses and requests to each other for days, or even weeks in the event that chasing requires manually mediated intervention.
- Inconsistent or confusing processes A lack of clear documentation for processes will create delays when you aren't sure whom to approach about what you need, and when to ask.
- A focus on an ad-hoc process In the event that all activities are handled in adhoc, proper priority and visibility are the first to suffer. The result is that tasks are completed according to who is the loudest and not being motivated by clear business demands.
All of these actions could result in unnecessary costs. An ESM initiative can ensure that an organization is providing services that aim to deliver business value every day. Since it provides more control and visibility over processes and related operational activities, you will be able to guarantee better quality output as well as lower operating costs.
More Profit from your technology Investment:
Naturally, as your company expands, so will your need to bring solutions for managing services to new teams, and possibly new departments. One thing you do not would want is for teams to operate on different solutions for managing services By expanding the use of the existing service management system that will adapt to the demands of your expanding business will prevent conflicts between teams while doing it in the most cost-efficient method possible.
In the case of an example, an enterprise-wide common Enterprise Service Management technology platform that is backed by a single software application, like Jira Service Management, provides the possibility to benefit from the economics of scale. It will provide a greater ROI and reduces the management expenses per user.
More Efficient:
Enterprise Service Management enables increased efficiency in support and service including best practices in general to specific capabilities like self-service, knowledge management collaboration capabilities, the complete automated business process automation.
The efficiency increase could be achieved through improving, for instance, processes by automating all tasks that can be processed in an automated manner. This, when paired with self-service and self-help features can result in fewer calls to agents at the service desk or business function counterparts and allows employees to concentrate on work that is more worthwhile. With more time on tasks, they'd like to and your employees are able to concentrate on innovation rather than manually executing processes.
Experience better and more predictable results:
Nowadays, everyone wants an exceptional service experience from a provider. They're taught to expect a high-quality digital-first workflow and a range of channels, so they can choose the most effective method.
In addition, the flow of requests can be between departments in a continuous manner. Take into consideration processes like off-boarding and onboarding of employees, that require multiple business services to efficiently and quickly work together, and ensure that everything gets done within the timeframe.
In these situations, any inconsistency in the support and service processes between the numerous shared service providers could cause unnecessary difficulties for employees to get their needs satisfied. This is a lot easier through the use of Enterprise Service Management.
ESM recognizes that to be successful with the customer, it requires a series of coordinated efforts across the entire organization. ESM is urging you to break down the silos that exist within your business. This leads to a more uniform method of working across teams as well as an improved service model and faster results for employees. Additionally, it offers the possibility to offer users a single source of information for all internal services and data sources, regardless of the service provider.
