Initial situation
What was the situation up to now?
At the Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn, faults and operational failures were previously reported by telephone to the SPOC or recorded via a request console in the Remedy Midtier. However, the locomotive staff were unable to determine whether a fault had already been reported. This sometimes led to duplication. In order to process incidents better in future, BMC Remedy ITSM should be updated to version 20.02.
The aims of the project were:
- Upgrade to the latest BMC version to maintain software support
- Introduction of the new Smart IT, Digital Workplace (DWP) and Knowledge Management modules
Customer benefits
What has improved as a result of the solution?
With the upgrade from BMC Remedy 9.1.02 to version 20.02, the Smart IT, Digital Workplace and Knowledge Management modules were also implemented. This enables Matterhorn Gotthard Bahn staff to accurately record faults and better recognize whether problems have already been registered. Thanks to the Smart Recorder function based on Smart IT, service desk staff can immediately identify duplications and use Knowledge Management to process incidents more efficiently. By implementing an interface in the new "ZEDAS" system and integrating the interface to RailOpt, faults are also displayed and transmitted throughout the company.
The following advantages result from the upgrade to BMC Remedy Version 20.02:
- When entering a fault, you can immediately see whether similar problems have already been recorded
- Easier recording of faults in a clearly structured tool (Digital Workplace)
- Get more efficient help with troubleshooting by displaying knowledge articles
