Put an end to guess-work.
Get the facts.
“You can’t manage what you can’t measure.” It’s a piece of wisdom that goes back at least as far as Galileo Galilei. Whoever first said it, this phrase describes the core problem of application management. Many companies don’t know precisely:
how many application users call their service hotlines—hourly, daily, monthly,
what errors occur—and how long it takes before they’re fixed,
how many changes are made to their systems each day,
what costs are incurred and when, how their service performance compares to
that of their competitors.
In short: many companies don’t know what Application Management Services can achieve— or don’t take advantage of it. Is it because they don’t have the right tools—or don’t realize what those tools can do for them?
Numbers, data, freedom.
Ordered, systematic application management is sometimes underestimated as a lever for business success. Even the most stable application management systems have the potential for further im -provement. Complex systems are constantly changing and expanding, so there’s an ever- present risk of catastrophe. It’s a lot more reassur-ing to feel that no matter what the situation, you’re “master of your applications”. To have a constant overview and always have the daily facts and data close at hand. That ensures good IT management for the company’s various departments and more stable applications through highly professional upkeep, maintenance and development. An indispensable foundation for productivity and corporate organization. Application Management Services from T-Systems helps you to create order and think freely.
Application Management Services offers the highly systematized maintenance, upkeep and development of applications around the world on the basis of precisely measured data and service level agreements.

Using the industrial method.
We produce our IT services in the same way industrial manufacture is organized—using the following principles:
standardized platforms and processes highly precise specialization
international division of labor extensive automation certified quality management availability on demand
That’s how T-Systems is able to deliver premium quality service at anytime, in any location. Always tailored to need, quickly scaleable and above all, exceptionally cost-efficient. And reflecting as we do our customers in industry, we’re just the people to understand their needs.
And always methodical.
Application Management Services from T-Systems uses a modular, seamless approach that has already been thoroughly tried and tested: AMbition. A Quick Scan delivers an initial rough evaluation with preliminary “house numbers” for standard operation. The conception stage and Service Scan yield a customer-specific operational model with defined service level agreements. For the delicate transition stage, AMbition provides a proven, stable bridge to pilot operation that leads eventually to standard operation. Then the optimization of application operations becomes completely routine. That means stable applica-tions over a long period at a significantly lower cost—plus a clear overview with total control.
You’re at the helm—
the Service Cockpit.
The Service Cockpit from T-Systems gives you an overview of the current status of all running applications at any time. You can see:
precisely which applications are available, and how fast they’re running. If performance is not up to requirements, you can find out why by clicking on each individual component.
to what extent an application’s support of a business process meets expectations. Is the process completed within the time expected? Is the workflow generating unnecessary “drag”? How many tasks, once begun, are successfully completed?
the quality of the available applications. How often are users having to contact the hotline? How fast and how competently are questions answered? Are problems resolved at a consistent level of quality? How high is user satisfaction? what costs are generated where: e. g. support
expenditure per application and user, costs for errors in the application, costs for updates… using preset keys, cost sources can also be defined.
The roadmap to Application Management Services: the best route
to more power than ever.

Service Scan from T-Systems is a systematic examination of your applications operation. Working closely with the client, we methodically examine every process using ITIL criteria and key performance indicators. Every step is measurable and transparent. We locate where the potential is for optimization and lay the groundwork for further decision-making.
Objectively excellent.
T-Systems is the first company in the world to be certified by SAP as a “Global SAP Application Management Service Provider”. This objectively confirms that international companies can completely rely on T-Systems to deliver all SAP Application Management Services, anywhere in the world, at a consistent, high quality. In the process of certification, SAP auditors subjected T-Systems locations in Germany, Mexico and India to an analytical appraisal. For example, with regard to the automotive, telecommunications and manufacturing industries, which rely to a great extent on SAP processes, we were able to demonstrate “in real time” that our applications management can deliver everything that T-Systems promises.
