7 Phase Successful Implementation Approach

We bring our world wide experience in implementing IT service management system (SMS) in line with ISO 20000 requirements.

Phase I - Defining Scope and Service Catalog

Scope helps in determining the certification requirement, whereas the service catalogue helps in defining all other process boundaries.

Phase II -
Gap Analysis

ISO 20000 - 2018 has individual 58 requirements - each of which needs to be assessed for their current status. At the end of the journey all of these have to be green(=implemented), if they are Red (=not in place) or orange (=partially in place) today.

Phase III - ISO 20000-2018 Documentation

We provide comprehensive, yet easy to read documentation that will enable teams to comply. Each document is followed with templates and communication to perform the task, with ease.

Phase IV -
3 Dimensional Tracking

In this phase we track your documentation, your risks, and your accountability. Each documented information (policy / procedure / records / responsibility / communication) needs ownership.

Phase V -
Performance Monitoring

We verify whether your ITSM transactions are in line with documented procedure and rate them on a scale of 0-100% thereby assuring management that the degree of compliance is achieved.

Phase VI - Internal Audit and Management Review

This is done to ensure completeness of compliance requirements and to verify if there are pending loopholes in the management system.

Phase VII - Registration body certification

This has two stages:
1. Documentation Audit
2. Implementation Verification

Upon successful completion an ISO 20000 certificate is issued which
has a validity of 3 years subject to annual surveillance.
