BMC Helix Day 2 Operations

43 CREDITS

BMC Helix Day 2 Operations, performed by the BMC Helix Applications Managed Service (AMS) team, will manage up to three environments for one BMC Helix Product Family* for a period of 90 calendar days immediately following a successful go-live. At the end of the 90 days, BMC Helix will hand over the operations to Customer’s designee.

What you get:

The Consulting Services across each product in the BMC Helix Product Family will include administrative activities such as:

  • Content management
  • Product configuration
  • Operational reporting

For new BMC Helix AMS customers, the Service includes a period of due diligence to validate the scope and parameters of the Consulting Service. Once agreed, BMC Helix will plan and execute the transition process to operationalize the Consulting Service and make an orderly and systematic handover from existing service providers. During this phase, BMC Helix will use the skills and knowledge of existing BMC Helix project teams and the current Customer team to provide continuity and to complete knowledge transfer to the BMC Helix AMS resources.
During transition, BMC Helix will establish the governance structures required to oversee the quality and performance of the Consulting Service delivery.

  • Conduct a daily health check
