ISO/IEC ISO 20000 IT service management ITSM

ISO/IEC 20000 is the first worldwide standard specifically aimed at IT Service Management. It describes an integrated set of management processes for the effective delivery of services to the business and its customers.

ISO/IEC 20000 is aligned with the process approach defined within ITIL from the Office of Government Commerce (OGC).

ISO/IEC 20000 consists of two parts:

ISO/IEC 20000-1:2005 is the formal specification and defines the requirements for an organization to deliver managed services of acceptable quality to its customers. The scope includes:

  • Requirements for a management system;
  • Planning and implementing service management;
  • Planning and implementing new or changed services;
  • Service delivery process;
  • Relationship processes;
  • Resolution processes;
  • Control processes;
  • Release processes.

ISO/IEC 20000-2:2005 is the Code of Practice and describes the best practices for Service Management processes within the scope of ISO/IEC 20000-1. The code of Practice will be of particular use to organizations preparing to be audited against ISO/IEC 20000 or planning service improvements.

ISO/IEC 20000 Contributions

The ISO/IEC 20000 standard is being adopted globally by hundreds of companies and organizations already. Many have even been certified not only to use the certification as a marketing advantage, but more often to show the customers that the IT department/organization is taking the quality of services seriously. Below you will find a list of benefits of the ISO/IEC 20000 standard:

  • When comparing IT service providers, ISO 20000 IT service management ITSM provides uniform and common language as well as a norm for benchmarking.
  • When selecting an IT service provider, an IT organization can express added value when offering its services and distinguish itself from its competition.
  • When an IT department/organization is looking for ways to better understand the needs of the customer, ISO/IEC 20000 can be a norm to improve IT governance.
  • When in need of guidance to determine which best practices to focus on first, when adopting industry practices to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the IT department/organization.
  • When seeking increased transparency of IT service provision costs, risks, IT budgets and costs.
  • When looking for ways to implement changes faster and more effectively, and when seeking for a norm to improve efficiency and effectiveness.
  • When attempting to align the IT department’s/organization’s services to a third party’s services, creating a uniform chain of services from a process perspective.
  • When looking for an effective method and uniform guidelines to outsource a well-aligned process interface and common & consistent nomenclature.
  • When seeking a norm for reliable and available quality IT services.
  • When looking for evidence that IT’s processes are in compliance with international financial and security norms, rules and regulations.
  • When going for a broad range of quality improvements within the IT department/organization, as well as boosting IT’s professional image.
  • When looking for an independent and non-biased baseline to weigh service providers against and use it as a norm.
  • Most likely you will find a reason to get your organization certified while going through this list, which meets your short and long term service quality improvement needs.
