Overview
Xavor developed a customized ServiceNow dashboard to help internal support teams monitor incidents, track performance, and improve operational transparency. The dashboard provided real-time visibility into incident trends across different time frames, enabling team leads to make faster, more informed decisions.
The initiative supported both reactive and proactive decision-making while aligning with Xavor’s continuous improvement goals.
Business Challenge
The support team needed a clearer and faster way to monitor incidents and track team performance. Since the process relied heavily on manual review, team leads spent too much time checking incident data and daily progress. Here are the key challenges our support teams faced.
- 1. Limited real-time visibility into incident status and trends
- 2. Time-consuming incident review and reporting process
- 3. Need for better accountability across support activities
- 4. Opportunity to improve SLA alignment and resolution efficiency
5. Difficulty tracking performance across daily, weekly, and monthly time frames
Xavor needed to create a dashboard that gave support leads a clear, real-time view of incidents and reduced the need for manual reporting.
the solution
We designed and implemented a customized ServiceNow dashboard tailored to the support team’s operational needs. The dashboard enabled users to monitor incidents by status and time frame, including Today, Yesterday, Week-to-Date (WTD), and Month-to-Date (MTD) views.
- Dynamic Dashboard Views
The dashboard included dedicated tabs for Today, Yesterday, WTD, and MTD, allowing users to quickly analyze incident trends across different reporting periods.
- KPI Tiles and Drill-Downs
We added KPI tiles and drill-down capabilities to help users view key incident metrics at a glance and investigate details when needed.
- Real-Time Incident Visibility
The dashboard gave team leads real-time access to incident data, helping them track daily progress, identify bottlenecks, and respond faster to changing support needs.
- Status and Time-Based Filters
Dynamic filters allowed users to view incidents by status and time frame, making it easier to monitor workload, progress, and resolution patterns.
