The biggest challenge many companies face with maturing IT service management (ITSM) is determining which processes to mature and how much process formality is required.
- Info-Tech’s primary research has identified a few, simple steps to improve service management maturity.
- Info-Tech’s ITSM research is organized into an easy-to-understand Onion Model that IT leaders can use to assess their current practices and plan improvements.
- Rather than peeling from the outside-in, service management improvement happens from the center of the Onion, core infrastructure services, and works towards the outside, to establish business-facing IT service alignment.
