Obviously, the ''[[Glossary#M|module]]'' also allows you to better manage processes in load to a modern Service Desk or Help Desk. Especially, in conjunction with the OCE (Service Level Management) complementary ''[[Glossary#M|module]]'', the ''[[Glossary#M|module]]'' provides to orient immediately the operators of Service Desk or Help Desk showing them the information of the tickets ranked for service levels and notifying, with configurable automatic rules, urgent activities. In this way, the Service Desk or Help Desk, and therefore also the IT, is able to operate in a truly aligned with business priorities.

Core modules

This section illustrates the core modules of itmSUITE®.

SM - Service Desk and Service Management

This is one of the basic modules of itmSUITE® which then can be activated autonomously.

It includes a powerful workflow engine that allows freely configurable to support the execution of the processes of IT Service Management. SM also makes available the functionality needed to operate a modern Service Desk or Help Desk, inspired by the best practices and standards of service management, such as ITIL® and ISO/IEC 20000.

For this module, various pre-configured processes that speed up and simplify process activation in line with the best practice and standards are available. These include:

The configurable workflow engine is almost unlimited and makes this form able to support other processes also outside the IT field, as processes of sale or purchase.

Obviously, the module also allows you to better manage processes in load to a modern Service Desk or Help Desk. Especially, in conjunction with the OCE (Service Level Management) complementary module, the module provides to orient immediately the operators of Service Desk or Help Desk showing them the information of the tickets ranked for service levels and notifying, with configurable automatic rules, urgent activities. In this way, the Service Desk or Help Desk, and therefore also the IT, is able to operate in a truly aligned with business priorities.

This module is perfectly integrated with the PM (Project and Portfolio Management) module and numerous other complementary modules.

Together they form a comprehensive and powerful automation tool for IT management (services and projects), key elements of the information system of a service provider and, especially, of its Service Desk or Help Desk.

For information on how to configure the SM module refer to SM - Service Desk and Service Management configuration.

For information on how to use SM module features refert to SM - Service Desk and Service Management use.

PM - Project and Portfolio Management

This is one of the core modules of itmSUITE® and as such can be activated autonomously. It supports the execution and maturation of management and project processes (Project Management) and project portfolios (Portfolio Management) in line with recognised best practice (eg. PMBoK® or PRINCE2®).

This module is perfectly integrated with the SM (Service Desk and Service Management) module and numerous other complementary module.

Together they form a comprehensive and powerful automation tool for IT management (services and projects), key elements for the IT system of a service provider.

DE - Discovery Engine

This core module works through agents that can be deployed automatically on Unix, Linux or Windows and which make it possible to explore the features of hardware, basic software and application software (including custom)  by creating "finger print".

Based on the OCS NG open source product the solution has been enhanced with the ability to explore relationships among software and software. The module has a graphic interface so that the information gathered can be consulted and used autonomously.

Thanks to the related RE (Reconciliation Engine) module, it is possible to use the system to souerpply the CMS module of itmSUITE®; in other words to automatically supply the Configuration System with the aim of populating or checking and controlling the information on it.
