Minutes:

Committee were updated on the quarterly report of the Joint ICT Service for Quarter 2.

 

It was noted that the total number of incidents and service requests raised had remained stable throughout the three month period. The total number of outstanding calls had also remained high over the past year, although a slow downward trend could be seen.

 

Members heard that throughput the Quarter, the service level target of 80% of incidents and service requests being resolved within fix time was achieved at all sites except for Rykneld which had failed in July. This was the first time that fix SLA target had been exceeded at all authorities.

 

There had been a total of 22 priory two outages during the Quarter. There were no priority one outages.

 

Members also received an update on the current projects, the budget, the cost saving plan and service development.

 

Members discussed the report and enquired as to why Rykneld had not met the SLA in July. They heard that because Rykneld didn’t log as many calls, it had a larger impact on percentages when one did not meet the SLA.

 

Committee also discussed maintenance of the iPads and asked if this could be done remotely. They also raised concerns that occassionally work had been lost on the iPads once they had been brought in and updated. They heard that the Joint ICT Service were working on access to onedrive for cloud storage and also a mobile device management system. It was agreed that the Assistant Director of ICT would send out an update on this to Members.

 

AGREED - That the service report be noted.
