Most ITSM strategies don’t fail because of the platform. They fail because knowledge management is treated like a static repository instead of an active part of service delivery. Knowledge articles get outdated. Agents stop using them. Self-service adoption stalls. And AI initiatives struggle because the underlying knowledge isn’t reliable or connected to real workflows. Modern ITSM environments demand something different. As AI, automation, predictive support, and virtual agents become more embedded into service operations, knowledge management needs to evolve from documentation into an intelligence layer that actively supports resolution, consistency, and scale. That means: ➡️ Capturing knowledge during issue resolution ➡️ Continuously improving content through usage and feedback ➡️ Connecting knowledge directly to automation and workflows ➡️ Making answers accessible, relevant, and actionable The organizations seeing the best ITSM outcomes aren’t just investing in tools. They’re rethinking how knowledge flows across the entire service ecosystem. Buchanan explores why modern ITSM requires a new approach to knowledge management — and what organizations should prioritize moving forward. 👉 Read more: hubs.ly/Q04fMsgW0
