Our client, a global company with over 50,000 employees worldwide, faced significant challenges in managing their ITSM processes across multiple fragmented systems. The lack of automation resulted in inefficiencies and high operational costs. The client partnered with DSS for ServiceNow® ITSM consulting to overcome these challenges and implement the ServiceNow platform. This case study highlights how DSS successfully configured, customised, and integrated ServiceNow ITSM to streamline the client's ITSM processes and achieve significant cost savings.
