Getting started with ISO/IEC 20000 IT Service Management

ISO/IEC 20000 is the first internationally recognized standard for IT service management. The standard is published in two parts: ISO/IEC 20000-1 outlines requirements for developing and implementing an IT management system; and ISO/IEC 20000-2 explains best practice for service management.

The standard outlines how to implement IT services that are driven by and support business objectives – rather than just technology needs. Both parts of the standard have been revised to support ITIL – showing you how to increase capacity and performance, optimizing your information technology management.
