CHALLENGE OVERVIEW:
Our client is a large global insurance company focused on these core business segments: Global Life and General Insurance.
Users of this IT Application Operations will be used by the COO and their main intention is to get a quick look at the dashboard and get an outlook of the overall application operations across different countries in Europe (Belgium, Netherlands, France, Finland, Sweden, Norway, South Africa, and Russia).
AUDIENCE:
Chief Operating Officers (COO)
DESIGN GOALS & PRINCIPLES
Below are some of the goals:
- These datasets require a design that can display a lot of table data, in lots of rows. While this is true, try not to have too much information on your screen, you can make them compelling by making the visualization interactive and enable users to walk through or drill into the different insights.
- Elegant, clean, simple, user-centered look and feel with modern aesthetics
- Use color, visual comparison, and drill-down charts to highlight comparison.
- The overall design and user experience
- Engaging and easy-to-use/interact UI
- How well does your design align with the objectives of the challenge?
In terms of expectations, we would like to measure the concept against the following in the one to ten scales (ask the client to rate each of the parameters):
Creativity: 10
1: barely new ideas
10: a utopic product but with features that can be fully implemented
Aesthetics: 8
1: low-fidelity design, wireframe or plain sketch
10: top-notch finished looking visual design
Exploration: 8
1: strictly follow an existing reference or production guideline
10: open to alternative workflows/features not listed here that would help the overall application
Branding: 8
1: don’t care at all about the branding just functionality
10: without a properly branded product there is no success
BRANDING GUIDELINES
Please use the branding that has been provided in the forums

1) IT Applications Ops:
Required KPI's for this dashboard:
Availability of business-critical applications and non-business critical applications
Availability business-critical applications
(see sample data: Business and Application Interruption Report.xlsx/Countries Interruption Report - Final.xlsx)
- This reflects the application availability to ensure business-critical services comply with business needs
- Your visualization should have these details:
- Number of applications that had an outage in a month
- Outage duration for each of the business-critical applications
- Also, include the description of the incident
- Allow the user to drill-down, so they can view other details of the outage
- Number of applications that had an outage in a month
- This is the same as above just that this shows the outage of the non-business critical applications.
- You can think through how effectively these can be represented in the visualization
Commentary on CAA availability where targets missed
Please refer to detailed Resolution Notes (for reporting) in Business and Application Interruption Report.xlsx
- This shows the Insight into reason (incident) for each of those applications that missed the CAA target.
- This can be put up as a drill-down from the above visualizations
Critical application performance per EMEA BU as a percentage
- Need to show the visualization on how often the availability of the application is down, performance is affected Indicates overall BU performance
MIM stats per month per EMEA BU
Please see Countries Interruption Report - Final.xlsx
- This shows the overall status of the applications grouped by BU or Countries
- Establish overall EMEA position and by BU to identify areas of concerns
- Shows visualization as a Rolling 12 months representation
Number of reactive and proactive application
- This is more text-based and the total volume of data is very less
- Show the problem record ID, Description and click on it shows reveal/drill-down to more information
Problem Records
Problem management Global RCA stats (Pmi - PM6)
Please see Problem Record Dummy Data 2021-02-05.xlsx
- Demonstrate effectivity of process is how many iRCAs within the target, how many actions by the due date
Number of reactive application problem records
- Indicate how many incidents triggered root cause analysis
Number of pro-active application problem records
- Reflect agility of CI SEO team to prevent the incident occurrence
Cost allocation
(We will be looking to provide the sample for this one at the checkpoint)
- Need to show the visualization for the Cost allocation per application/process based on the country
- Shows visualization as a YTD representation
Service Desk incident volumes & top call drivers
Please see incident.xlsx
Volume application incidents Sev1, 2, 3, 4
- This will reflect application stability for the full outage and degraded services (e.g. reporting not working only)
- Show the volume of applications that comes under the Sev 1, 2, 3, or 4.
Service Desk Incident volumes
- Related to number 3, different classification for category/sub-category for volumes
- Display a graph with the category/sub-category hierarchy
- Indicates end-user experiences / top reasons for calls/opportunities to promote new technologies
Service Desk Top call drivers
- Category / Sub-category hierarchy with the resolution codes
- Indicates areas requiring focus (either ITS or BU)
Sev3 WL volumes and trends
