Their user-base consists of corporate employees, across multiple business units, in various locations around the world. At a minimum, users from each business unit (Take2, 2K, RockStar, etc.) would see segmented branding, catalog of services, and knowledge base.
We identified 3 groups - Requestors, Fulfiller,s and Approvers. Within the requestor group, there were 2 sub-groups, the general enterprise user and the help desk user. The general enterprise requestor was identified as the primary consumer of the digital workplace. The fulfiller and approver journeys were secondary priorities and considered largely out of scope.

I led the team in conducting a series of on-site workshops to educate and facilitate content creation exercises utilizing the new platform and administration constraints.
We took an e-commerce approach with the stakeholders acting as suppliers, defining their own service offerings to be included on the portal.
We identified multiple internal tools that will either require integration or conversion to ServiceNow including SCCM, Confluence, Arcade, Office Forms, and Demisto.
In addition to the service catalog, I guided them through Knowledge Base, knowledge article, and taxonomy exercises. The knowledge articles encourage users to help themselves whenever possible rather than submitting service requests.
Based on data gathered from these workshops, I created a recommended hierarchical taxonomy for their catalog of services and a separate taxonomy for their knowledge base.
