Hanna,
We used to be in house and then went to hybrid (after 5pm is outsourced). =
Three years ago, we have outsourced the operation and now 24/7/365. We wor=
k closely with the vendor daily and also internal staff to ensure the quali=
ty provided is at the level we expect. We have 8 campuses and a very large=
number of users (50K) to support. Below is the number of calls after hou=
rs for the first 5 months of this year and not including chats which is als=
o 24/7 and self-service tickets. We are in summer break since early May. =
Email me if you have questions. Wendy

Subject: Extended or 24/7 IT Help Desk Hours
There has recently been a major push for our IT Help Desk to extend our hou=
rs beyond being open 12 hours a day during the week and 4 hours a day over =
the weekend and to possibly go with 24/7 support. I am currently the only f=
ull time employee at the Help Desk with about 12 student employees.
Are there any schools that have a 24/7 IT Help Desk? If so, is it outsource=
d or managed internally? If you manage your Help Desk internally, what are =
your staffing needs?
Thanks,
Hannah Cox
Help Desk Manager
