Benefits of ITIL • Alignment with business needs. ITIL becomes an asset to the business when IT can proactively recommend solutions as a response to one or more business needs. The IT Strategy Group recommended in Service Strategy and the implementation of Service Portfolio Management gives IT the opportunity to understand the business’ current and future needs and develop service offerings that can address them. • Negotiated achievable service levels. Business and IT become true partners when they can agree upon realistic service levels that deliver the necessary value at an acceptable cost. • Predictable, consistent processes. Customer expectations can beset and are easier to meet with through the use of predictable processes that are consistently used. As well, good practice processes are foundational and can assist in laying the groundwork to meet regulatory compliance requirements. • Efficiency in service delivery. Well-defined processes with clearly documented accountability for each activity as recommended through the use of a RACI matrix can significantly increase the efficiency of processes. In conjunction with the evaluation of efficiency metrics that indicate the time required to perform each activity, service delivery tasks can be optimized. • Measurable, improvable services and processes. The adage that you can’t manage what you cannot measure rings true here. Consistent, repeatable processes can be measured and therefore can be better tuned for accurate delivery and overall effectiveness. For example, presume that a critical success factor for incident management is to reduce the time to restore service. When predictable, consistent processes are used key performance indicators such as Mean Time To Restore Service can be captured to determine whether this KPI is trending in a positive or negative direction so that the appropriate adjustments can be made. Additionally, under ITIL guidelines, services are designed to be measurable. With the proper metrics and monitoring in place, IT organizations can monitor SLAs and make improvements as necessary. • A common language – terms are defined.

Benefits of ITIL Whitepaper “ • From a business perspective, the adoption of ITIL practices by IT service providers – whether in-house providers or external suppliers – ensures many benefits, including: • IT services which align better with business priorities and objectives, meaning that the business achieves more in terms of its strategic objectives • Known and manageable IT costs, ensuring the business better plans its finances • Increased business productivity, efficiency and effectiveness, because IT services are more reliable and work better for the business users • Financial savings from improved resource management and reduced rework • More effective change management, enabling the business to keep pace with change and drive business change to its advantage • Improved user and customer satisfaction with IT • Improved end-customer perception and brand image. • Real organizations have benefited from ITIL practices in a number of ways – for example: • A nationwide retail organization made savings in excess of £600,000 per annum by adopting service strategy practices for its financial management. • An organization identified that most of the cost of delivering IT support came from resolving customer issues. By adopting ITIL approaches to knowledge-based information and self-help, it was able to reduce costs of support by over 75% while at the same time increasing user satisfaction with the service, and improving user productivity. • A medium-sized IT service organization invested e2.6m in a two-year program to improve its IT service management. It recouped the investment within the first year, and achieved annual savings of e3.5m mainly through rationalizing unused and under-used resources (people, software licenses, IT hardware etc). It also reduced IT incident resolution times and improved customer satisfaction by over 11%. • A large multinational company made annual savings of £5m by introducing ITIL service design practices to its IT supplier management From whitepaper: “Executive Briefing: The Benefits of ITIL” by Maggie Kneller, Independent Consultant
