Use case

IT access & device provisioning

Keep IT onboarding and access changes consistent across every desktop and system.

Standardize device setup, software installs, and access requests across identity, MDM, and ticketing tools.

Outcomes
  • Reduce time-to-ready for new hires and contractors.
  • Prevent access gaps with consistent approval trails.
  • Keep device and software rollouts predictable.

Metrics to watch

Pilot validation signals

Use these signals to validate your pilot and prioritize what to scale next.

  • Time from request to provisioned access.
  • Percentage of devices fully compliant within 24 hours.
  • Number of access escalations per month.
