INTRODUCTION

Page 3: SUCCESS STORY OF CHANGE IN CISCO

Use of traditional method-“SILO BASED ORGANIZATION

STRUCTURE”

This lead to duplication of effort & lack of focus at CISCO.

So, what does this SILO mean??

PROBLEM AT CISCO

Page 4: SUCCESS STORY OF CHANGE IN CISCO
Page 5: SUCCESS STORY OF CHANGE IN CISCO

CISCO IT’S NETWORK and Data Center Services (NDCS) organization needed “focus.”

To leverage Cisco and industry network leading practices to achieve a highly available, reliable operations infrastructure

TRIGGER FOR CHANGE:

Page 6: SUCCESS STORY OF CHANGE IN CISCO

NDCS engaged NAIS to identify the areas that needed to be changed and recommend how to proceed .

Operational Risk Management Analysis (ORMA)was done by NAIS to mitigate operational risk and network complexity

STRATEGIES FOLLOWEDNAIS begins the

process by interviewing business and IT leaders and senior engineers, and then gathers technical, process, tools, and organizational documents and templates.

After an assessment, NAIS outlines a detailed remediation plan to achieve business and availability goals, and prepares an achievable vision and roadmap.

DECISION MADE AFTER ANALYSIS:Decided to think

outside of the traditional IT BOX

Restructure the organization to accommodate the rapidly changing IT needs.

Page 9: SUCCESS STORY OF CHANGE IN CISCO

SOLUTION:Switched to

CISCO’S OWN “LIFE CYLCE BUSINESS MODEL”.

With more than 400 employees in NDCS, this was a substantial restructuring.

The Cisco lifecycle methodology comprised of six phases

Testing the Lifecycle

MethodologyThe change involved

moving some resources from the former Engineering and Operations teams to the new Implementations team.

This was a key component of the restructuring and presented the opportunity for the new Operations team to focus without the distraction of deployments.

As well, other NDCS team members were able to concentrate on their specific areas of expertise.

RESULTS OF IMPLEMENTATIONBefore using the lifecycle methodology, NDCS had: •An average of approximately 150 client-impacting incidents per quarter •Total impacting outage duration of 1000-plus hours per quarter •A defective root cause percentage consistently above 40 percent.

The Cisco lifecycle methodology now provides a focus on operational excellence with these results: •Incidents have decreased to approximately 70 per quarter •The total impacting outage duration has been reduced to 300 impact hours per quarter •The defective root cause percentage is now consistently below 10 percent
