What is Shift Left?

Adopting the Shift Left strategy enables organizations to resolve incidents more swiftly during the initial phases of support. This method allows Level 1, Level 2, and field support technicians to manage frequent user and device issues directly through the ServiceNow incident interface. By removing the need for privileged access to systems like Active Directory, Microsoft Configuration Manager, LAPS, and MBAM, the rate of first-call resolutions can improve significantly. Instead of passing problems up the support chain, Shift Left provides help desk teams with essential tools to carry out tasks such as resetting passwords and unlocking user accounts right from the incident form. This functionality leads to a considerable rise in the volume of issues diagnosed and resolved on the first call. Additionally, technicians have the advantage of viewing past troubleshooting actions taken for a particular incident, which greatly minimizes the chances of duplicating efforts. Ultimately, this refined approach not only boosts the speed of issue resolution but also enhances the overall performance and productivity of support teams. As a result, organizations can achieve higher customer satisfaction and more effective resource allocation.
