Operational Technology Manager is available from the ServiceNow Store and includes integrations with the ServiceNow AI Platform and Industrial Workspace to manage OT devices, networks, and related CMDB configurations.

## Key Features Introduced

* **Industrial Workspace Enhancements:** New About Industrial Workspace page to review installed OT applications and versions; improved search capabilities to include CMDB records.
* **Device Management Improvements:** Ability to identify virtual OT devices, create remediation tasks directly from import validations, and view device-to-device connections with detailed information such as ports and protocols.
* **Operational Technology Visibility Dashboard:** Provides comprehensive tracking of OT data across sites with added site filtering and a Dashboard Library for easy access.
* **CMDB OT Class Model Updates:** Expanded references and related lists for OT devices supporting firmware, software instances, network connections, backup management, and new device types including industrial printers.
* **Automated IT to OT Conversion:** Use CMDB groups to convert and contextualize IT configuration items as OT devices, with limits on bulk processing and enhanced scheduling capabilities.
* **Pre-import OT Worksheet Entry Review (POWER) Tool:** Supports importing OT device data from Excel spreadsheets with validation roles, firmware record creation, and integration with Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Excel.
* **Enhanced Access Control for OT:** Introduces data filters and deny-unless ACL rules to strengthen OT system security.
* **Operational Technology Network Map:** Visualize subnets and OT devices per site within the Industrial Workspace.
* **ServiceNow AI Platform Licensing Tiers:** Foundation, Advanced, and Prime tiers offer graduated AI capabilities including generative AI skills and autonomous workflows tailored to customer needs.
* **Now LLM Service Updates:** Introduction of new Gemma 4 model and phased deprecation of older models, with third-party LLM becoming the default for new AI assets.

## Important Changes

* Removal of Manufacturer and Model Number fields from OT device views to streamline data presentation.
* Renaming of menu items and features such as Automated IT OT Bulk Conversion to Automated IT OT Bulk Contextualization for clarity.
* Introduction of granular admin roles allowing more precise administrative control without full admin privileges.
* Changes to related lists and tabs, such as renaming OT Subnets to OT Subnet Mappings and consolidation of OT device details into CMDB class form views.
* Limits on bulk contextualization processes, including maximum records per job and CMDB group constraints.
* Removal of "New" buttons for users with read-only access on certain related lists to maintain data integrity.

## Deprecations and Removals

* Deprecation of Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Excel staging tables and preparation for future removal of Service Graph Connector for Microsoft Defender for IoT (On-premises Management Console).
* OT Manager dashboard no longer available in the Industrial Workspace from Yokohama onwards; replaced by the Operational Technology Visibility dashboard.
* Now LLM Service is no longer default for new/inactive AI assets; existing configurations remain functional but new developments should use alternative models.

## Upgrade Considerations

* Review and complete pre- and post-upgrade tasks to ensure smooth transition, especially around new security controls and data model changes.
* Ensure roles and permissions account for new granular admin roles and enhanced access control features.
* Adjust existing workflows and integrations to accommodate renamed features and deprecated components.
* Validate bulk contextualization jobs against new limits to avoid processing delays.

## Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers

* Enhanced visibility and control over OT device data and network topology improve operational insights and troubleshooting capabilities.
* Improved security posture with Enhanced Access Control safeguards OT data and access.
* Streamlined data import and remediation processes reduce manual effort and improve data accuracy.
* Flexible AI capabilities through tiered licensing help tailor OT management intelligence to organizational needs.
* Refined CMDB integration supports better asset management and aligns IT and OT asset data for holistic infrastructure management.
