B. Project Purpose, Overview, Scope, and Task PURPOSEOA/OIT provides numerous enterprise services to commonwealth agencies under the Governor’s jurisdiction and has the responsibility to ensure that each service and their respective assets and underlying technologies are being effectively and prudently managed throughout the service useful life. To fulfill this obligation as well as enable OA/OIT to continue to meet the demands of the consumer agencies and ensure the value being provided relative to service utility and warranty is delivered in a cost effective and fiscally responsible manner; OA/OIT must identify, establish, and implement some fundamental ITIL processes, procedures, and governance frameworks around service asset management and configuration management (SACM) and associated ITSM and/or ITIL processes affiliated with service strategy, design, transition, and operations.The purpose of this project is to engage a supplier to facilitate a deliverables based Service Asset & Configuration Management (SACM) workshop with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (CoPA) Information Technology Service Management (ITSM) team. The SACM workshop will review current state, provide further knowledge of the ServiceNow Discovery tool and how it works within in the ServiceNow system, document a Best Practice road-map, and gather requirements for a next step ServiceNow Discovery implementation.OVERVIEWOA plans to implement the Discovery tool within the CoPA ServiceNow system, so Configuration Items (CI’s) can be discovered and tracked in ServiceNow, as applicable. The CoPA ITSM team is requesting an SACM workshop session with the supplier to better understand the Discovery tool and how it works within ServiceNow system. In addition, the workshop will provide recommendations of mapping existing ITSM data model categories, relationships, and data mapping to Discovery’s mapping format. The workshop will include a determination of timeframes and resources required to design and implement the ServiceNow Discovery tool along with the steady-state support required to maintain the ServiceNow Discovery tool.SCOPEThe high level scope includes the following:Review “As-Is” processes and discuss/enhance “To-Be” processes for hardware and software asset managementReview CoPA’s existing Configuration Management Database (CMDB) and associated toolset. Discuss and define future state of CoPA’s CMDB and the methods for population and ongoing discovery of CI’s.Discuss ServiceNow offerings and capabilities related to CMDB and management of Assets / CIs.Discuss how other ITSM processes (Incident Management, Problem Management, Change Management, Catalog Management, and Financial Management) relate to SACM.Facilitate the development of CoPA’s SACM Technical implementation roadmap.Discuss current implementation and service usages, successes, and challenges.TASKSSupplier will facilitate a custom 2-3 day Service Asset and Configuration Management (SACM) workshop with CoPA key stakeholders focused on the key SACM disciplines as they relate to COPA’s ServiceNow environment. The workshop would plan and execute the following tasks:Task 1: Review CoPA’s “As-Is” processes and discuss/develop “To-Be” processes for hardware and software asset managementSupplier to understand defined governance approach for maintaining the quality of the CoPA ServiceNow Database:Review CoPA Unified SACM Process to be implemented, including Scope and ApproachReview CoPA Technical Implementation of the SACM process, including Scope and ApproachIdentify roles and verify training requirements for those roles in the CoPA SACM processb. Deliverable: 1) SACM Technical Implementation & Governance Framework Document and 2) CoPA Staffing, roles, competencies and training requirements documentTask 2: Review CoPA’s existing Configuration Management Database (CMDB) and associated toolset. Discuss and define future state of CoPA’s CMDB and the methods for population and ongoing discovery of CI’s.Supplier will review/validate the CoPA data model for the following:Current ServiceNow CoPA ITSM data model categories, relationships, and data mappingProviding an overview of the Discovery tool in ServiceNowItems that are automatic with ServiceNow DiscoveryItems that are loaded from other products or other integrations into SACM (SMS, SCCM, etc.)Data from Stargate that is currently being populated in CoPA ServiceNow data modelCurrent CoPA multi-tenancy constraints (population of mandatory fields)Other specific contractual requirements that already exist in CoPA ServiceNowProvide actionable recommendations for aligning our CoPA CMDB work effort with a future stateb. Deliverable: Recommendations and best practice example mappings for aligning our current CoPA CMDB work effort with a future state CoPA CMDB & Toolset Assessment Document.Task 3: Discuss ServiceNow offerings and capabilities