| ServiceNow | Legacy | ServiceNow Facilities Service Management | Facility Management | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2018 | 2018 |
In 2018, Alten implemented ServiceNow Facilities Service Management to centralize Facility Management capabilities across its multinational operations. The deployment was managed from a ServiceNow Competency Center within the group CIO organization, aligning the new application with existing IT service management and HR service initiatives across Alten’s four-country footprint and seven main entities.
The ServiceNow Facilities Service Management implementation included configuration of core facilities workflows alongside Core ITSM and Core HR solutions, emphasizing automation, self-service portals, and data analytics. Functional capabilities described in the rollout included service request handling for workplace assets, facilities incident management, and catalog-driven provisioning, implemented to work in concert with broader ITSM product strategy and sprint-based delivery.
Operational coverage was defined at the group level, with the Competency Center responsible for rollout governance, backlog prioritization, and agile sprint planning across internal technology teams and key user communities. The program relied on analytics from the IM IT landscape to inform ITSM data analysis and decision-making, and required coordination with Finance, HR, and Business Management stakeholders to validate requirements and acceptance criteria.
Governance and operating model changes were formalized through a CoE style ServiceNow Competency Center, including hierarchical management of an international multifunctional team, budget oversight for run and project activities, and supplier relationship oversight where applicable. The narrative positions Alten ServiceNow Facilities Service Management Facility Management as a centralized platform supporting facilities operations, ITSM integration, and business user self-service under an enterprise governance framework.
