Siemens and ServiceNow enable cloud-based management of OT assets
The partnership between Siemens and ServiceNow enables transparency in industrial asset management.
Transparency in industrial asset management
This Software-as-a-Service solution from Siemens enables the recognition, identification, and management of all OT devices to simplify and automate their processes. It makes the status of all OT devices across the network completely transparent, regardless of manufacturer or device type, using just one tool. This functionality extends the NowPlatform, which already provides management of IT assets. With this expansion, Siemens and ServiceNow are addressing the need of their shared customers to increase transparency across the entire shop floor.

This functionality extends the NowPlatform, which already provides management of IT assets. With this expansion, Siemens and ServiceNow are addressing the need of their shared customers to increase transparency across the entire shop floor.
As a result, incidents that could disrupt the production process in industrial plants can
be prevented. The tool also allows for planning service tasks, identifying potential
security vulnerabilities, and dispatching service personnel without additional manual or
time costs. OT assets can now be managed with the same flexibility and
interoperability as IT assets.
“OT management is 10 years behind IT management. ServiceNow has already
mastered IT asset management – and this partnership means opening our ecosystem
and leaving behind the silos. By combining the IT expertise of ServiceNow with our OT
knowledge, we’re truly putting IT and OT convergence into practice and enabling speed
and scale for our shared customers.” – Dirk Didascalou, CTO Digital Industries
Collaboration of Siemens and ServiceNow strengthens the industrial ecosystem
for better integration of IT and OT
“The digital transformation of manufacturing processes
is happening at a rapid pace. We are witnessing the fusion of the physical and
digital worlds, and IT and OT convergence is an underlying enabler. That
digital transformation brings new opportunities for new business models and can
help increase productivity significantly. Siemens and ServiceNow are committed
to helping customers realize these benefits." – Karel van der Poel, Senior Vice
President Products at ServiceNow
With this partnership, Siemens and ServiceNow are strengthening an industrial
ecosystem to accelerate the digital transformation of industrial customers. The
scalable, open, and secure cloud service extends the Siemens Xcelerator digital
business platform and Industrial Operations X interoperable portfolio. This continuously
growing portfolio covers the areas of production engineering, execution, and
optimization. With Industrial Operations X, Siemens is consistently integrating IT and
software capabilities in the world of automation to make production processes more
flexible, autonomous, and better tailored to people’s needs.
