SPM Deployment on-Prem ServiceNow

[AliYassen2020]

Hi,

We are trying to enable and deploy SPM Module on existing on-prem ServiceNow instance with version Washington DC, So is there any changes on System configurations or network configurations which will be applied by deployment/enabling SPM Modules on current Instance?

Thank you In Advance

Hi @AliYassen2020 ,

I don't think there would be any fundamental underlying system configurations need to be changed in the platform beyond normal plugin activation and typical module setup and configuration.

Also,  the network configurations generally remain unaffected by the module activation itself.

Hi @AliYassen2020 ,

Enabling the SPM module in an on-premise ServiceNow instance (Washington DC release) may require some additional system, configuration, or network considerations....SPM was formerly part of IT Business Management. It’s now a standalone/packaged solution that includes modules like Strategic Planning, Scenario Planning, Investment Funding, etc....There is no such document mention about this but, as per my understanding you can check below points...

Make sure you have the correct SPM plugins enabled. Some capabilities may be optional or require additional licensing....

SPM involves dashboards, scenario planning, portfolio visualizations etc, which may put additional load on the instance: CPU, memory, disk, database. Ensure your hardware (app & DB servers) can support it.

SPM introduces new tables, relations, workspace UI etc. Check that your instance schema has room & no naming conflicts, and customizations won't interfere.

You’ll need to assign the appropriate SPM roles. Existing roles might need extension. Also check ACLs for new SPM tables.

SPM often expects integration with e.g Project Portfolio Management, demand, financial data etc. If you have external systems feeding data (financials, cost, investments), confirm network access, data sources, possibly ETL or integration tasks...
