Service Select: enhancements

business challenge

The cost of service management could represent more than half of your total information communications technology (ICT) budget, so any efficiency gained in this area can yield considerable savings. To be successful, you need the right people, processes and tools in place so that the entire infrastructure runs reliably and efficiently without disruption.

our solution

Service Select is our ITIL®-based service management solution, which delivers operational support for your infrastructure. We have recently enhanced it with: greater product coverage, such as Business Everywhere, Maintenance and Satellite services; more features, such as bandwidth optimization; a new VPN Owner option; and better reporting. It includes:
  • Customized Infrastructure Care to successfully manage multiple services across our portfolio, your infrastructure and other service providers
  • Service Vision to help you manage service level agreements (SLAs). This provides metrics that show contractual obligations as well as operational trends to quickly identify SLA compliance.

our approach

Orange achieved ISO 20000 certification in service management. Few international businesses are able to claim certifications on such a broad scope. Service Select aligns with the ITIL® service management categories of service delivery and service support. It provides greater flexibility and enhances our proven customer care tools and processes with new support options.
You can choose from three levels of service to best meet your business requirements:
  • standard: reactive support designed to work alongside your own qualified internal resources
  • extended: ideal for businesses working in dynamic environments that need day-to-day, proactive support from our expert teams
  • customized: tailored services for complex projects or environments that require constant, expert management and cover Orange services, customer infrastructure, third-party devices and other service providers.
 

the result

Our service management solution allows you to manage Orange and third-party services resulting in:
  • faster incident resolution
  • proactive monitoring
  • strong SLAs and ability to measure them
  • improved change control
  • comprehensive reporting.

business benefits

With Service Select you can realize up to 20% savings on your service management costs, gain 100% visibility and control over your entire infrastructure (even third parties) and experience 30% less business disruption. Simplify life by having one partner to manage multiple services across our portfolio, your infrastructure and even other service providers.
