Organizations are rapidly adapting their products and services to meet increasing customer demand for a frictionless experience. To meet this changing customer mindset, IT departments must evolve beyond traditional IT service management (ITSM) strategy and capabilities to generate value and achieve the business outcomes set by their organization. Business and IT must share common principles, strategy, and goals to survive and thrive as technology and consumer expectations change.

96% of CIOs surveyed say their role is expanding beyond traditional IT services management responsibilities to leading digital transformation, crafting strategy, and taking on revenue accountability.

Info-Tech has mapped common customer journeys that will help continually improve service management practices and add value to your organization while providing a service management framework that is adaptable to change, and is trusted, measured, and well-governed.
