Avarn Security Finland embarked on a mission to optimize its IT operations, serving an employee base of roughly 3,000 individuals. The company turned to Matrix42 Professional to address inefficiencies in their inherited IT setup and streamline daily operations.
The Challenge
When Avarn Security Finland's representative, Waltteri Wolin, joined the organization, they were working with a highly complex IT system inherited from several previously merged companies This fragmented setup caused operational bottlenecks, with support processes buried in email and lacking visibility or structured workflows.
It was clear that their IT landscape required a fresh start. Avarn Security Finland needed an ITSM solution capable of centralizing operations, implementing robust workflows, and adhering to standardized IT practices to ensure smooth and efficient processes.
The Solution
Matrix42 Professional provided the foundation to rebuild Avarn Security Finland’s IT Service Management environment. Starting from scratch, they created a robust, modern ITSM system based on ITIL processes, complemented by tools like CMDB for comprehensive resource tracking. The initial focus was on IT departments, and the system is now expanding to include non-IT user groups.
