Business challenges

The primary challenge was managing frequent access changes securely and at scale. Contractors and clients often changed, and each request involved multiple manual steps, increasing the risk of delays and human error. Integrating identity management with the existing ITSM system was another hurdle, as seamless data flow between ServiceDesk Plus and the identity platform was essential to achieving true automation.

Ocean Infinity manages access for a constantly changing mix of employees, clients, contractors, and subcontractors across multiple domains. Earlier, identity provisioning was handled manually, requiring IT teams to create user accounts, assign security groups, and revoke access as roles changed. With 5060 access requests coming in every week, this process became time-consuming and operationally heavy. Since different domains were handled by different technicians, a single user onboarding could take several days, impacting productivity and SLA commitments.

The solution

Ocean Infinity implemented ManageEngine ADManager Plus to automate identity lifecycle management and integrated it with ServiceDesk Plus. Once a service request is approved, ADManager Plus automatically creates user accounts, assigns the appropriate security groups, and enforces security controls such as role-based access and MFA. This ensured consistent access provisioning across domains while eliminating manual intervention. The automation reduced provisioning timelines from several days to a matter of hours.

"Once the ticket is approved in ServiceDesk Plus, ADManager Plus takes over and completes the entire user creation and access assignment process automatically"

Aaron, Infrastructure Architect at Ocean Infinity

"While ADManager Plus itself was easy to deploy, integrating it with ServiceDesk Plus required advanced configuration and coordination. The onboarding team worked closely with Ocean Infinity, addressing integration challenges, accommodating change requests, and staying engaged until final sign-off."

By automating identity provisioning, Ocean Infinity significantly reduced manual effort and improved turnaround times. Business teams benefited from faster access enablement, while IT teams gained greater control, visibility, and consistency across environments. The solution also minimized errors and strengthened security by ensuring that only authorized users received access to critical resources.
