In 2019, the health system then known as Spectrum Health was in the process of replacing a legacy enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Its information technology service management (ITSM) solution also needed modernization. Recognizing an opportunity to not only update technology but to transform the employee experience, the company enlisted KPMG to help envision and execute an ambitious future state. Four years, two mergers, one name change, and six key initiatives later, what is now known as Corewell Health is leading the industry in proving ServiceNow’s capabilities as a robust enterprise platform that can be used to transform back-office operations and engage employees.
Client transformation journey
Something that really differentiates KPMG is their breadth of expertise. I can’t believe how wide they go and how deep they go. They look at issues not only from a technical perspective, but also in terms of the business challenges you’re trying to solve for. There’s a lot of value in that.

VO When Corewell Health set out to transform IT and HR service delivery, technology was a key consideration – but it wasn’t the end goal. | B-ROLL |
BURT SMITH - Speaker 4 (00:31): What we firmly believed was the transformation was not about technology. It was about the experience for the customer. That's really what we wanted is change. | BURT SMITH ON CAMERA INTERCUT WITH B-ROLL CAPTION: |
BURT SMITH …automation is a tremendously important part of what we are doing with the platform. In our catalog today we have over 70,000 items that people can order… Something that could have taken days or possibly even weeks will be fulfilled within hours. It is getting our people to productive much much faster. And KPMG was actually a very integral partner in us doing this. | BURT SMITH ON CAMERA INTERCUT WITH B-ROLL

BURT SMITH: So have a good plan. But then also hire a good guide. … something that really differentiated KPMG was the breadth of their understanding. I can't believe how wide they go and how deep they go. There was nothing that I could bring up that they didn't understand the question but they also looked at it from the business problem that I was trying to solve perspective. Just having that relationship with individuals you feel like you're walking a path with family and friends and you relate that way. And I think there's a huge amount of value to that. | BURT SMITH ON CAMERA INTERCUT WITH B-ROLL

| Technology transforms processes. KPMG. Make the Difference. |
KPMG has helped high-profile healthcare organizations leverage the ServiceNow platform to transform service management capabilities. Our deep knowledge of the healthcare industry and the ServiceNow platform was a major factor in helping Corewell Health accomplish its goals and bringing the full potential of ServiceNow as a healthcare enterprise service management solution to life.
Transforming ITSM; IT asset management (ITAM); IT governance, risk, and compliance (ITGRC); and HR processes requires a well-defined vision and carefully crafted roadmap. KPMG Powered Enterprise | IT and Powered HR solutions helped us quickly roll out established processes and preconfigured capabilities to help accelerate transformation, while allowing for the kind of customization that aligned to Corewell Health’s business goals.
KPMG helped to define standardized processes across IT, including ITSM, hardware and software asset management, and ITGRC. Our team developed use cases for internal audit, policy and compliance, and risk management processes; worked with Corewell Health to develop an HR operating model; and defined a self-service solution center. In addition to developing processes, KPMG helped to enable them within ServiceNow:
KPMG helped maintain a focus on organizational change management, strategically socializing solutions, and developing and launching cohesive campaigns.
Training was critical to helping ensure Corewell Health team members embraced the new platform. KPMG utilized a variety of spotlight and deep-dive training sessions, role-based online training courses, knowledge articles, podcasts with project leaders, and ongoing project updates. Efforts like these led to widespread adoption and effective use of the platform’s full capabilities.
KPMG and ServiceNow have been collaborating on how to meet the needs of today’s healthcare systems through a single platform that serves as a strong foundation for digital automations, operations, and workflows. Corewell Health is one example of KPMG and ServiceNow’s ability to create an enterprise-wide service management solution. KPMG is proud of the work we’re doing with ServiceNow and of being named the 2023 ServiceNow Worldwide Transformation and Healthcare Partner of the Year.
Providing smooth experiences day to day as well as at the moments that matter (for example, when easy access to benefits can ease a stressful situation) is an important way to build and maintain employee engagement.
