IT Service Management (ITSM) strategies and platforms inherently target IT: it’s a part of the acronym! And, the ITSM platform is the bridge between IT and the organization’s employees. Sure, IT is a key player when it comes to connecting employees to services, but they aren’t the only internal service provider who could benefit from streamlining their activities.

With the growing focus on human capital management, the concept of employee experience has embedded itself into IT service management. The changing global landscape means that employees working from any remote corner of the world expect seamless service delivery irrespective of different channels, time-zones, or even devices.

Today we announced the expansion of our partnership with Microsoft to deliver elevated digital employee experiences that meet people where they are. At Microsoft Ignite 2020, ServiceNow introduced new workflows embedded in Microsoft Teams to improve employee productivity with seamless self-service and faster case resolution. Powered by the Now Platform, the new capabilities also improve agent productivity by enabling them to more effectively collaborate and complete key tasks in Microsoft Teams.

The world is experiencing a seismic shift from the obsolete "business process evolution" to the new "workflow revolution." Companies across industries are facing once-in-a-generation challenges. They are trying to keep their businesses on track and get their people back to work. ServiceNow is committed to helping businesses capitalize on the opportunities of digital transformation to boost agility and resilience in this next normal work environment.

By now, you’ve heard a number of us at ServiceNow talk about the “workflow revolution.” The COVID-19 pandemic has made businesses rethink how they operate, engage employees, and serve customers.
