7:30am-8:45am Breakfast Roundtable: A Logical Approach to IT Service Management in Smaller Agencies
Join us for breakfast in an exchange of ideas and a roundtable discussion in "A Logical Approach to IT Service Management in Smaller Agencies". IT Service Management’s main focus is to support and deliver the IT services that are appropriate to the business requirements of the organization or agency. Whether it is a small or large agency, ITIL provides a comprehensive, consistent and coherent set of best practices. Smaller agencies have limited time, budgets and resources, yet IT Service Management can be implemented to any level or degree that is deemed necessary. In doing so, you’ll know for certain, that these processes and methodologies will provide an economical service that is reliable, coherent and of the highest quality.
9:00am-9:50am Morning Keynote
Vance Hitch, Chief Information Officer, Department of Justice, Cyber Security & Privacy Chair, CIO Council
10:00am Expo Hall Opens
10:00am-10:50am Merging Methodologies - ITIL, CMMI and ISO - Track 1
It seems as though every industry has a methodology and standards body these days. ITIL was developed to deal with the complexities of delivering IT service to the customer. CMM and its most recent incarnation, CMMI was created to guide software and system engineers through development. ISO9000 focuses on quality, repeatability and with the latest ISO9000-2000 includes elements of continuous process improvement. How do these methodologies overlap and support one another? What other methodologies are missing to complete the puzzle? The presenter will discuss how ITIL can integrate with these other relevant process methodologies.
Bob Costa, Systems Architect, Electronic Data Systems (EDS)
10:00am-10:50am Irresistible Force Meets Immovable Object: ITIL and Government Mandates - Track 2
Access controls, management control, configuration management, vulnerability assessment, intrusion detection systems -- these IT government mandates are not optional. They are required. Can ITIL “best practices” co-exist or even integrate with these regulations? Should federal, state and local agencies have common languages and methodologies in support of these mandates? Is ITIL part of the answer? This session addresses these and other critical questions that must be answered by all in the public IT service industry.
Judith R. Alvarado, Change Coordinator, USDA/NITC
10:00am-10:50am Bring ITIL to Local Government - Track 3
The philosophy behind the development of an IT Service Management structure is the recognition that all commerce including local government agencies are increasingly dependent upon IT to satisfy their aims and meet their business needs. How do you take the service level mentality in most local government agencies and apply it to Information Technology? Defining your IT services which you provide to your internal or external customers is crucial. This presentation focuses how we identified our IT services and how they are measured in the City of Greenwood Village, CO.
J. Andrew "Andy" Atencio, Manager of I&T, City of Greenwood Village, CO
11:00am-11:50am Lessons from Procter & Gamble's Implementation of Service Management - Track 1
This presentation will include lessons from Procter & Gamble's Service Management deployment from 1998 to present. Among the topics will be the impact of organization design, common processes and financial considerations (including cost savings) and customer service. The presenter will illustrate the impact of size and global operations and how the government sector can learn from industry global operations of IT. Scalability and size of operation impact will reviewed. In the presentation, action steps will be provided for attendees to take back to their own organization. The impact of outsourcing for IT operations also will be reviewed.

Implementing ITIL processes within the Ontario Government's Ministry of Transportation (MTO) has helped MTO transform itself into a totally efficient, service management-based organization. This session will cover MTO's journey through the development and implementation of service level management, including how it leverages the service desk and service desk tool to link/map service requests and incidents to services defined in the IT Service Catalogue. The presenter also will detail how SLM defined IT services and applied them to end-to-end business application solutions, developed associated Operational Level Agreements (OLAs) and Service Level Agreements (SLAs) directly related to service delivery.

2:30pm-3:20pm The IT Service Management Performance Challenge - Track 2
This session will look at the changes in legislative requirements such as the Clinger-Cohen Act and OMB Circular A-11 that require federal government departments to alter the manner in which they deliver and are accountable for IT services. Compliance within forward-thinking IT departments has led to the implementation of ITSM and the use of ITIL to reform IT and meet these requirements. This session will reference two case studies and how the lessons learned are being utilized to enhance the delivery and quality of services while reducing the cost of services delivered.
Robert Stroud, Senior Vice President, Strategic Alliances, iCanSP
2:30pm-3:20pm The Journey from Chaos to Process at the State of Michigan - Track 3
Data Center Operations (DCO) has served as an incubator for innovative ITIL-based service management initiatives for the State of Michigan. This session will focus first on efforts at DCO to move from a state of chaos to process-based activities. Second, the experience of defining ITSM goals, performing a gap analysis and implementing the five ITIL Service Support processes in sequence will be highlighted along with lessons learned and captured metrics. Finally, the steps toward leveraging these efforts across all of the state's IT organizations will be presented.
Bob McDonough, IT Manager, Process Development and Support, State of Michigan Department of Information Technology
3:30pm-4:20pm Applying ITSM to the Development of Better Business Cases (Exhibit 300) - Track 1
Federal (and state) agencies are under increasing pressure to demonstrate the value of their IT projects by both demonstrating a return on investment (ROI) on the projects and linking the projects to specific business outcomes. Federal agencies in particular must address these issues through the Exhibit 300. ITSM provides a framework for answering many business case questions relating to performance measures, risk assessment, performance-based contracting, etc. This presentation will focus on the application of ITSM to the development and maintenance of successful business cases.
