the challenge

Overcoming resource constraints and technical complexity

For any financial institution, operational efficiency and agile response to market changes are imperatives. The client faced this challenge head-on by committing to an extensive ServiceNow implementation aimed at automating its IT and enterprise service management processes. The client already had a relationship with ServiceNow but needed additional expertise and workforce to bring its ambitious project to life.

While the client had already begun to make strides in automating its IT service management, it faced significant hurdles in terms of resources and technical capability. Specifically, the client struggled with issues surrounding custom coding, complex configurations, and ServiceNow module support. These challenges began to stall progress, risking delays to critical service delivery and costing the organization both time and money.

THE SOLUTION

Tailored staff augmentation services for ServiceNow success

Upon assessing the client’s specific needs and challenges, Cask proposed a staff augmentation strategy to propel the client’s ServiceNow capabilities to the next level. Cask deployed a multidisciplinary team, including a ServiceNow platform architect, two ServiceNow platform engineers, and a vendor project manager, committed to work on the project for 12 successive months.

  • Expertise on demand: Cask’s Platform Architect addressed intricate custom coding and complex configurations that were beyond ServiceNow Support.
  • Performance and reliability: Weekly log reviews, environmental performance assessments, and planning were conducted to ensure a smooth operation.
  • Strategic upgrade support: Assistance was provided to help transition nonproduction applications to a live production state.
  • Knowledge transfer: Cask offered training to the client’s team, enriching its foundational understanding of the ServiceNow platform.
  • Monitoring and reporting: Proactive monitoring and alerting were established, along with weekly status and burndown reports from the vendor project manager.

Cask’s efforts enabled the client to successfully manage ServiceNow applications post-implementation, providing the client with the skills and know-how to maintain and even improve its operations.
