Enterprise Service Management Is for More Than IT: HR, Facilities, and Finance Use Cases

Enterprise Service Management (ESM) extends IT service management principles—such as automated workflows and service catalogs—to non-IT departments like HR, Facilities, and Finance. Instead of purchasing new software, organizations typically expand their existing IT service desk to streamline cross-departmental processes like employee onboarding and purchase approvals. This expansion transforms the platform from a specialized IT tool into essential, shared enterprise infrastructure that improves efficiency and accountability across the entire organization.
