"Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up."

-A.A. Milne

 

Bring the power of ServiceNow to contracts, assets, and configuration items. To better organize contracts, the Contract Management application enables you to associate a contract with specific assets or configuration items. Creating this link can clarify what a contract covers and allow you to run detailed reports. For example, create a contract for ongoing maintenance of enterprise software.

 

Contracts are often written for:

  • leases
  • warranties
  • maintenance
  • service
