This document discusses a 12-week program to implement a minimum viable product (MVP) on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and ServiceNow. The MVP will establish best practice workflows for provisioning, service management, and business reporting. Key user stories will be delivered in iterations to demonstrate value. The development team will focus on constant demonstration of value to business stakeholders through showcasing workflows.
