HISTORY ISOdx IT change control solutions were developed to address a real world need of Versitec, the customer support division of Cranel, Inc. Cranel is the parent company of both ISOdx and Versitec. Versitec provides information technology service and support for more than 9,000 clients, ranging from manufacturers and retailers to hospitals and financial institutions. Versitec's challenge was to constantly improve service levels while reducing the costs of supporting its customers. In researching the various reasons for customer support requests, Versitec found that nearly 90 percent of all reported issues were caused by something changing within the customer's IT environment. Armed with this information, Cranel engineers developed ISOdx IT change control software to help Versitec support engineers to proactively isolate what changed in the customer's IT environment. This ability to proactively isolate change has reduced Versitec's support costs and has improved customer service levels by dramatically reducing the mean time to resolution - up to 75 percent.
