IT Service Management
The idea that IT should be provided as a service is at the heart of ITSM. An example ITSM scenario would involve requesting new equipment
People frequently mistake ITSM for simple IT support because of their regular interactions with IT. On the other hand, ITSM teams are in charge of managing every type of office technology, from laptops to servers to mission-critical software programs.
This process focuses on restoring normal service operation as quickly as possible following an incident. It involves logging, categorizing, prioritizing, and resolving incidents to minimize disruptions and restore services to the users.
Problem Management aims to identify and address the underlying causes of recurring incidents to prevent future occurrences. It involves investigating root causes, analyzing trends, and implementing corrective actions to eliminate problems and minimize their impact on services.
Change Management governs the controlled implementation of changes to IT services and infrastructure. It includes processes for assessing and approving changes, managing risks, coordinating implementation, and evaluating the impact on services and stakeholders.
Release Management is responsible for planning, scheduling, and controlling the movement of releases (e.g., new software versions, patches, or hardware upgrades) into the production environment. It ensures that changes are properly tested, documented, and deployed with minimal disruption to services.
This process handles user requests for specific services, such as password resets, software installations, or hardware provisioning. It typically involves a self-service portal, service catalog, and workflows to streamline and automate the fulfillment of user requests.
Configuration Management focuses on maintaining accurate and up-to-date information about the configuration of IT assets and their relationships. It includes processes for configuration identification, control, status tracking, and reporting, ensuring a reliable and efficient management of the IT infrastructure.
Service Level Management establishes and manages service level agreements (SLAs) between IT and its customers. It involves defining and negotiating service levels, monitoring performance against agreed targets, and reporting on service level achievements.
This process aims to ensure that IT services can be recovered and restored in a timely manner after the occurrence of a major incident or disaster. It involves developing and maintaining a business continuity plan, performing risk assessments, and implementing measures to mitigate potential disruptions.
IT Asset Management focuses on managing the lifecycle of IT assets, including hardware, software, and licenses. It involves processes for procurement, tracking, control, and retirement of assets, optimizing costs and maintaining compliance.
