This webinar will describe Vodafone’s journey of evolution from Problem Management to Reliability Management, the initiatives launched and future plans. When they looked back a couple of years, the way their problem management process was set up was very reactive, with outdated practices, and we were not fully leveraging our opportunities nor addressing glaring gaps in terms of global reach.
At the start of FY23 the team set about a bold vision to address this and transform themselves into a reliability management practice. The rebranding was not done purely in name but rather to reflect their move beyond the reactive problem space to driving a culture of proactive problem remediation, increased collaboration, and continual learning and improvement – at the same time taking massive strides towards being a truly global function for reactive problem management.
