IT (Information Technology) is very essential and on-demand on delivering on today's all types of business. However, some of the concerns are increasingly being raised about IT services, internal and outsourced, it is not aligned or compliant within the needs of businesses and customers.

 

A truly recognized solution to this issue is to practice an IT Service Management System (ITSMS) based on ISO/IEC 20000, the international standard for IT Service Management.

 

Certification to this standard enables every organization to independently demonstrate to every customers that the best practices are being met. ISO/IEC 20000 is based on and replaces BS 15000, the internationally recognized British Standard.

ITSM based on ISO/IEC 20000 defines the internationally accepted set of best practices for the implementation of an IT service management system in both large and small scale organizations. 

 

ISO/IEC 20000 focuses on the Service Management System (SMS) - how your organization plans, operates, reviews, and improves the delivery of new and changed services that will add value for your customers and save money and effort. 

 

Within the SMS, the organization will focus on an integrated process approach and the well-known and efficient Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) methodology.  

 

ISO/IEC 20000 is the standard for company certification and best practices in IT Service Management. Additionally ISO/IEC 20000 gives you the tools you need to manage the process you learned in the ITIL Foundations and Intermediate classes. With this in place you will be able to take advantage of the interrelationships between the processes so your organization can mature their processes faster. ISO/IEC 20000 also defines the level of governance you need so you can properly manage internal groups and third parties, giving you tangible money saving results.
