A Cloud Sherpas Case Study
Giant Eagle, the Pittsburgh-based retail company, was in the middle of a cloud migration but lacked formal asset inventory and configuration management processes. Its IT team relied on spreadsheets and individual knowledge, and its change management process was inefficient and labor intensive, creating risk for the move. Giant Eagle turned to Cloud Sherpas and ServiceNow to address these challenges.
Cloud Sherpas implemented Phase 1 of ServiceNow for Giant Eagle, including configuration management with Discovery, change management, and custom integrations. The result was a more disciplined change process, greater visibility into assets, and better collaboration and impact analysis. Giant Eagle went live in April 2015, achieved immediate adoption, and reduced the number of tools users needed to manage, while improving communication and proactive incident prevention.
