Information Technology Service Management Systems ITSMS – ISO/IEC 20000-1:2011
Information Technology Service Management Systems – ITSMS certification scheme is based on the ISO 20000:2011 standard. The scheme is aimed at improving IT service management and describes an integrated set of management processes for the effective delivery of services to the business and its customers.
IT is a business enabler, defined service levels, quality of IT services, customer focus are some of the key differentiators in IT.
For a Chief Information Officer, there are senior management directives to reduce IT costs while users keep demanding new services and continual improvement in existing IT services.
Information Technology Service Management Systems – ISO 20000 provides a pathway toward achieving these goals.

For a Chief Information Officer, there are senior management directives to reduce IT costs while users keep demanding new services and continual improvement in existing IT services.
- ISO 20000 is a set of 173 controls broadly from three main areas – Five (5) IT Service Delivery processes and Five (5) IT Service Support processes from ITIL v2 and Continual Improvement processes from ISO 9001. Therefore, in a way ISO 20000 is customisation of ISO 9001 to IT Service Management.
- Although ITIL v2 has been revised to ITIL v3, the 2005 version of ISO 20000 has not yet been revised. ITIL and ISO 20000 are complementary to each other.
- ISO 20000 certification helps to improve the image of IT Department and IT Service Provider organisations. It is a good way to kick-start the adoption of ITIL Best Practices. For small third party IT service providers, a few of their clients even demand ISO 20000 certification as a precondition to awarding contracts.
