Help Desk Support

We all agree that information is critical to today's federal and commercial organizations. Information may travel over complex networks stretching around the globe - as voice, data or video from thousands of sources - or contained in vast databases. Wherever the information exists, it must arrive intact, often at real-time speeds, when you need it, and in a form that you can easily use. Assuring that the systems supporting this information transfer work is why your organization may depend on a CSC help desk. We can answer routine user questions or help to troubleshoot system problems.

CSC ensures access to critical information when error is not an option. We understand that your enterprise, and sometimes domains within your enterprise, will define the support services needed to sustain and manage your office automation resources. We can provide a single point of contact for all users, resolving questions immediately and contacting technical personnel to provide onsite services when needed. We can staff a help desk with a specific skill set to support complex systems, or we can provide help desks which utilize commercial products to track calls and responses.

No matter how efficient a network is, we know that there will always be problems with performance. Sometimes, problems stem from user learning curves, sometimes from a power outage. In any case, CSC support services will help your enterprise face the challenges inevitable in a complex IT environment.

What We Offer || Success Stories

What We Offer

Support Desk Staffing
An experienced and well-trained staff are key to effective use of the systems and tools which comprise a help desk. We can provide the support you need 7 days a week, 24 hours a day - or only after normal business hours - and support personnel with the skills you need - whether with standard applications used by your business or with systems designed for you.

Call Receipt and Problem Referral
CSC’s experienced support staff knows when and how to refer a problem for further technical support. Even if you need someone at your site to troubleshoot the problem - we’ll make sure your problem is quickly resolved.

Problem Resolution
Calls are logged as received and may be further classified by type (specific application), based on the caller’s description. We track the status of each call throughout its "life" so we can determine how effectively your call was handled. We prepare periodic reports, analyzing the number of calls handled, resolution timeframe, as well as system availability.

Escalation Procedures
If a problem is not resolved within the required timeframe, it will be escalated according to customer requirements; we will ensure that CSC senior management is aware of the escalation. Where system availability is critical, we ensure that technical personnel are on-call as needed to resolve potential problems.

Success Stories

To make the skies safer and help civilian pilots comply with air safety regulations, the Federal Aviation Administration tapped CSC to create the Direct User Access Terminal Service (DUATS). This open system gives pilots timely weather data, files and validates flights plans, and provides an automated flights planner system. For DUATS, CSC's help desk serves as a single point-of-contact for multiple problems. In this scenario, CSC receives calls from pilots and helps to diagnose problems, whether software or hardware based. Our help desk personnel receive training specific to the DUATS services, so they are able to quickly and efficiently resolve a range of user problems.

And - we even use our Network Management Operations Center (NMOC) to help ourselves. Our NMOC fields calls from CSC employees in diverse locations, answering questions about desktop configurations, application functionality, and network problems.

For the Joint Chiefs of Staff, we provide onsite support at the Pentagon for over 1,500 users. Our help desk is staffed with trained personnel who are able to respond to routine and complex inquiries about application functionality. As needed, a member of our user support team visits the user’s office to resolve problems.
