Case Study:

How a University Medical Center Achieves Annual Savings of $560K With ServiceNow's IT Budgeting Solution

The Challenge

The University Medical Center was grappling with antiquated processes built on decades of spreadsheets for investment planning. The lack of synergy between their strategic goals and tactical efforts led to a disjointed activity that didn’t align with high-level objectives. This disconnect resulted in strategies that faltered in execution. The Medical Center was also on a quest to understand how a holistic vision could be quickly distributed and interpreted across its business units. They wanted to boost internal collaboration and synchronize executive visioning to speed up goal realization and improve financial performance.

The Solution

Recognizing the need for a mechanism that could enhance the capital planning process, they asked for our help. Leveraging our IT Financial experience, we developed a ServiceNow IT Budgeting solution that integrated seamlessly with existing infrastructure, thereby improving the quality of capital planning activities.

We collaborated with various customer departments to develop an IT Budget and Forecasting solution that considered distinct pain points, challenges, and operational requirements. This solution granted budget owners and stakeholders the capacity to accurately develop budets,, forecast plans, and projections. Because the solution was grounded in verifiable transactional data, it eliminated inefficiencies that were inherent in their former outdated capital planning practices.

The Outcome

With the implementation of ServiceNow’s IT Budgeting solution, budgets were completed in days – not months. Forecast adjustments were completed in hours – not weeks. The solution was directly responsible for enabling the Hospital and its workforce to transition to an enterprise-wide IT Budgeting environment. In addition to streamlining IT budgets, they also achieved tighter controls, greater adaptability, and real-time visibility.
