Transformation to an information society cannot be achieved without comprehensive collaboration and concerted efforts to realise the set objectives.

  • Magic Quadrant for IT Service Management Tools
    Licensed for Distribution Magic Quadrant for IT Service Management Tools Published 6 October 2020 - ID G00451024 - 35 min read By Analysts Rich Doheny, Keith Andes, Mark Cleary IT service management tools are vital for infrastructure and operations organizations to deliver business value in the services they provide. This research profiles vendors in the enterprise ITSM tool market to help I&O leaders align them against their current and future IT roadmaps. Market Definition/Description ITSM tools help infrastructure and operations (I&O) organizations manage the consumption of IT services, the infrastructure that supports the IT services and the IT organization’s responsibility in delivering business value with these services. These are most heavily used by IT service desks and IT service delivery functions to support the tasks and workflows for processes including incident, request, problem, change, service level, knowledge and configuration management. ITSM tools are classified based on ITSM capabilities and integration with IT operations management (ITOM) solutions, and include: ■ Basic ITSM tools that have core ITSM capabilities such as incident, request and change management, and limited integration with ITOM solutions. ■ Intermediate ITSM tools that have broad ITSM capabilities such as configuration, problem and service-level management, and provide some basic ITOM functions or integrate with intermediate third-party ITOM solutions. ■ Advanced ITSM tools that have a full range of ITSM capabilities, provide advanced workflow support, and, increasingly, AITSM and collaboration capabilities. They also provide broad ITOM functionality natively or integrate with advanced third-party ITOM solutions. In response to digital disruption, ITSM tools are beginning to address integration requirements with the DevOps toolchain and support for agile workflows across ITSM processes.

  • Digital Scotland
    Digital Scotlan d October 2010 Preface Two hundred years ago, Scotland was in the forefront of an industrial revolution based on novel and powerful energy technologies that led to fundamental changes in economies, societies and political and social relationships. We are now caught up in another technology-enabled global revolution of possibly similar magnitude. The coupling of new digital technologies that permit acquisition and manipulation of massive amounts of information with devices that put instantaneous communication in the hands of all is again revolutionising the global economy and social, political and personal relationships. It is a revolution that has not yet run its course. It has both benefits and dangers, and its ultimate trajectory is uncertain. What is not uncertain is the need for Scotland to be at the forefront of this revolution, as it was in that of the 19th century. The Royal Society of Edinburgh’s newly created Business Innovation Forum identified the crucial role of national infrastructure in supporting the national economy and the activities of companies competing in global markets. It identified powerful digital networks as increasingly vital parts of this infrastructure, leading the Society to set up the working group which has produced the following report, which has also been endorsed by the Business Forum. The working group was chaired by Professor Michael Fourman, principal author of this report. The members of the working group and of the Business Innovation Forum are listed in appendix A. Responses to an interim report circulated for consultation in July 2010, and subsequent advice from many quarters (see appendix J) have contributed substantially to this final report.
