ServiceNow Projects – More than a Technology Change

Our clients desire to solve a number of issues and improve various business processes as a result of the ServiceNow implementation. In order to achieve these various goals TEAM2 proposes a phased approach in the spirit of “crawl, walk, run”. ServiceNow projects differ from typical IT technology projects in the following ways:

Not just tech – Technical ServiceNow development completion is not the end of a project, but the beginning of the “realization” phase, the phase in which real business benefit is achieved
Change agent – ServiceNow related projects inherently introduce significant change to business processes and/or behavior
Beyond IT – ServiceNow projects frequently involve organization members far beyond the IT group alone
Change tolerance – Careful consideration of organizational “appetite for change” is a vital part of project planning – plans must take into consideration logical groupings of features that will allow for user training and adoption
User adoption – How well new features are organized and users trained can have an impact on not only perception of the system, but on the business value realized; enthusiastic user adoption is a key to business value attainment

Fixed Price Implementation

Given TEAM2’s deep knowledge of the best practices in ServiceNow environments across industries, we have crafted a solution which meets our client’s desired Development profile. Here you will find a description of our Virtual Development Services (VDS) along with our standard support package, TEAM2-Care, which we have bundled together to form every customer’s engagement. VDS provides a flexible but fixed fee engagement based on our client’s expected activities.

This first phase with a fixed fee will concentrate on the establishment of foundational services which may include the following:
