IT Service and Operations Management

IT Service and Operations Management are two of the most important cloud initiatives in the government Government space today. Legacy products are not easy to maintain, and agencies need a platform that scales to the agency’s growth. Today’s government Government customers need a reactive approach to ticketing with self-service capabilities. They need more automated IT processes and less manual tasks. As agencies look at adopting solutions like ServiceNow, Spunk, and Atlassian, they need a trusted partner who can build, migrate, and support the deployments government customers need. Karthik Consulting has nearly a decade of experience helping customers like the Office of Naval Research (ONR) and the US Army Combat Readiness Center (USACRC) build, operate, and maintain new and upgraded software deployments.
