The problem
Thousands of articles, no clear owner.
Over time the knowledge base had grown to thousands of articles, many overlapping, outdated or owned by people who had left. Technicians kept running into:
- Conflicting or duplicate articles
- Content filed under the wrong categories
- Outdated procedures still visible to technicians
- Slower resolution times and less confidence in the answers
Reviewing it all by hand was impractical. Leadership needed an automated way to keep auditing and refining the knowledge base.
The solution
How it works.
An AI analysis pipeline connects to ServiceNow’s Knowledge Management API, checks every article, cross-references ownership with HR and Active Directory, and routes each one to consolidation, archival or verification.
Key capabilities
What it does.
01
Duplicate detection
NLP similarity scores find near-duplicate and redundant articles.
02
Ownership validation
Article owners are checked against HR and Active Directory to flag retired or inactive employees.
03
Classification accuracy
Machine learning reads keywords and context to catch misfiled articles and suggest the right category.
04
Lifecycle automation
Outdated or duplicate articles are queued for consolidation or archival; validated ones are marked current.
05
Governance dashboard
Power BI shows article health, ownership and classification accuracy for leadership.
Quality without the manual grind.
Continuous analysis keeps the knowledge base accurate without anyone combing through it by hand.
