Clients come to us with one of these problems. This is what we build to solve them.

In our clients’ words.

What it looks like
  • 25,000 IT tickets a month, paid per ticket.
  • Noise, duplicates and repeat issues fill the queue.
  • Automations with no common support, no monitoring, no change control.
What we buildIT and service automation
  1. Data science on your tickets. Your ticket history analyzed to find what to automate first.→ 30% business case
  2. Smart ticket filtering. Noise, duplicates and non-value tickets removed before they reach the queue.→ part of the 40% removed
  3. Smart ticket correlation. Related tickets linked automatically. One ticket, one root cause.→ less manual investigation
  4. Self-healing. Recurring issues fixed with no manual step, before tickets escalate.→ zero-touch resolution
  5. Virtual agent. Users solve common IT issues themselves, without raising a ticket.→ more self-service
  6. Governed support of the estate. Incident, problem and change management, and monitoring of every automation (CS 03).→ 30% fewer incidents

The IT ticket problem

What one client paid before we started

CS 02, billed per ticket. Much of the volume is noise, repeats and simple requests. Each one costs money, and your people’s time.

No common control

Each team runs its own tools and automations, with no monitoring.

The cheapest ticket is the one that never opens. Then the one your users solve themselves. Then the one closed in seconds.

Each lever is sized on your ticket data first. Most programs combine several.
