Frequently Asked Questions.

Why should I become an ISO 20000 Lead Implementer?

Becoming an ISO 20000 Lead Implementer offers several valuable advantages, such as: • Improved career opportunities and the potential for increased income. • Acknowledgment as a skilled and proficient IT Service Management (ITSM) professional. • The ability to successfully manage and lead ISO 20000 implementation projects. • A deeper understanding of industry best practices in IT service management. • The opportunity to enhance organizational performance, drive customer satisfaction, and ensure compliance with global standards.

How does ISO 20000 relate to ITIL?

ISO 20000 is an internationally recognized standard for IT Service Management Systems (SMS), outlining the framework and requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and enhancing an SMS. On the other hand, ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) is a popular framework of best practices for IT service management that can be leveraged to support the adoption of ISO 20000. The two are complementary, with ITIL offering practical guidance on how to fulfill the specific requirements set by ISO 20000.

What are the key benefits of ISO 20000 certification for organizations?

For organizations, obtaining ISO 20000 certification, typically supported by a Lead Implementer, brings several key advantages, including: • Improved IT service quality and reliability. • Greater customer confidence and satisfaction. • Stronger alignment of IT services with business goals. • Increased operational efficiency and cost reduction. • A structured approach for the continuous improvement of IT services. • A competitive edge and enhanced market differentiation.

What is the difference between ISO 20000 and other IT management frameworks?

ISO 20000 is a formal, certifiable standard that sets clear, auditable requirements for an IT Service Management System. In contrast, frameworks like ITIL offer best-practice guidelines but do not require formal certification. While ISO 20000 outlines what needs to be implemented, frameworks like ITIL typically focus on how to achieve those objectives.

Who is the ISO 20000 standard intended for?

The ISO 20000 standard is designed for organizations that deliver IT services, whether internally or externally. It applies to organizations of all sizes and industries, regardless of the specific IT services they provide.
