“This strategic implementation not only addressed the existing challenges but laid a foundation for future technological and business advancements.”
A leading global retail client initiated a digital transformation project, focusing on streamlining IT Service Management (ITSM) for enhanced efficiency. The client recognised technology as a key enabler for achieving their ambitious business strategy yet, they faced significant obstacles with their existing ITSM tool including: lack of automation capability, limited communication channels, overly complex integration capability and inefficient operations.
In addition, the existing tool’s outdated user interfaces complicated ticket management, and dependency on VPN connectivity for remote work further effected efficiency. The need for significant investment due to extended support and integration challenges added to the client’s ITSM issues.

Client Testimonial: Successful ITSM Transformation
“The launch of our ServiceNow ITSM project completed successfully in May following a great collaboration with the team in Saros and our ServiceNow implementation partner. This was a complex delivery, requiring a lot of additional discovery and solutioning which required collaboration with a large number of vendors and business stakeholders to ensure we met our project deadlines and deliver the overall solution on target. The team in Saros brought the needed experience and skills in terms of ServiceNow, ITSM and Project Management to get us over the line despite very tight deadlines and a number of challenges. Our experience has been that the Saros team is results driven with a strong sense of ownership and willingness to do what it takes to achieve the business outcome.”
