24. ISO/IEC 20000 Certification Scheme

25. The scope of Certification • ISO 20000 is aimed at organisations providing a Service Management operation, whether internal or external • Certification is NOT (in itself) appropriate for an organisation which provides best practice advice • Certification is NOT possible for products such as Service Management tools • The role of Consultancy organisations is to give advice in preparation for an independent audit

26. Registered Certification Bodies (RCBs) • itSMF will approve Registered Certification Bodies (RCBs) and grant a licence to use the itSMF logo • RCBs are totally independent from any consultancy and their auditors have been specifically trained in IT Service Management • Adding value to the organisation being audited and maintaining the quality of the certification • Process areas already certified from other standards (eg ISO 9000, ISO 27001) are not usually required to be re-audited – as long as the scope is the same

27. Registered Certification Bodies (RCB) • BSI Management Systems (United Kingdom) • BVQI Ltd (offices worldwide) (United Kingdom) • CIS-Certification and Information Security Services GmbH • DNV Certification Ltd (United Kingdom) • DQS GmbH (Germany) • Japan Quality Assurance Organization • KEMA Quality BV (Netherlands) • KPMG Audit Plc (United Kingdom) • KPMG Quality Registrar (India) • LRQA Ltd (United Kingdom) • PSB Certification Pte Ltd • SGS Hong Kong Ltd • SGS United Kingdom Ltd • SQS (Switzerland) • STQC (India) • TUV Management Service GmbH (Germany) • TUV Nord Cert GmbH • Underwriters Laboratories Inc

38. Alignment with ITIL

39. ITIL Service Support Processes & Functions

40. ITIL Service Delivery Processes

41. Alignment of ISO 20000 and ITIL • Driven either through choice, or by customer demand, ITIL has been adopted by many organisations as a proven methodology for managing their IT services • Many organisations and in particular the Public Sector, see ITIL as a necessary requirement to conduct business • ITIL however is not a standard, and therefore the alignment between ITIL and ISO 20000 allows an organisation to be effectively measured

42. Alignment of ISO 20000 and ITIL • ISO 20000 Certification provides proof through audit that best practice has been deployed through an independent, external, evaluation by an approved audit organisation • Customer demand for ISO 20000 Certification is fast becoming another business requirement for organisations to remain competitive • ISO 20000 is aligned with ITIL

43. Inter Relationships

Adopted internationally as ISO 20000 in December 2005 Gartner • “The release of the British Standard for IT Service Management (BS 15000) marks the first step toward the delivery of IT services becoming much more consistent across organisational and national borders” • “All improvement efforts in Service Management should be done with ITIL and BS 15000 as a frame of reference and baseline”
