Challenge

The situation

IT, OT, and facilities ran disconnected service stacks. CMDB data conflicted across domains. Workflows crossed domains but data didn't.

Approach

How we delivered

  1. 01 Unified CMDB + workflow data on ServiceNow with a federated model.
  2. 02 Automated key cross-domain workflows (plant incident → IT dispatch → facilities).
  3. 03 Integrated with Datasphere and Fabric for cross-enterprise reporting.

Architecture

Solution architecture

ServiceNow as the service graph. Discovery across IT + OT + facilities. Integrations to SAP Datasphere, Microsoft Fabric, and Snowflake. Workflow automation via ServiceNow Flow Designer.
