How JERA Nex bp Transformed Service Management to Operate on a Global Scale With InvGate
JERA Nex bp, a global offshore wind developer born from a joint venture between JERA and bp, set out to accelerate renewable energy worldwide. But as the company grew from a regional team to a 750+ employee operation, its internal IT tools struggled to keep up.
Their existing ticketing system was heavily reliant on email, lacked a functional service catalog, and provided only the most basic reporting. The result? Low portal adoption, slow ticket routing, and minimal visibility into team performance.
To scale operations globally while keeping user experience front and center, JERA Nex bp chose InvGate Service Management. The transition unlocked automated workflows, enabled data-driven decisions, and set the foundation for Enterprise Service Management (ESM) across the organization.
The starting point
Prior to the shift, JERA Nex bp faced common IT Service Management (ITSM) growing pains:
- A poor service catalog experience made users stick to email.
- Manual ticket assignment created response bottlenecks.
- The system offered little insight beyond basic ticket counts.
- Supporting users across time zones and languages added complexity.
As support demand increased, the IT team lacked the tools to keep pace. Its tool needed to do more than just manage tickets. It had to enable scale, simplify workflows, and promote adoption at a global level.
Choosing a new path
After evaluating five platforms, including the enterprise version of their existing solution and a major legacy vendor, JERA Nex bp selected InvGate Service Management. What sets it apart?
- A clean, modern interface that made the tool attractive to end-users.
- An intuitive search experience that boosted portal usage.
- Robust workflow automation to handle rising ticket volumes.
- Quick configuration without outside consultants or long training cycles.
- Seamless integration with Active Directory for user provisioning.
- Native multilingual support to accommodate a global workforce.
