I'n my case I do not treat Spectrum itself as ONE single service. From my 
perspective, Spectrum is a service delivery platform, from which we deliver 
many services. Easy example: "Pinging a device" is a service, which demand a 
"Ping" -service CI in CMDB. The order process relate's the "Ping" service with 
a device and by reading that config from CMDB, Spectrum can verify it's 
servicedelivery configuration.

Do you have a example on Spectrum/CMDB integration in terms of services?

Spectrum should be a CI if it is essential to service quality (which I
presume it is in most shops), and so it should be in the CMDB, and
changes to it should consult the CMDB.
