Planwell's Service Management Model

This diagram or "Frisbee", represents the ITSM Lifecycle and core methodology supported by solutions offered by Planwell, these solutions are chosen from industry leading vendors. The approach allows a standardised framework for engagements where all aspects are considered. The 5 step process consists of;

  • Strategy - Where do you need to be?
  • Design - The solutions or changes to get you there
  • Transition - Implement these
  • Operation - Run them in production
  • Improvements - Continually align to the business

The process is an iterative cycle where each will pass in turn through the cycle under its specific criteria relevant to the cycle, the three passes represent;

  • Review present state, vision, discovery & identification
  • Solution Implementation
  • Post implementation life cycle & benefits realisation
