Syncing with ServiceNow: How to reduce MTTR by helping people get out of their own way

IT experiences regular waves of innovation, most recently with generative AI. Meanwhile, IT’s core imperatives remain constant. Year after year, Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) research (www.servicenow...) consistently ranks reducing the frequency, duration, and impact of incidents and outages as the top operational objective for IT. That goal holds true for organizations of all sizes across industries globally.
The best-case scenario is to predict and prevent outages before they happen. When directly asked, “If you could choose one thing to do really well, what would have the biggest positive impact?” 43% of IT leaders chose “proactive response to incidents before they impact users,” according to a global EMA survey.
The next best scenario is to significantly reduce MTTR (www.servicenow...) ,1 regardless of whether the “R” stands for “repair,” “respond,” “restore,” or “revive.” That effort begins with identifying and attacking the most significant influencers on time, the first “T” in MTTR.