related to CMDB and Configuration ManagementReview and evaluate ServiceNow capabilities with current COPA configurationCurrent ServiceNow CoPA ITSM data model categories, relationships, and data mapping and make recommendations on how these items should be mapped to the Discovery mapping format.ServiceNow category names (such as IP router, IP switches, etc.) that Discovery uses in both Eureka and Geneva, and identify differences between the two.Provide specific examples of the mapping from the ServiceNow CoPA ITSM data model categories, relationships, and data mapping to the Discovery relationship mapping format.Provide actionable recommendations for mapping existing CI inventory and Discovery CI inventory togetherb. Deliverable: ServiceNow Standard Data Models Document (shall include data models for Eureka and Geneva with actionable recommendations of how CoPA’s ITSM data model can be improved.Task 4: Discuss how other ITSM processes (Incident Management, Problem Management, Change Management, Catalog Management, and Financial Management) relate to SACMReview ServiceNow capabilities for interfacing with SAPApproach being taken by CoPA today for interfacing with SAP.Provide any existing alternative processes and/or give recommendations for improved effectiveness and efficiency of the interface.c.Deliverable: 1) SACM – SAP Interface Document 2) Document recommendations for alternative processes and interface improvements)Task 5: Facilitate the development of CoPA’s SACM Process implementation roadmap.Provide an executable CoPA SACM Process Implementation roadmapPlan a follow-on ServiceNow Discovery ImplementationKey roles and responsibilities for implementationKey assumptionsImplementation schedule including high level activitiesDeliverable: 1) CoPA SACM Process Implementation roadmap 2) Information required to create a follow-on ServiceNow Discovery Implementation Statement of WorkTask 6: Discuss current implementation and service usages, successes, and challenges.Discuss supplier past experiences with other public sector customer ServiceNow SACM implementationsDiscuss CoPA past experiences with prior ServiceNow module implementationsc.Deliverable: Documented lessons learned for future CoPA ServiceNow module implementations.OUTCOMES:Defining/Verifying the goals and objectives of PA’s ITSM Initiative as related to SACM.Gap Analysis between CoPA’s SACM “To-Be” processes and out-of-the-box ServiceNow capabilities.Recommendation and level of effort (LOE) for addressing the GAP during future SACM implementations.Recommended SACM implementation roadmap that establishes clear milestones and, just as importantly, the value each milestone brings to CoPA.KEY ASSUMPTIONS:The “Project”, in the context of this document, is considered by the CoPA Enterprise Project Office to be a small (less than 30-45 day total duration) change initiative. As such, the effort will not require formal EPMO project artifacts for initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing “The Project”.Supplier staff will be located onsite during the scheduled workshop.CoPA believes the total duration of the workshop will be between 30 – 45 days which will include several days of onsite workshop activities. Actual duration of the workshop will be determined in follow-on discussions between the Supplier and CoPA.The Supplier will provide a detailed schedule for the workshop which will include an hourly breakout of the onsite workshop activities and resources required to executed (Supplier and CoPA key stakeholders).Key CoPA stakeholders will be available to participate for the duration of the scheduled workshop.Project deliverables are listed within the aforementioned tasks section of this document.The actual project start date will start after CoPA’s Purchase Order issuance date.The CoPA Unified SACM process will be provided to the supplier as a pre-workshop artifact.The CoPA Target end state document will be provided to the supplier as a pre-workshop artifact.The current CoPA ServiceNow configuration model will be provided to the supplier as a pre-workshop artifact.The Supplier resources proposed for the project will provide three public sector references to CoPA of having planned and executed a similar SACM workshop.Supplier resources proposed for the project cannot be removed from the project without review and authorization by CoPA management.For budget and planning purposes, and to aid vendors with their proposed responses, CoPA has estimated the cost of the project being under $49,500. C. Project Time Estimates / Delivery Schedule CoPA anticipates the project start date being mid April 2016. The actual project start date will be after CoPA’s Purchase Order issuance date. The Supplier will provide a detailed schedule for the workshop listing an hourly breakout of the workshop activities and resources required to execute (Supplier and CoPA key stakeholders).
