After countless ServiceNow ITOM deployments, we have condensed our experience in various assets. We use these assets to effectively explain to stakeholder groups what we intend to do and how the organization will benefit.
How we do it
Our holistic approach ensures we involve all stakeholders at the right time and ensure modules are implemented effectively and in the right order of priority.
Engage
Every ITOM project encompasses multiple stakeholder groups. It doesn’t matter which ITOM module of ServiceNow we implement, we will always engage all respective teams and stakeholders like Infrastructure, NOC, SOC, compute, Configuration Management, Business Owners, Application Owners, IT support and more.
Build foundation
After stakeholder engagement, together we build a solid foundation that can serve as a base for the CMDB. For this, we apply the ServiceNow Common Services Data Model (CSDM). Next, the ownership of CIs, services and processes will be defined. We are there to guide you on your entire journey, whether it concerns your virtualized environment, containerized applications, or cloud enterprise and local networks.
Create
Whether it is parsing a load balancer’s configuration file to find the outgoing connections, or to integrate a monitoring tool, nothing will stand our ITOM experts in the way to implement or optimize any ITOM module. Their background in IT and analytical skills will make sure that the solution will both be technically on par and that it will add business value.
Mature
To make sure that the ITOM solution will be future proof, we will continue to guide you on how to mature the ITOM setup. By implementing new ITOM modules, the added value will significantly increase.
Don’t just take our word for it…
Deploying ServiceNow’s ITOM in an already established cloud structure is a risky endeavour. Even if you’re using a known provider, there are always things that you miss, or are difficult to configure properly in detail. The Plat4mation team was an incredibly helpful ally in this procedure, always doing their very best, and helping in digging in our infrastructure when needed. They continuously provided the right solutions and guidance in our deployment that in any other case would have become a titanic effort.

The ITOM consultants at Plat4mation have a broad background in IT infrastructure and Cloud Operations. This makes them a perfect fit for aligning your IT Operations with ServiceNow. Also, applying the approach described above has proven its value at dozens of global organizations across different industries.
IT Operations Management is often done by several tools, like Microsoft’s SCCM is generally used for Configuration Management, Nagios for monitoring and Ansible for orchestration. By applying the ITOM modules of ServiceNow, all such tools will be consolidated in a single pane of glass. Also, there will be a smooth alignment between your IT Operations and IT Service Management (ITSM) and Case Management (CSM) processes.
The readiness is best to compare to the maturity of your current IT organization. The main requirements are that the ITSM and CMDB are well managed and owned accordingly. Not sure if they are? No worries, Plat4mation can help you with that as well.
