Story
Materials work at South32 spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Australia. Repetitive desktop work was splitting across regional habits. Operations analysts asked for a shared way to run back-office automation 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. South32 uses it as the system of record for repetitive desktop work, with operations analysts as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
