Bell to expand use of the ServiceNow platform to augment tech services portfolio for Bell Business Markets enterprise customers as well as transform its network and IT infrastructure
Now Platform to streamline business‑critical areas for Bell, including Network, Customer, Field Service Operations, and Corporate Services

Bell Canada and ServiceNow announced a multi‑year strategic agreement to accelerate Bell’s transformation to meet the growing customer demand for tech services and digital media. The renewed commitment makes Bell one of ServiceNow’s largest communications customers with a first of its kind collaboration in Canada. Bell will expand its use of the ServiceNow platform, supporting its own digital transformation while continuing to offer ServiceNow implementation expertise to support the digital transformation of its Bell Business Markets customers.

FX Innovation, a leader in cloud focused services, an Elite ServiceNow implementation partner and acquired by Bell in 2023, will implement the Now Platform throughout Bell’s ecosystem. Bell will use automation, purpose‑built telecommunications solutions, and AI‑driven insights to provide both technicians and customers with a more efficient experience, enhancing customer service. The Now Platform is a key factor in Bell’s digital transformation strategy and will streamline several areas of the business, including Network, Customer and Field Service Operations and Corporate Services, resulting in:

An AI‑optimized experience leveraging the power of GenAI‑driven insights to automate scheduling, better meet customer requests, and reduce drive time.
Enhanced customer support with powerful automation capabilities to streamline order management, case management, and incident response processes.
Faster service deliveries using purpose‑built telecommunications solutions designed to enable customers to get their needs met in a matter of hours or days versus weeks.

“This partnership positions Bell to be a leader within Canada’s tech services landscape, offering Canadian enterprises end‑to‑end support for their digital transformations as we transform our own network and infrastructure,” said Mirko Bibic, President and CEO, BCE Inc. and Bell Canada. “Our ‘inside‑outside’ approach to digital transformation is our catalyst for innovations inside our network and IT infrastructure while fueling the service experience for our customers.”

“ServiceNow is excited to partner with Bell as we set a new standard of excellence for the telecommunications industry,” said Bill McDermott, ServiceNow Chairman and CEO. “Today, the technology strategy is the business strategy. Together, Bell and ServiceNow are a leading example of what technology is meant to do – deliver the best experiences for customers and employees, along with new avenues for growth.”

The Bell and ServiceNow collaboration builds on an initial engagement announced in November 2023. Bell was among the first to launch ServiceNow Service Bridge capabilities in North America, augmenting Bell Business Markets’ robust suite of service offerings. The new collaboration strengthens Bell in its purpose to advance how Canadians connect with each other and the world, while supporting the company’s evolution from a telecommunications company to tech services leader.
