ECS’ ServiceNow NSC Migration Services have enabled Defense
Microelectronics Activity to obtain authorization to use the
IL5-compliant National Security Cloud
ECS, a leader in advanced technology, science, and engineering
solutions and an ASGN (NYSE: ASGN) brand, is the first IT provider
to stand up a customer in the secure ServiceNow National Security
Cloud (NSC) and achieve authorization to operate (ATO). ECS has
enabled Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) — the Department
of Defense (DoD) laboratory that helps to provide the U.S.
government with leading-edge microelectronics technologies — to use
the ServiceNow platform in the NSC.
Created by ServiceNow for DoD and other federal agencies, the
NSC is a ServiceNow-supported environment that provides security,
compliance, operational efficiency, and financial benefits for
agencies held to IL5 security standards. DMEA’s migration to the
NSC is the first of many ECS plans to carry out.
“ECS provided the expert risk-management framework and ATO
services that enabled DMEA to obtain the first ATO in the National
Security Cloud and go live with ServiceNow,” said Martin Burke,
vice president of Integrated Solutions at ECS. “This significant
milestone sets the standard for future NSC implementations.”
Widely used by public and private organizations for digital
transformation, the ServiceNow SaaS platform has enabled DMEA to
modernize its customer and contractor management and IT-service
management and offer an improved employee experience. The agency
plans to use the platform to leverage workflow automation and
modernize facilities management systems and is considering other
possible uses, such as IT asset management, IT operations
management, and security operations.
“Many agencies will be moving to the NSC,” said John Heneghan,
president of ECS, “and we’re honored to be in a position to help
them protect national security data while they use ServiceNow to
streamline workflows, optimize processes, and otherwise improve how
they work and support their missions.”
A longtime ServiceNow technology partner, ECS has extensive
experience meeting the technical and administrative challenges of
migrating government systems and data to new computing
environments, system implementation, and obtaining ATOs. Employees
of the 30-year-old IT services provider hold more than 2,000
government clearances, and the company has obtained nearly 300
ATOs.
