Challenge
As a logistics and materials management provider that manages the largest fleet in Saudi Arabia, they need a solid and robust IT system and management that helps stimulate the businesses and operations and administer the staff and their communication.
While they were dealing with an IT Management Service provider, they faced numerous hardships and obstacles with which they needed to bring about improvements.
They needed to go along with the digital transformation targeted by SA in 2030. Further, they needed to enhance their IT infrastructure and processes by adopting solutions that facilitate them.
“Alrashed Transport wanted to improve its IT infrastructure and processes and focus on Digital transformation.” Ravishankar Alla Reddy said a review of Alnafitha IT services.
Among other drawbacks that Arashed IT suffered from is that they could not measure key performance indicators (KPIs). To measure KPIs, they have to gain accurate metrics from IT service management providers, which was not fulfilled before.
Additionally, they frequently encountered disorders in reporting incidents to be resolved, wasting time in finding the entitled team to settle the issue.
“From an operational perspective, incidents were being assigned and then re-assigned to incorrect support teams and often lost in a black hole.” Ravishankar Alla Reddy stated.
Generally, the whole IT service delivery had numerous pitfalls and was inconsistent and inflexible, which constituted a new challenge to choose the right ITSM solution.
Ravishankar Alla Reddy said, “We were looking for a professional company who is capability to handle our ITSM requirement and implement same in our setup. It was difficult for us to identify a company who can provide us right server and support.”
