Prove Now Assist value

[Janke Pluijgers]

Hi, 

I'm posting here hoping to connect with some other companies on how you prove out the value of Now Assist prior to committing to the license cost and implementing in production. 

We currently have an evaluation instance (almost) ready for our users to start playing around, but I'm trying to put together some numbers to show to our leadership the value that Now Assist will bring. 

If anyone has experience of compiling this data, I'd be very interested in understanding the metrics you used to prove out the value in a sub-prod environment.

Thanks in advance.

You must have same thought on this but here are my 2 Cents

(1) Incident Summarization- Volume of Tickets going to L2 , L3 Support Group.

Spoiler

Assuming = 100 Incident as a No with Average 10 Work-notes.

To read and Understand the all work-notes for 1 Incident Manually - Best i take 3 mins (m very aggressive here it will take more)

So total time for 100 Incidents=300 Mins

if I use Summarization feature of Now Assist - Reading & Understanding will Take 1 min.

So total time for 100 Incidents=100 Mins

So 2x Time Saving is done with a no which i took.

Same Maths Can be applied on Chat Summarization, Incident Resolution Notes Generation, KB Generation etc.

Thanks Rahul, that's very helpful. 

We were, indeed, thinking along those lines as well.

To Start With Same Maths Can be Applied for All Use Cases which you are thinking of . Here is the Use case List which Service Now Supports.

Hope This Helps.

Rahul is spot on with the math, we did a high level business case first but then refined it down to cover the different use case, similar to Rahul's math.

- Incident Summarization, Resolution Notes Generation, Chat Summarization and Knowledge Generation.

For L2/L3 Incidents with more than one re-assignment we double the time saving as looking at the data with re-assignments there are more work notes and hand-offs between teams, so assume double time savings with Incident Summarization.

For Knowledge Generation, use average of new KBs L1 creates annually and assume 50% could be auto generated from the Incident and time saving of one hour per KB.

As ServiceNow extends NOW Assist into other ITSM applications, at this point we documented those as unquantified benefits.

We're seeing similar value with NOW Creator, it started with Text-To-Code, but now we also have access to Text-To-Flow, Text-To-App as ServiceNow continues to add more features for the same product which should be considered as part of the business case as more features will continue to be rolled out for NOW Creator, NOW Assist...

Exciting times to see GenAI capabilities in the ServiceNow platform 😀
