# Provider tasks

Enable all providers using Service Exchange to be transparent and collaborative with their consumers who use ServiceNow.

Provider tasks represent work that is being performed in a provider's ServiceNow instance and monitored in a consumer's instance. By using Provider Tasks, consumers can collaborate with all of their providers without the need for any additional configuration to their instances.
