Brazil Taps Into ServiceNow Ecosystem for AI, Automation
Companies integrate new solutions from ServiceNow and providers, extend IT service platform into HR, other functions, ISG Provider Lens™ report says
SíO PAULO, May 07, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Enterprises in Brazil are embracing new technologies from ServiceNow and its ecosystem partners as they pursue AI integration, process automation and overall digital transformation, according to a new research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a global AI-centered technology research and advisory firm.
The 2025 ISG Provider Lens™ ServiceNow Ecosystem Partners report for Brazil finds that the use of ServiceNow has been growing steadily, especially in the healthcare, financial services, manufacturing and telecommunications industries. Enterprises are extending their use of ServiceNow beyond IT service desks and increasing their use of AI and generative AI, while the local ServiceNow ecosystem continues to grow significantly.
"ServiceNow is a core element of digital transformation strategies at a growing number of organizations in Brazil," said Bill Huber, partner, digital platforms and solutions, for ISG. "The company and its partners are developing solutions to meet the specific needs of key industries in Brazil."
Led by large enterprises, companies in Brazil are beginning to use ServiceNow in finance, human resources, supply chain, customer service and other areas, ISG says. Integrating ServiceNow with enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM) and HR systems enables companies to centralize data, automate complex workflows and eliminate departmental silos. This fosters greater agility and better employee and customer experiences, while increasing productivity and innovation.
A growing number of organizations in Brazil are adopting AI solutions and using ServiceNow's Now Assist feature, Generative AI Controller and integration with Microsoft Copilot, the report says. They are applying AI and GenAI solutions to tasks including automated knowledge base creation, predictive maintenance and workflows based on natural language.
ServiceNow is a major factor in the growth of hyper-automation in Brazil, ISG says. Using platforms such as ServiceNow, companies are combining AI, robotic process automation, machine learning and system integration for automation that increases productivity and lowers costs. Examples include automation of agribusiness logistics and healthcare administrative processes.
To meet evolving enterprise demands, ServiceNow managed services are shifting from simply monitoring traditional metrics such as uptime and ticket resolution times to tracking outcomes such as return on investment. There is a growing use of customized dashboards for key metrics, proactive alerts and advanced analytics.
"ServiceNow is increasingly important to Brazilian companies as they seek to streamline operations and control costs," said Jan Erik Aase, partner and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. "Its growing provider ecosystem helps enterprises embrace AI and automation."
The report also examines other ServiceNow-related trends affecting Brazilian enterprises, including the continued growth of ServiceNow training programs and the recent introduction of new provider specializations.

The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ ServiceNow Ecosystem Partners report for Brazil evaluates the capabilities of 29 providers across three quadrants: ServiceNow Consulting and Implementation Services, ServiceNow Managed Services and Innovation on ServiceNow.

KBRA Assigns Preliminary Ratings to Progress Residential 2025-SFR3
NEW YORK, June 09, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KBRA assigns preliminary ratings to eight classes of Progress Residential 2025-SFR3 (Progress 2025-SFR3) single family rental (SFR) pass-through certificates. Progress 2025-SFR3 is the first ever single-borrower, SFR securitization consisting entirely of Build-to-Rent (BTR) communities. The transaction will be collateralized by a $778.5 million five-year fixed-rate interest-only loan secured by mortgages on 2,020 income-producing single-family homes. All of the homes are located in 21 newly built, amenity-light BTR communities that were purchased by the sponsor between June 2023 and May 2024 from the original builder. The properties serving as collateral comprise 100% of the homes in 20 communities and 51% of the homes in the remaining community, with each home on an individual tax parcel. The subject transaction will be the 31st KBRA-rated SFR securitization issued by Progress Residential. The communities are located in 18 Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs) across 10 states. The top three CBSAs represent 34.0% of the portfolio and include Lakeland-Winter Haven (13.1%), Sacramento (10.8%), and Atlanta (10.2%). The single largest community accounts for 10.8% of the collateral portfolio and the top three communities account for 30.0% of the portfolio. The aggregate BPO value of the underlying homes is $782.4 million, yielding an LTV of 99.5%. KBRA adjusted the BPOs, which yielded an aggregate value of $751.1 million, which represents a 4.0% haircut to the nominal BPO value. The resulting LTV based on KBRA's adjusted BPO value was 103.6%. KBRA uses a hybrid analysis to evaluate SFR transactions, which incorporates elements of both KBRA's CMBS and RMBS methodologies, as the underlying real estate contains commercial and residential characteristics. As the properties generate a cash flow stream from tenant rental payments, elements of CMBS methodologies are used to determine the loan's probability of default (PD). To determine loss given default (LGD), KBRA assumes the underlying properties would be liquidated in the residential property market. In determining LGD, KBRA subjects the real estate properties to home price stress scenarios using elements of RMBS methodologies.
