IT Operational Endurance Assessment via Dynamic Maturity Scoring
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current IT systems face challenges in dynamically addressing changing customer needs due to legacy systems and operational downtimes, failing to provide robust, agile, and regulatory-compliant IT operations that align with business objectives and expectations.
Innovation Solution
A processor-implemented method and system assess IT operational endurance by identifying entity data, computing Essential Technology Impact scores, and calculating Endurance Maturity scores to determine the current state of IT operations and confidence in meeting business objectives, thereby calculating an operational endurance score for the entity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If legacy systems are used, then system stability is maintained, but adaptability to changing customer needs deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic assessment capabilities that allow the IT operation system to adapt its evaluation criteria and maturity levels based on changing business requirements and customer needs while maintaining stable core operational frameworks through standardized assessment protocols
2Productivity
If operational downtimes occur, then system maintenance is performed, but business productivity deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent conducts preliminary assessments of IT operational endurance before critical business periods, identifying potential failure points and implementing corrective actions in advance to prevent operational downtimes that would disrupt business productivity
Solution Approach 2:
The system continuously monitors IT operation maturity levels and provides feedback loops that enable real-time adjustments to operational procedures, allowing rapid recovery from minor issues before they escalate to productive downtime
3Productivity
If IT services are standardized, then operational efficiency is improved, but ability to meet diverse customer expectations deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality principles by customizing IT service characteristics for specific business units and customer segments while maintaining standardized core operational frameworks, allowing each local area to be optimized for its specific customer expectations without compromising overall operational efficiency
4Reliability
If comprehensive IT assessment is performed, then operational endurance is improved, but assessment complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the comprehensive IT operational endurance assessment into distinct modular components including technology domain evaluation, business service model assessment, and maturity level mapping, allowing each segment to be evaluated independently through standardized checklists and reducing overall assessment complexity

AI summary
Current business environments are dynamic, highly competitive, and are facing challenges in dynamically addressing changing needs of end users with legacy IT technologies and operational downtimes. Current available methods do not provide mechanisms to quantitatively estimate the current state of alignment of IT operations with the business' operation model based on the significance of the operation model to the business. Present disclosure provides system and method that determine the IT service alignment, operational endurance and IT operations trust for each of the operating models based on the business priority and current state of IT operations. More specifically, technology services for the IT operations are dynamically assessed and a maturity level of operational endurance is computed to meet the business's priority and needs for its operation model.
