ITSM Process Enablement * Partner with Incident, Problem, and Change Management to ensure CI relationships accurately support impact analysis, blast-radius assessment, and change risk evaluation. * Support service mapping and the definition of business services, application services, and their dependencies. Reporting, Dashboards & Analytics * Build reports, dashboards, and Performance Analytics to surface CMDB health, asset compliance, and lifecycle KPIs for IT leadership and stakeholders.
