For ServiceNow and service leaders in the DACH region

Take control of service management. Make ServiceNow deliver value.

byNov brings governance, process design and delivery together. We clarify accountability, make decisions transparent and outcomes measurable, and support a stable transition into operations, whether you are implementing, evolving or optimising ServiceNow.

Common Challenges

When service management is in place, but control is missing

ServiceManagementwithout controlOwnershipProcess DriftRun ReadinessCustomisationData Quality
  • Ownership stays unclear between IT, the business and service providers.
  • Processes are configured, but not governed.
  • Customisation grows faster than governance.
  • Data quality blocks reliable transparency.
  • The platform is live, but operations stay unstable.

Whether a new rollout, optimisation or replacement of an existing solution, byNov starts right here, before the next tool project begins.

What byNov does differently

We start with accountability, standards, data and operations, not features

Control before configuration

We clarify ownership, roles and processes before the platform is optimised.

Operating model and delivery

We combine the operating model and governance with standard-aligned ServiceNow delivery, not one without the other.

Operations-ready, not just live

We stay with you through a stable transition into operations, not only up to go-live.

Outcomes over activity

byNov helps design effective governance structures and is accountable for the quality of the agreed deliverables, working transparently and in partnership.

Our Approach

How we bring ServiceNow under control

The byNov model connects governance, processes, platform and operations in one continuous control loop.

Four principles that shape our work

Impact over tool

Start with value, risks and decisions, not with the feature set.

Standard first

Standards are the default. Deviations only as a deliberate, documented decision.

Systemic, not in silos

Organisation, processes, governance, data, integrations and operations thought through together.

Operational readiness considered from the start

Measurability, enablement and adoption are part of the delivery.

What we deliberately do not do

  • Uncontrolled customisation that puts upgrade capability at risk
  • Implementation without clear ownership
  • Platform delivery without measurable outcomes
  • Configuration as a substitute for decisions

Guided by established frameworks such as ITIL, COBIT, ISO 20000 and ISO 27001.

Services

What you gain

Ownership and Governance

Decisions become clear and traceable

Roles, RACI, decision rights and committees so that accountability does not get stuck in the project.

Standardised ITSM processes

Processes that work in practice

Analysis and blueprinting of existing ITSM and service processes, assessed against established frameworks such as ITIL, COBIT, ISO 20000 and ISO 27001, tool-independent and ready for ServiceNow.

Service Experience and Performance

Steer with numbers, not gut feeling

KPI and CSF sets, service reviews, a performance baseline and a prioritised improvement backlog.

Trusted Data Foundation

Data becomes reliable

Ownership, quality and integrations so that KPIs and the CMDB do not just exist, but serve as a reliable basis for control.

Platform Health and Upgrade Capability

Upgrade-capable, not a dead end

Health findings, a tech-debt backlog and release readiness so that customisation does not become a trap.

Packages

A path in stages, from future-state model to stable operations

The packages build on each other and are often delivered as a journey, frequently in waves.
