Story
Utilities work at National Grid spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United Kingdom. Employee requests was splitting across regional habits. HR, facilities, and finance ops asked for a shared way to run shared services without freezing local judgment.
ServiceNow (HR Service Delivery) is what they standardized on. ServiceNow is the enterprise workflow platform for IT, employee, and customer service, with a single data model across departments. National Grid uses it as the system of record for employee requests, with HR, facilities, and finance ops as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
