9 ITSM Strategy! An ultimate goal for any business is to deliver a better service, offer customer experience and aim always for improvements. ITIL describes the value of a service to a customer in terms of Utility, fitness for purpose (offers functionality and removes constraints) and Warranty, fitness for use (capacity, availability) IT function should always underpin long-term goals & mission. IT supports business and is adequate to real market needs To be defined in line with business strategy: 1. Top-Down, reflection of the whole company 2. Bottom-Up, functional contribution to the strategy 3. Exploiting capabilities of all resources 4. Translating market requirements into decisions!

Employee satisfaction better, a stronger physiological contract Process improvements and achieving Business as Usual. RACI & Process Owners act as Champions aim for new goals. Document Management becomes easy and consistent Expected results are known to business (SLAs, SLRs, UCs). Transparency and clearly defined Roles & Responsibilities.

Operations, processes, and delivery activities must be defined and implemented in line with a chosen methodology. Service Champions are responsible for service definition and its delivery, company effectiveness and efficiency.
