The launch of the Enterprise Package

This is very exciting!! ServiceNow is providing to you through this package, powerful capabilities to optimize the performance of your IT organization and to maximize process efficiencies – all within the Now Platform.

The Enterprise package will enable ServiceNow Customers to drive greater returns on their investments, faster. Two applications are available as part of the Enterprise package in Quebec.

• Workforce Optimization

Workforce Optimization

The most valuable resource in any business is its people. With so much of the work happening on the ServiceNow platform, we want to give businesses the ability to optimize their workforce so that they can maximize their service performance. Workforce Optimization (WFO) gives managers the ability to monitor demand in real-time, schedule agent work shifts, report on historical performance trends and improve the quality of their team’s work all in one workspace. Here’s a cool little video on Workforce Optimization.

Here are some of the key features

(Refer to ServiceNow docs for more details)

Managing teams from a central location

Schedule your team's work shifts and align agents to handle incidents effectively

Automating employee coaching and training

Assess your team's performance and set coaching plans to improve their skills.

Integrated application data

Drive workforce optimization effectively by managing schedules, shifts, and queues for your teams. You can assess skills, automate agent recommendations based on those skills, and provide mentoring opportunities for employees.

Process Optimization

Process Optimization creates visual business process flows to enable businesses to uncover hidden bottlenecks and inefficiencies. This lets organizations deliver optimal output with every process. ​

The application takes in data from audit trails, allowing in-depth analysis of business processes to improve outcomes. ​

1. Data from underlying tables and audit logs serves as the entry point for this capability.
2. Once the process map is generated, it is easy to see where the bottlenecks are. ​
3. Now, with a single click, the process owner can generate an improvement initiative to address the underlying issue. ​
