As a service desk agent, you work on multiple incidents with tricky and long issue descriptions. You want a way to quickly grasp the issue to resolve it sooner. BMC HelixGPT offers the capability to summarize incidents based on the information available in them. Improved incident understanding reduces turnaround time for resolving incidents.

The capability offers the following benefits:

  • Reduced time and effort to understand incident details
  • Improved collaboration amongst multiple stakeholders through a clear understanding of incidents

Scenario

Scenario

Carl, a service desk agent at Apex Global, wants to analyze the Connection failure incident that is assigned to him. The incident has a long description and has multiple activity notes.
It would take him a lot of time to read the description, understand it, and drive it to a resolution. Therefore, he clicks "Summarize incident" within the incident record to view a clear and concise description that incorporates all available details.

If further updates are made to the incident, he clicks 1763111125948-790.png to regenerate a summary that includes all updates.
He uses the summary to understand the customer's issue and drives the resolution.
