Show full answer Show less ## Key Features in Brazil * **SPM MCP Server:** Enables connection of any MCP-compatible AI assistant to ServiceNow, allowing users to query Strategic Portfolio Management data using natural language without opening the ServiceNow application. The server operates as a standalone application managed via the MCP Server Console. * **Goal Tools:** Retrieve goals filtered by owner, department, or strategy, and generate AI-powered insights by analyzing historical data and trends. * **Portfolio Tools:** Access portfolio plans with resource allocation and timelines, and generate insights highlighting at-risk projects, delays, and dependencies for better decision-making. * **Project Tools:** Query project metadata including ownership, deadlines, and budgets; generate AI-driven reports and risk assessments; create Red, Amber, Green (RAG) status reports covering resources, cost, schedule, and scope; and identify RIDAC risks as AI drafts saved directly to the risk table. ## Changes and Enhancements * **Role-based Tool Access:** Tools are now controlled by user roles, ensuring only authorized users can run specific MCP SPM server tools. The MCP Server Console enforces these access controls. * **Tool Annotations:** Tools include annotations such as title, read-only hints, and destructive hints according to MCP specifications. These help AI assistants apply correct permission policies, preventing read-only tools from being mistakenly treated as destructive. Administrators can configure these annotations in the MCP Server Console. ## Activation and Requirements To activate MCP for Strategic Portfolio Management in Brazil, customers must request and install it from the ServiceNow Store. There are no new additional requirements, browser requirements, accessibility, or localization changes noted in this release. ## Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers * Query SPM data and generate actionable insights using natural language through AI assistants without needing to access the ServiceNow UI. * Improve strategic decision-making with AI-powered analysis of goals, portfolios, and projects. * Streamline risk management by automatically identifying and saving project risks as AI drafts for prompt attention by project managers. * Enhance security and compliance by controlling tool access based on user roles and clarifying tool permissions through annotations.
