Our approach to ServiceNow

We start by understanding your work and systems, then move things forward.

ServiceNow is a platform that connects work across departments on shared systems. That is why adopting it or expanding its use takes more than knowing its functions. It takes understanding the background of your work, the role of each department, and how your existing systems fit together. We understand your current environment and circumstances first, then think with you and move things forward, from a first implementation to the next stage of use.

  • Business background

    We check how your current setup came about and the practical realities of running it.

  • Roles of each department

    We sort out who is responsible for what, and where decisions are made.

  • Connections with existing systems

    We take into account the roles of ERP and other systems, and how information is held.

Our scope

From a first implementation to the next stage of use.

You can ask us for only the part you need. We can also take on everything in one engagement, from selecting products and licenses to requirements definition, implementation, testing, go live, and ongoing operation and maintenance.

What we can take on in one engagement

  1. License sales
  2. Proposals based on your RFP
  3. Requirements definition
  4. Design
  5. Implementation
  6. Testing
  7. Go live
  8. Operation and maintenance

New implementation

Proposals based on your RFP, and designing how to make it work

We organize the work and requirements you want to support, and think through how to combine standard functions, additional development, and integration with other systems. We also propose the product and license structure, with operation after launch in mind.

What we do

  • Proposals for new implementation based on your RFP
  • Organizing work and requirements, and designing how to make it work
  • Selecting products and licenses, and license sales

Expanding use

Improving your current environment and extending it to more departments and sites

After meeting each department's requests over the years, apps and integrations multiply and the impact of changes becomes hard to judge. We check how your current setup came about and set out the order of improvement and rollout. We can also start from an environment another company implemented.

What we do

  • Usage review of your current environment, and an improvement plan
  • Sorting out customizations, data, permissions, and integrations
  • Rollout to other departments, sites, and group companies

Where to expand next, for example

  • Internal IT inquiries and requests
  • HR procedures
  • IT assets and vulnerability management
  • System operations and monitoring
  • Customer inquiries
  • Business app development

Using internal knowledge

Putting internal knowledge to work with EmployeeWorks

We connect information spread across your company, such as ServiceNow knowledge and SharePoint, so that the right people can use it at the right moment. People can trace not only the answer but also its background, and move on to decisions and procedures.

What we do

  • Sorting out where it will be used, and which information and systems to connect
  • Checking who can see what, and how information is managed
  • Evaluating and improving search and answers, and supporting use after launch

Using AI

Putting AI agents to work in your business, and improving them

Gathering information, checking conditions, moving on to the next step. We look at the whole flow of work and design what AI handles and where people make the decisions. We check how things are going while it runs, and keep improving in operation.

What we do

  • Sorting out the target work and designing what AI will handle
  • Connecting data, workflows, and other systems
  • Testing under real business conditions, and improving while it runs

Support for internal and joint development

So that your team can keep developing and improving, we combine lectures, reviews of what you build, and joint development. We also attend your meetings with resellers and with ServiceNow. We take this on from three months, for example 0.2 person months a month for three months.

Our own products that complement ServiceNow

For areas where ServiceNow is not strong, or requirements that become costly with more licenses, such as PDF output and order management, we use solutions we built ourselves. We propose improvements starting from a review of your whole system, including ERP (GRANDIT) and AWS.

We give you an estimate of duration and cost after checking the scope and your team setup.

Our process

From understanding your work to systems you use every day.

The same team sees it through, from requirements definition to implementation, testing, go live, and ongoing operation and maintenance.

The same service used on several devices
  1. Checking where you are and why

    We hear about the functions, settings, business flows, roles of each department, and connected systems you have now, and sort out issues and assumptions.

  2. Deciding requirements and how to make it work

    We separate what standard functions can cover from what needs building, and set requirements and priorities while checking screens with you.

  3. Implementation and testing

    Along with implementation, we test repeatedly under real business conditions so that the people who use it can work without hesitation.

  4. Go live and adoption

    We support migration and launch, and prepare procedures and help desk responses so that it keeps being used on the front line.

  5. Operation, maintenance, and the next stage

    Based on feedback and how operations go, we keep improving and preparing for version upgrades, and think about the next stage of use with you.

Why SYSLABO

Why clients choose SYSLABO

01

We use it in our own work and keep verifying it.

SYSLABO has adopted ServiceNow itself, and develops its internal business systems in house. Using EmployeeWorks for knowledge and testing Build Agent and AI Agent are part of that practice.

We bring what we have learned as both developers and users into our proposals. Taking into account how your work and organization differ from ours, we think concretely about what to adopt, what to verify, and how to expand its use.

02

We design how to make it work, including your business and the systems around it.

Expanding the use of ServiceNow requires understanding the roles your existing systems play, how information is held, and how responsibilities are shared between departments. We check how your current setup came about and the realities of running it, and sort out what needs to change.

Drawing on our development experience in business systems, ERP, cloud, and AI, we consider a structure that includes ServiceNow and the systems around it. With everything from product and license selection to implementation and operation in view, we propose a way to make it work that builds on the systems you have developed.

03

We build your team's ability to keep improving, together with you.

While working on real tasks together, we share the reasons behind designs and the basis for decisions. Through lectures, reviews of deliverables, and joint development, we create a way of working that leaves knowledge and experience your team can use in the next development and operation.

We make clear which parts your team handles and where SYSLABO provides expertise, and we also support coordination among business departments, IT, and other partners involved. While moving the current project forward, we build a team that can take on the next improvement.

Frequently asked questions

Q1Can we buy only the licenses?

Yes, you can come to us for licenses alone. We propose ServiceNow products and sell licenses. We hear about the work, the people who will use it, and how you plan to expand, and propose the products and license structure you need. If you later need help with development or operations, the same team takes it on.

Q2Can you work on an environment another company implemented?

Yes. We can start from an environment another company implemented, or from settings made by someone who has since moved on. We first check the functions, settings, and business flows you use today, then propose an improvement plan and the order to work in.

Q3What is the minimum period for support for internal and joint development?

We take it on from three months. One example is 0.2 person months a month for three months, aiming to have your team developing within that time. We decide how often to meet and how long to continue together with you, based on your team's situation.

Q4Can we talk to you before we have an RFP?

Yes. We can start with organizing the work you want to support and your requirements. We also make proposals for new implementation based on your RFP.
