The client is a global mining and construction equipment manufacturing major. Headquartered in Japan, the company operates across Americas, EMEA and APAC.

When Infosys took over the organization’s infrastructure support, we realized that they faced operational and business challenges in their infrastructure ecosystem, which had to be modernized. As a trusted System Integrator, Infosys offered varied services, including application implementation, IT support, and infrastructure support.

Key Challenges

The company was facing several challenges across its IT landscape, including:

  • Gaps in infrastructure support: Poor SLA reporting, lack of structured system monitoring, difficulties in keeping the documentation, application, kernel patches and OS patches up-to-date.
  • Poor user experience: Deficiencies in infrastructure support impacted application quality and availability, thus leading to increased need for support and poor employee experience.
  • Lack of standardization: Different operating models were in use for each of the three large business units.
