Client Overview
A major Australian corporation faced critical challenges in migrating its legacy copper-based services to a modern fiber infrastructure. Initially, the company relied on manual Excel sheets to track and manage the migration process. However, this approach was:
- Inefficient & Error-Prone – Manual data entry led to frequent inaccuracies.
- Difficult to Scale – The migration process was cumbersome and time-consuming.
- Lacking Validation & Oversight – An in-house validation tool required significant manual intervention, slowing down the entire process.
Recognizing the need for an automated and scalable solution, the company engaged Acute Professional Services to design and implement a ServiceNow-powered migration strategy.
The Challenge: Overcoming Legacy System Inefficiencies
- Manual Excel-Based Migration – Migration tracking through Excel sheets was inefficient, time-consuming, and prone to data integrity issues.
- Complex Validation Process – An in-house tool designed to validate migration data still required significant manual oversight, reducing efficiency.
- Lack of Process Standardization – Without a centralized, system-driven approach, the migration process lacked uniformity, automation, and scalability.
- The client needed a robust, automated solution that could eliminate manual dependencies, streamline data validation, and enhance operational efficiency.
