解説

問 51

  • Incorrectア

    It lists only “a”, but a — “information on the components related to the IT service can be checked at any time” — is an effect of configuration management handled by the configuration management database (CMDB), not an effect of turning past incidents into a FAQ. Since a is inappropriate, this option is wrong.

  • Incorrectイ

    It lists “a” and “b”, but a is an effect of configuration management (CMDB) and is inappropriate, while b — “checking the work history of candidate staff and drawing up a staffing plan” — belongs to human-resource and staffing management and is unrelated to a FAQ. Neither is an effect of turning incidents into a FAQ, so this option is wrong.

  • Incorrectウ

    In addition to the correct c, it also includes a, but a — checking component information — is an effect of configuration management (CMDB), not an improvement brought about by turning past incidents into a FAQ. Because it includes the extraneous a, this option is wrong.

  • エ

    正解 A FAQ is a compilation and accumulation of past incidents (inquiries and troubles from users) together with how they were handled. If service desk staff or users refer to it, they can answer common inquiries on the spot, so the proportion of cases resolved at the first response without escalation (handing the matter over to higher-level support) — that is, the first-response rate — increases. Therefore only c is an improvement that can be expected from turning incidents into a FAQ, and the correct answer is “エ”, which lists only “c”.

ここがポイント
  • A FAQ (a collection of frequently asked questions) is a knowledge base that accumulates past incidents and inquiries together with their answers, and it helps raise the service desk's first-response rate and make inquiry handling more efficient.
  • Checking component information belongs to configuration management (CMDB), and staffing belongs to human-resource management; do not confuse these with the effect of creating a FAQ.
