Commercial Outsourcing

Meet Business Needs by Optimizing IT

SAIC's experience in commercial outsourcing has taught us that your business needs should drive the IT services that can help you meet your objectives. We base our commercial outsourcing approach, framework, delivery model and service processes on our experience. We design them to help you satisfy your business needs while you reduce costs, improve performance, and increase customer satisfaction. By using our commercial outsourcing approach to optimize IT assets and services, we have helped global as well as national enterprises solve business problems and achieve and surpass their goals.

IT Services Designed to Benefit Business

Our business imperatives approach puts business first. For commercial outsourcing, SAIC approaches enterprise IT services from the perspective of its customer's business. For example, a client's strategy to dispose of under-performing assets and acquire assets with greater potential implies a need for rapid IT transition of assets to maximize the value of those transactions.

A demand management framework is based on your business needs. Our commercial outsourcing services use a demand management framework to align objectives, optimize ROI, and anticipate business needs. This approach for enterprise IT services begins with understanding your business imperatives.

Demand Management Diagram: Displays a top heading, “Business Strategy” and an arrow pointing to “IT Strategy.” Number one: Are approved investments contributing to achievement of IT strategy? An arrow points to “Portfolio of IT Investments.”  Number two: Are approved investments contributing to achievement of IT strategy?  An arrow points to “Definition of Business Outcomes.” Number three:  How well are the desired outcomes of investments defined?  An arrow points to “Evaluation of Actual Versus Planned Outcomes.” Number four: do planned outcomes translate into actual outcomes? An arrow points to “IT Strategy” completing the circle diagram. A dotted, less noticeable, arrow points to “Business Strategy,” the first and the top heading on the diagram.  Number five: Do investment outcomes contribute value to achievement of business strategy?  How is value measured?   The last arrow, on the right-hand side of the diagram, points to a box that says, “Reduced Costs. Business and Operational Improvements.”  (This implies the end result of following the demand management diagram.)

An integrated enterprise delivery model features quality support, processes and technology. SAIC's enterprise delivery model uses experienced people, proven processes, and industry-leading technology to fully integrate our services seamlessly. The foundation of our commercial outsourcing solution is the Integrated Services Management Center (ISMC). (Figure below) ISMC is a network of delivery centers providing customer-centric IT services to global customers.

Certified service processes provide value. Our service processes are certified as both ISO 9001:2000-compliant and consistent with the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL), the leading collection of IT service management best practices in the world today.

A single point of contact increases savings and satisfaction. By integrating disparate service towers into one enterprise management model, we provide our commercial outsourcing clients with a single point of contact for significant savings and improved customer satisfaction.

Integrated Services Management Center Diagram: This circle shaped diagram centers around ISMC, around this is Experience, Process, Technology and People.  On the outer edge, are seven puzzle pieces that fit together to make a complete circle. The headings are as follows: Cross Functional-General; Cross Functional – Equipment and Software Services; Technical Computing (Server Services); Managed Network Services; End User Computing Services; Application Development and Maintenance Services; and Service Desk/Help Desk.
