Transition Services
We offer Transition services if you want HP to assume responsibility for your infrastructure or migrate it to an HP facility for support. Transition Services is an integrated set of processes and professionals that assist in transitioning/migrating a client’s infrastructure and workload over to HP. Proven procedures and processes developed and used in thousands of successful systems and environment transitions/migrations are used to ensure success.
Mainframe Transformation
We offer Mainframe transformation services if you’re looking to transition your current mainframe environment to a z/OS utility service model. Mainframe Transformation is used to move you from the heritage systems running your business today to a standard, services-oriented model. The new environment will support the need for change and enable businesses to recognize the value and performance of the service. During this phase, your processing is transformed (converted) to leveraged HP tools, procedures, and hosting templates. Once this phase is complete, you will be ready to begin operating under HP's empowered hosting state. The key deliverables in this phase are conversion, all the while continuing to meet processing requirements. The time frame for Mainframe Transformation Services is variable depending on each client’s processing profile, and the extent of transformation activity required.
And finally, we offer other necessary transformational activities required to fully implement infrastructure rationalization plans. These activities may include, but are not limited to, the following:
Migration and Management
The first step to most transformation projects is to migrate and manage your existing environment into HP leveraged services. HP service packages are designed to support your existing infrastructure and prepare you for future modernization activities.
Consolidation
As you move into an HP facility, there will be some natural consolidation of your facilities, servers, storage devices, etc. But, as you modernize portions of your overall IT environment, additional consolidation can be expected. You will be able to further consolidate your IT environments as a result of increased standardization and virtualization capabilities. As a result, you should experience higher utilization and lower operating costs.
Standardization
When operating in a leveraged HP environment, you will naturally experience increased standardization of supporting processes and toolsets, as well as the technologies employed and supported within your respective environment. In this state, you will begin to adopt HP's standard architectures and technologies in support of your business, and as a result, benefits from the efficiencies and economies of scale that come along with managing a highly standardized, homogeneous environment.
Automation
We leverage top-notch automation technologies that automate critical tasks associated with the deployment and ongoing management of your infrastructure – tasks such as provisioning, change management, monitoring, reporting, asset tracking and security. The automation of these tasks provides unprecedented levels of quality, speed, security, and scale in your operations – while reducing complexity, resource requirements, operational risks and problems resulting from human error.
Results include:
- 50% reduction in the number of alerts correlating to an incident
- 46% improvement in reaction time to detect and correct system errors and faults
- 22% improvement in batch scheduling resource requirements by consolidating to a centralized tool and support staff
- A single global repository for all standard software products, providing a 10% productivity gain for server management
