📌 Overview
This project demonstrates a developer-focused implementation of an automated ITSM incident management system built on the ServiceNow platform.
The solution is designed to reduce manual triage, enforce consistent prioritization, and improve SLA compliance through a combination of server-side scripting, workflow automation, and configurable platform features.
