Today, it is my great pleasure to announce that Bartłomiej Duma has joined Xurrent, Inc. Bartek (as he is known to us) has taken on the role of service management consultant, which means that he will be supporting Xurrent partners and customers with their Xurrent implementations.

About 5 years ago, Bartek started to work with Xurrent at Danone where he helped several Danone organizations with their service management implementations. Later, he worked for Opera Software as a system administrator. This has allowed him to experience service management from a very practical perspective. Apart from his activities at Xurrent, Bartek continues to provide ITIL Foundation training.
The combination of his theoretical ITIL knowledge and his hand-on background supporting Xurrent implementations and working in the trenches as a system administrator, makes Bartek a valuable addition to our team. We are very happy to have him on board.

A Note From the Road: What SPARK Taught Me About Time
During the second SPARK event in Antwerp, I stood at the back of a training room and watched a customer build a custom integration with our new iPaaS, wiring Xurrent to another system in her stack that had never talked to it before. No services rep doing it for her. No statement of work, no project plan with a kickoff and a go-live date. Just a person with live beta access in her hands, connecting two systems by hand, and finishing it before her coffee went cold. A year ago that would have been a multi-week project with a budget attached. She looked up, a little surprised it had actually worked, and said something I have not stopped thinking about since. She said it just gave her her week back.

How Long Should ITSM Implementation Really Take in 2026?
Most vendors will tell you ITSM implementation takes six months to a year — but modern, configuration-first platforms have rewritten the math entirely. See what real implementations look like in 2026, and why a long rollout is now a choice, not a given.
