ISO 20000 Advisory and Certification

ISO 20000 Standard applies to organizations of any size and industry. It is a global standard that specifically outlines requirements for an Information Technology Service Management System(ITSMS). The standard was designed and developed to reflect the industry’s best practices for the management processes. Complying with the ISO20000 framework to manage the ITSM will help deliver effective IT services. The Standard comprises two parts namely-

1. IT Service Management (ISO 20000-1) is a standard for IT Service Management. It draws out requirements for delivering quality managed IT services to clients which should be on par with acceptable standards.

2. Code of practice for service management (ISO 20000-2) – is a standard of best practice for IT Service Management. It defines the framework for the management process that helps improve the quality of IT services.

Complying with the ISOO20000 Standards will ensure the organization’s ITSM processes are aligned with both the requirement of business and also international best practices.

ITIL is a very vast and comprehensive standard with thousands of requirements. We are not aware of any company in the world which has implemented the entire standard end to end. Organisations typically take specific control sets from ITIL and implement the same. Furthermore ITIL is not a certifiable standard.

ISO20000 on the other hand is a certifiable standard. It is by and large derived from the key requirements of ITIL. So, from the branding perspective, then ISO20000 is always a good choice.

Implementing ISO 20000 involves different processes and company-specific parameters. Depends on the type of service provided, people involved, first-timer, or recertification, the exact amount can be defined.

Depending on the business, compliance or regulatory requirement of an organization the decision should be taken. However, ISO 27001 is for Information Security Management in an organization & ISO 20000 is for IT Service Management.
