Service · ITSM & Enterprise Service Management

From ticket factory to service organisation.

Most ITSM programs fail the same way: a shiny tool, a tired process, and adoption that flatlines after go-live. We do it the other way around, operating model first, tool second, adoption always.

01 / Why now

The problem isn’t the tool. It rarely was.

We help IT and shared-services functions design service management that fits how the organisation works, and then make the tool serve the model, not the other way around.

  • ITSM tooling has been replaced twice, and the same complaints come back.
  • ESM is a slide; HR, Facilities and Finance still run on inboxes and Excel.
  • Process documentation is impressive. Day-to-day behaviour, less so.
  • Tickets are measured. Outcomes for the business are not.
  • Every change goes through CAB, and nobody trusts the data behind it.

02 / What we cover

Four pillars. One coherent service organisation.

Operating model

Service management as a way of working, not a department.

  • Service catalogue grounded in business outcomes, not tool fields
  • Roles, ownership and decision rights from L1 to service owner
  • Process design pruned to what genuinely adds value
ITSM (IT)

ITIL where it helps, pragmatism where it doesn’t.

  • Incident, request, change, problem & knowledge, fit-for-purpose
  • Change management that protects the business without strangling it
  • CMDB & service modelling tuned to real decisions, not perfection
ESM (beyond IT)

Service excellence for HR, Facilities, Finance & more.

  • One service experience layer across functions
  • Shared catalogues, shared SLAs, one front door for employees
  • Process design that respects each function’s realities
Tooling

Vendor-neutral by design.

  • Independent selection, ServiceNow, Jira SM, TopDesk, Ivanti, Freshservice
  • Implementation oversight or hands-on delivery, your call
  • Out-of-the-box first; customization only where the business case is real

03 / Our approach

Four moves. From ticket queue to service organisation.

01 · Diagnose

Where the friction lives.

  • Maturity assessment across people, process, data & tooling
  • Value-stream mapping on the services that matter most
  • Honest read on adoption, ownership and tooling fit
02 · Design

An operating model people will defend.

  • Service catalogue, roles, RACI and decision rights
  • Process design lean enough to survive Monday morning
  • Tooling target picture, fit, gaps and the smallest viable change
03 · Build & implement

Configuration over customization.

  • Tool configuration aligned to the model, out-of-the-box first
  • Integrations with HR, ITAM, monitoring & GRC where it earns its place
  • Data model & CMDB scoped to the decisions you make
04 · Adopt & run

Adoption is the deliverable.

  • OCM, enablement & service ownership embedded from day one
  • KPI set tied to business value, not ticket throughput
  • Continuous improvement on real signals, not survey theatre

04 / What you get

Service management that earns its keep, every day.

Adopted

A model people use because it makes their day easier

Vendor-neutral

Tooling selected on organisational fit, not vendor preference

Coherent

One service experience across IT, HR, Facilities & Finance

Measurable

KPIs tied to business outcomes, not ticket throughput

05 / Client story

Two decades inside ITSM and ESM programs, across tools, sectors and scale.

We’ve led ITSM and ESM transformations inside Belgian utilities, financial services and public-sector organisations, Ypto, FAVV/AFSCA, Fluvius and Constructiv among them. As client-side architect, program lead and interim service owner. Reference cases on request, under NDA.

07 / Stories behind the expertise

One short story per capability. Named clients. Measurable outcomes.

Constructiv logoITSM · Constructiv

Uniformity@ICT, strengthening ICT's capabilities.

A 25-person ICT department had grown organically and lost coherence. We harmonised the key service management processes and introduced a governance structure that fit how the team actually works.

What we didUnified incident, change and release management on Jira Service Management & Confluence, with a value-driven operating model grounded in ITIL where it helped.

FAVV / AFSCA logoESM · FAVV / AFSCA

From IT strategic plan to a working service organisation.

The new CIO had an ambitious ICT strategic plan but needed a way to land it across the organisation. We translated the plan into a Service Operating Model that mapped people, processes and tools to every strategic objective.

What we didActed as co-pilot to the CIO, coached the management team, and delivered the components FAVV had less in-house experience with — embedding the new way of working as we went.

Nasdaq / ex-Adenza logoTool selection · Nasdaq / ex-Adenza

ServiceNow, selected on fit, not on the loudest demo.

A fast-growing Adenza needed a scalable target operating model and a tool that could keep up. After an ITSM maturity assessment we built the business case, drafted the RFP from our proprietary requirement set, and steered the selection.

What we didServiceNow chosen for CSM, ITSM and ITOM; the implementation became one of Nasdaq's top-five strategic projects worldwide, with Xedis as client-side co-pilot.

Fluvius logoOperating model · Fluvius

A business control centre for the digital meter chain.

The end-to-end data chain for Flanders' digital meters runs from the meter itself, through external service providers, up to the energy-market business. Fluvius needed to be able to commit service levels back to that business with confidence.

What we didDesigned and built a business control centre as part of our ESM offering: new processes, new staff, new tools, new governance — transversal across departments, anchored in back-to-back SLAs with every supplier in the chain.

ConfidentialSIAM · Large Belgian public-sector organisation

Designing and building a SIAM layer, properly.

We are designing and building the SIAM layer for a large Belgian public-sector organisation. From operating model and governance design through to implementation, the foundation for a multi-supplier IT environment that works as one.

What we didSIAM service delivery model, governance architecture and roadmap; service integrator role design, process & tooling model — the foundation that lets the client integrate, govern and steer suppliers in a hybrid organisation. Client name confidential, engagement ongoing.

NMBS / Ypto logoChange · NMBS / Ypto

DigitalPROS, adoption for a 20,000-user digital transformation.

NMBS-IT was rolling out Office 365, Exchange Online, Windows 10 and refreshed assets for more than 20,000 users. The technical rollout was only half the job — adoption had to land at every level.

What we didBranded the change as DigitalPROS, built a champion network on Yammer, aligned with HR's New Way of Working, and ran Executive Sponsorship Workshops with Microsoft. Similar change-management play delivered at Sibelga.
