Service continuity management: This component of the ITIL foundation is often referred to as IT service continuity management (ITSCM). It secures the service provider's ability to meet the agreed-upon service-level threshold. Techniques involved with ITSCM include business impact analysis (BIA) and management of risk (MOR). Practitioner. This level helps professionals adapt ITIL to their organizations so that it supports business objectives. Admins can take the course any time after a Foundation certification. This module also covers organizational change management, communication and metrics, which aren't available in all certifications. An official ITIL Maturity, Capability, or Comprehensive Assessment can only be performed by a licensed Axelos Consulting Partner (ACP) and accredited assessor; and the vetting process required to perform these assessments provides confidence in the quality of both the assessor and their firm and ensures you’ll receive an assessment that’s objective and, most importantly, useful in improving your organization and its service management capabilities. Assessors are required to show evidence of ITSM and consulting experience, pass a rigorous examination, and undergo a credentialing process. Furthermore, only an ACP can certify maturity and capability scores. ACPs must meet a set of stringent standards established by Axelos, including maintaining an assessment portfolio, retaining archival evidence of past assessments, providing annual assessment summary statistics, and having certified lead assessors who have passed an exam and demonstrate significant experiential requirements. technical management practices, covering software development, deployment, infrastructure and platform. Service desk: The service desk is the portal in which help desk technicians connect with customers. Its primary functions are incident resolution, communication, and service request management.

Change management is the establishment of best practices to minimize IT service disruptions, compliance issues and other risks that might result from changes made to critical systems. COBIT is an IT governance framework created in 1996 by the Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA). It provides guidance for businesses that seek to use IT services to minimize risk, ensure compliance with regulatory mandates, and achieve better business outcomes. Organizations looking for detailed process descriptions can still find them in the ITIL V3 publications (AXELOS state that ITIL 4 does not invalidate earlier vesions of ITIL, and the processes as specified in ITIL V3 are therefore still valid guidance). Change management: The primary goal of change management is to minimise IT service disruptions resulting from change. The phrase service strategy refers to the phase of the ITIL process that syncs business goals with the IT service lifecycle. Service strategy has four subcategories:ITSM needs continued to expand, and in 2007 ITIL v3 was released as a more comprehensive and organized update to ITIL v2. This updated version of ITIL was structured as a set of five publications, each corresponding to an individual stage of the IT service lifecycle: Plan: The creation of plans, policies, standards and setting the direction for a certain value stream. Measurement and reporting - This practice aids in improving forecasting and decision-making at all organizational levels, from planning to user support. It provides information that is based on facts and measures the progress and effectiveness of products, processes, services, teams, individuals and the organization as a whole. Organizations use Critical Success Factors (CSFs) and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure the achievement of intended results. On the reporting front, data can be collected and presented through dashboards, which help support good decision making. Service Strategy , which describes business goals and customer requirements, as well as how to align objectives of both entities;

Knowledge management (KM) is the process of identifying, organizing, storing and disseminating information within an organization. A searchable, self-service knowledge base is usually a core KM tool. It gives users across the organization easy access to IT service-related issues and resolutions, metrics, documentation, tech topics and other resources. Iforganizationsare to keep things simple and become more agile, they will likely need processes that are somewhat less complex than the 26 service management processes familiar from ITIL V3. Release and deployment management: This process includes planning, scheduling, and migrating releases from the testing environment to the live environment. It is essential to maintain the integrity of the live environment. A practice or ITIL management practice in ITIL 4 is defined by Axelos as a set of organizational resources designed for performing work or accomplishing an objective. In ITIL v3 (the previous version of ITIL), the framework consists of five stages as a part of the ITIL service lifecycle. Each stage consists of a set of processes or functions that are aligned with the IT organizational structure. ITIL 4, on the other hand, describes "practices" instead of processes. Although these two words are used interchangeably, they mean completely different things in the context of IT service management. Continual ImprovementITIL 3 remained the most current version of ITIL from 2007 until 2019, when ITIL v4 was finally released. ITIL 4 offers a systematic approach to ITSM with more stable IT environments, reduced expenses, better awareness of risk, and enhanced customer support. The methodologies in ITIL v4 focus more on automated processes, the integration and expansion of service management beyond IT, and the improvement of collaboration and communication across the entire organization—holistically extending the focus beyond the traditional service lifecycle. In ITSM, an incident is an unplanned outage or interruption in service. Incident management is the process of responding to an incident with the goal of restoring the service with minimal impact to users and business processes. Evaluation: The evaluation process requires the assessment of new services or significant changes to existing services. Deliver and support: Ensures that services are delivered and supported in a way that it meets the stakeholders’ expectations. ITIL v3 Processes vs ITIL 4 Practices Continual improvement - It aligns the organization’s services with the constantly changing needs by improving products, services, and practices at every stage of service delivery. The continual improvement model contains several steps that revolve around what the organization’s vision is, where they are at the moment, where they want to be (what they want to achieve), how to get there, take action, and analyze if they have achieved their goals in the end.

Service design - Improper design of products and services results in failure to meet the customers’ needs. The service design management practice helps design products and services that are the right fit for the organization’s ecosystem, facilitate value creation and help realize the business objectives. It includes planning and organizing people, partners, suppliers, IT, communication, and processes. Only trained and authorized ITIL Maturity Model consultants working for an Axelos Consulting Partner (ACP) are licensed to deliver the assessments. For those who wish to migrate to the new ITIL 4 certification scheme, AXELOS have prepared a transition plan: This model contrasts with previous versions, shifting the focus from mere IT service management to a comprehensive value-driven approach. She married Matteo Milleri, an Italian DJ, on 1 June 2020 in Ibiza, Spain [18] and they divorced in June 2023. [19]Last but not least, ITIL 4 makes a point of being "a framework for service management" (as opposed to "IT service management"), reflecting the growing trend of applying service management best practices in the domain of enterprise and business services. Capacity management: ITIL defines capacity as the “maximum throughput a service, system, or device can handle.” Three primary areas of focus are involved with capacity management— Business Capacity Management (BCM), Service Capacity Management (SCM), and Component Capacity Management (CCM). In April 2001, CCTA, along with several other agencies, were rolled into theOffice of Government Commerce(OGC), which is now known as theCabinet Office. The OGC adopted the project as part of its mission to work with the UK public sector as a catalyst to achieve efficiency, value for money in commercial activities, and improved success in the delivery of programs and projects. A high-level Maturity Assessment offers a broader level of assessment. In this case, a team can choose to assess its larger ecosystem at a high level with or without evaluating any specific practices. For many teams, this is a good option since it provides the opportunity to gain an understanding of areas like Guiding Principles (our shared values), Governance (the guardrails in place), and the Service Value Chain (the key steps involved in getting work done), which are not reviewed in a conventional assessment; but also accommodates deeper analysis of one or more relevant practices. Comprehensive Assessment ITIL 4 defines four dimensions that should be considered to ensure a holistic approach to service management:

In short, although the CMMI and Gartner Models as well as a number of other standards, such as ISO 20000, are reasonable and serve a purpose, the ITIL Maturity model is better suited to assess an organization’s Service Management efforts. Standardisation. Standardisation is one of the primary goals of the ITIL foundation. ITIL helps create predictable IT environments, making it easier to manage risks, problem-solve, and streamline processes.Design and transition: Ensures that the products and services offered continuously meet stakeholders’ demands.
