When transitioning Services across to us, it’s essential that Customers do not suffer any degradation of service and that systems and data are not placed at an unnecessary risk.
We utilise a mature set of onboarding processes and resources for the transition of Support Services. We follow this process, so that your services are provisioned efficiently, cost- effectively and with minimal impact, in order to achieve the following:
•Consistent, Predictable Service- Onboarding allows us to gather information on systems that can be passed on to the Service Desk, allowing engineers to provide End-users with effective support from day one.
•Minimised Risk- By onboarding properly, we minimise the risk to you by gaining a full understanding of incumbent systems and creating a roadmap for migration to new systems if needed.
•Mutual Education- The onboarding doesn’t just let Six Degrees get to know a new Customer, it also provides; the new Customer with the opportunity to learn about Six Degrees and how we deliver our services.
•Through the effective shadowing, information gathering and documentation that takes place during Service Transition, we are able to streamline the process of moving new Customers across to our Service Desk & Support Services. - Planning service works with specific services

Through our transition approach, during the deployment phase testing of the Service components is required before Service Transition can commence. During this phase, all primary workflows are tested, including:
User accounts;
Any dedicated phone numbers or other support systems;
Operational support documentation and client portal accounts
If procuring other Six Degrees or third party services, these are also tested as part of transition.
Your allocated service transition manager will ensure this is conducted successfully.

Six Degrees Client Service Managers (CSMs) have the skills, scale and capability to support organisations using a wide range of software/hardware/IT services.
Outside of any scheduled CSIP activities or other problem management/improvement initiatives, the CSM service operates on a monthly or quarterly review period.
The “Review Period” is a calendar month or calendar quarter, as defined by the Client Service Management Option (indicated on the Order Form). Service Reviews will take place at a mutually agreed date shortly after the end of each Review Period.
At the end of each Review Period, we will collate and send to you a set of “Periodic Reports” that cover operational information within that Review Period, as described in the Service Description or a SoW. Periodic Reports will be delivered by email within 3-7 working days of the end of the agreed review period.
Following delivery of these reports, we will arrange a “Service Review” with you, which is a conference call or meeting, to review the Services that we provide to you:
i)Review of Service Level Performance Report Data
ii)Review of ITSM Report Data
iii)Review of the Continual Service Improvement Plan
iv)New Services Introduction (Premium+ Service Management only)
v)Service Review Minutes and Actions.
