Challenges

A leading telecom provider in Europe was facing several challenges in maximizing the return on their ServiceNow investment:

  • Undefined Value Metrics: Despite a large-scale deployment of ServiceNow, the provider lacked a clear framework to measure the platform’s success and identify potential areas for improvement.
  • Manual Processes and Operational Inefficiencies: Repeated manual interventions and process inefficiencies hampered their ability to leverage ServiceNow’s full potential, leading to higher operational costs.
  • Customization Overload: A high degree of customization caused delays in ServiceNow upgrades and increased overall maintenance costs, impacting platform agility and adaptability.

Solutions Provided by inMorphis

InMorphis-a ServiceNow-invested company, collaborated with the telecom provider to drive a structured approach focused on optimizing ServiceNow usage, enhancing automation, and embedding self-healing mechanisms to improve customer experience.

1. Curated Value Assessment Framework:

  • Using our proprietary value assessment framework, we conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the provider’s ServiceNow deployment to identify high-impact value drivers and areas needing improvement.
  • Metrics like platform utilization, process efficiency, and customer self-service capabilities were analyzed to craft a tailored roadmap.
2. Targeted Improvement and Automation Strategy:

  • Leveraging insights from our assessment, we devised a custom improvement plan, emphasizing automation and efficiency. Our Generic Automation Framework (GAF) was central to reducing manual interventions and optimizing routine operations.
  • This approach focused on high-impact areas, aligning platform functionalities with core business goals and customer experience improvements.
3. Self-Healing Capabilities for Common Customer Issues:

  • To enhance service reliability, we implemented self-healing mechanisms to automatically resolve recurring issues, reducing the number of incidents that required manual resolution and improving customer satisfaction.
