METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EFFICIENT TRANSITION OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS
First Claim
1. A processor-implemented method, for transition of Information Technology (IT) operations comprising:
- identifying, via one or more issues which occur during the transition of IT operations from service provider to another service provider;
identifying, one or more heavy hitter issues from the one or more issues, wherein the one or more heavy hitter issues are issues which cover a maximum workload volume of IT operations;
identifying, risk associated with the one or more issues, by determining severity of the one or more issues, wherein the severity of the one or more issues is based on the instability caused by the issue or the penalties associated with the issues;
identifying, one or more similar issue communities, wherein the one or more similar issue communities are determined by computing a similarity coefficient and constructing an issue similarity graph;
identifying, an optimal team size of resolvers, wherein the optimal team size is determined by profiling type of activities performed by the resolvers; and
implementing, a transition plan wherein the transition plan is derived by analyzing identified heavy hitter issues, risk associated with the one or more issues, one or more similar issue communities and optimal team size of resolvers for transition of IT services.

Abstract
This disclosure relates generally to computing devices, and more particularly to transition of IT operations. In one embodiment, a method and system is provided for generating an efficient transition plan for IT operations while addressing aspects such as coverage, risk, time, and cost. The IT operations are modeled through graphs and use well-defined problems in graph theory to build solutions. Heavy hitter issues are identified to maximize coverage. To minimize risk, severity of an issue is determined, wherein the severity is based on the instability caused or penalties associated with the issue. Further, transition time is minimized by finding issue-communities for parallel transition by finding maximum cliques. Yet further, the bin-packing algorithm is used to optimize the teams of resolvers and thus minimize cost. Finally, a transition plan is generated by systematically identifying issue communities for transition using the minimum hitting set and minimum vertex cover problem.
