Our journey continues…What’s in it for Desktop Support?
Our journey continues…• Continuous KCS Awareness for all of IT
• Writing KCS articles is not a one time process
• Continuation of new articles written by the Service Desk and Desktop Support Analysts and 3rd level support
• Problem Management reviews• Dr. House reviews
• Desktop Support has a seat on the project teams (documentation provided to SD to better prepare them for onboarding of new applications)
Our journey continues…..• Desktop Support has a better relationship with IT and our internal
customers
• Frees up application support for more proactiveness instead of being in reactive mode to resolve issues
• To avoid repetitive tickets, Desktop Support identifies application training that is needed for the Service Desk so they can visually see how the app works
• Education - lunch and learns on the use of KCS/Self Service
• Creation of Self Service
• Hackathon participation

The Service Catalog
The Service Catalog
Focusing on the Customer Experience• Desktop support organizations are opening the doors to their end users
and inviting them into the “back room” as a way of encouraging more face-to-face contact and improving the customer experience.
• Gartner summed it up like this: “Implement walk-up services to improve the user experience and promote self-sufficiency; do not implement them to reduce costs.”
• Walk up desks, road shows, kiosks, etc.
• There is more of a focus on the overall customer experience.• Skills• Initiatives• Surveys

Tips
• It’s important to follow the trends in the industry AND in your own company!
• Defining services, understanding work effort, and “getting out of the reactive grind” helps the team to manage the workload and to better set customer expectations.
• Continually evaluate your team’s work and your service delivery options and potential opportunities.
• The earlier your team is involved in Design and Transition processes, the less reactive they will be and the better the services.
• Prepare your team – processes, training, automation, etc.
