The customer profile

The customer is a global pharmaceutical company with operations across more than forty countries and approximately seventy thousand employees. The customer's ServiceNow estate spans ServiceNow IT Service Management, ServiceNow IT Operations Management, ServiceNow IT Asset Management, ServiceNow HR Service Delivery, and the broader ServiceNow product framework, with material ServiceNow framework across the customer's broader pharmaceutical technology framework.

The customer's ServiceNow framework anchored the broader ServiceNow framework against the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow framework at the upper customer scale, with material commercial sensitivity to the ServiceNow renewal framework uplift across the contracted ServiceNow renewal cycle.

The opening publisher quote

ServiceNow's opening ServiceNow renewal framework quote anchored the broader ServiceNow framework at the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow renewal framework with substantial ServiceNow renewal uplift across the broader ServiceNow framework.

The opening ServiceNow renewal framework included substantial ServiceNow uplift framework escalation across the customer's ServiceNow utilization framework, with the publisher anchoring the ServiceNow framework against the broader ServiceNow trajectory rather than the customer's actual ServiceNow utilization framework.

The Redress approach

Redress anchored the ServiceNow framework against the customer's actual ServiceNow utilization framework rather than the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow framework. The framework segmented the ServiceNow framework across the customer's actual ServiceNow utilization framework, the customer's actual ServiceNow user framework, the customer's actual ServiceNow product framework, and the customer's actual ServiceNow renewal framework.

Redress applied a ServiceNow uplift deflection framework against the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow uplift framework, with the cumulative effect that the ServiceNow renewal framework matched the customer's actual ServiceNow utilization framework rather than the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow uplift framework.

The buyer side moves

Redress applied a ten move framework:

  1. Anchor utilization. Anchor the ServiceNow framework against the customer's actual ServiceNow utilization framework.
  2. Deflect uplift. Deflect the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow uplift framework.
  3. Run across populations. Run the ServiceNow framework across the four principal ServiceNow user populations.
  4. Negotiate user framework. Negotiate the ServiceNow user framework against the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow user framework.
  5. Build competitive posture. Build a credible competitive posture.
  6. Run the audit. Run the broader ServiceNow audit framework.
  7. Product negotiation. Negotiate the ServiceNow product framework.
  8. Utilization framework. Run the ServiceNow utilization framework.
  9. Zero percent uplift. Lock in zero percent uplift across the contracted ServiceNow renewal framework.
  10. Vendor management posture. Run the broader ServiceNow vendor management posture.

The commercial outcome

The customer secured a zero percent uplift on the ServiceNow renewal framework against the publisher's opening ServiceNow renewal framework quote. The framework anchored the ServiceNow framework against the customer's actual ServiceNow utilization framework rather than the publisher's preferred broad ServiceNow framework. The framework delivered zero percent uplift across the ServiceNow framework against the publisher's opening ServiceNow renewal uplift framework.

The framework also locked in price protection terms across the contracted ServiceNow renewal framework, with the cumulative effect that the customer's ServiceNow framework ran alongside the customer's broader pharmaceutical technology framework.
