Rebuilding a broken CMDB for a federal agency
Challenge
A large federal agency had accumulated years of stale CI data, ungoverned discovery, and no ownership model. Incident and change teams had stopped trusting the CMDB entirely.
Approach
We conducted a full health assessment, identified root causes across discovery configuration and reconciliation rules, and rebuilt the data foundation without a full restart. A governance framework was established with defined CI owners and data quality metrics.
Outcome
CI accuracy improved from under 40% to above 90% within 12 weeks. The CMDB is now actively used by change and incident management teams.
