The INOC Team provides end-to-end support from inside and outside the NOC, 24x7.
Learn how INOC built operational capacity and reduced response time for a large data center, colocation, and interconnection provider with more than 20 facilities across the United States.
Read the Case StudySuccess in NOC support is a combined effort between the NOC team and the critical teams supporting it. The INOC Team encompasses all of these roles and functions, giving you a complete support package from initial service transition to close-knit customer experience management (and everything in between).
Our Service Transition team onboards you and your customers’ infrastructure with client-supplied information and assistance. After New Service Onboarding is complete, we make subsequent changes to reflect ongoing shifts in your or your customers’ infrastructure and support environment. Change Management records and manages changes to devices, circuits, applications, monitoring and NOC runbooks.
We support outsourced NOC integrations with a wide range of client, third-party, SaaS, cloud, and OEM-specific systems, including trouble ticket systems, NMSs, EMSs, device types, operating systems, cloud, and application infrastructure.
We’ll integrate with your databases (and third-party databases) for reporting and various other activities. You'll also get custom monitoring functionality to ensure the NOC has a comprehensive view into your entire infrastructure.
A well-managed quality or service assurance program enables the NOC to identify and resolve problems before they significantly impact you or your customers. We conduct our own quality control and look at a wide range of metrics to understand how our service is performing for you. In addition, each instance of client feedback is followed up by NOC management with an internal review of the service to evaluate responsiveness metrics, adherence to runbook procedures, customer interaction, and technical troubleshooting (just to name a few).
Such quantitative and qualitative measures, and the resulting feedback, reduce the likelihood of recurring problems. Monthly and quarterly stakeholder service reviews ensure customer expectations continue to be met. In addition, as a 24x7 service team, we engage in a rigorous, ongoing knowledge management and training program to ensure the entire NOC team is up-to-date on all changes made.
Meaningful operational metrics play an under-appreciated role in keeping staff morale high. That’s why we set and evaluate performance objectives on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
We identify the metrics that are most meaningful and applicable to your specific operation, reflecting the size and scale of your operation and the KPIs that measure against your objectives. Metrics like first-call resolution, time to action, mean time to restore, and number of tickets and calls handled provide operational visibility and represent points of pride for accomplishment within the NOC.
INOC combines end-to-end technical and operational expertise into an outstanding service package. They supported a complex optical network connecting multiple data centers with a level of organization and process efficiency that was impressive. Turnup was streamlined, painless, and transitioned smoothly into excellent ongoing 24x7x365 support.
