The onboarding of A&I core services into ServiceNow is the first of a series of OIT service management teams slated for onboarding. A Service Management Transformation Program has been formed within Digital Business to coordinate the application of IT service management methodology (ITSM) with the surge of service onboardings into the ServiceNow platform.

To date, Digital Business has onboarded Telephony Services, Coda Community Services, Coda End User Services and the support services for Workday and ERP processes. Support for the HCM Transformation is currently being developed in ServiceNow®.  Projects are also in the pipeline to deliver IT Business Management (ITBM) and IT Operations Management (ITOM) processes in ServiceNow.

Service team onboarding is organized into a series of cohorts beginning at 8-week intervals.  OIT service management teams slated to onboard in the next three cohorts following A&I include Digital Learning, AV Services, Departmental Computing Support for Executives and The Administration, and Network Services.
