IT Service Management requires the correct integration of three factors: people, processes
and technology.1
IT service providers can no longer maintain their focus on technology and their own
organizations, now they have to consider the quality of the services they provide and focus
on their relationships with customers2
Usually the management of IT services involves the use of outsourcings, insourcing’s and
shared services. It is extremely important to maintain a broad knowledge base within the
organization for these practices to be successful.
The objectives of good IT service management must be:
1. Provide an adequate quality management.
2. Increase efficiency
3. Align business processes and IT infrastructure.
4. Reduce the risks associated with IT Services.
5. Generate business
Today's organizations make significant investments in information technology resources to
support business processes. The significant and relevant value that the use of the
information has for the organizations, determines that all the processes related to the
production, administration and use of Information Technology (IT) services must be
optimally managed and controlled to ensure the quality of the information. Information,
support for compliance with business objectives.
The data and information processes resulting from the operations and business processes
require the application of control techniques and measures within the framework of a
management system that guarantees the provision of services and the reduction of
vulnerability to risk generating threats that jeopardize the stability of the operational,
organizational and macro system of the business. All of the above justifies the need to
optimize IT resources in support and alignment with business objectives through effective
processes of "IT Service Management".

In organizations there is an IT organization that generates and provides IT services and a
group of internal (users) and external clients that demand these services and expect their
timely and quality delivery. The relationships and communications between the IT provider
and the IT clients must be channeled through a system that guarantees the optimization of
the delivery and service support processes through the consolidation of IT Service
Management.
Investments in the IT infrastructure and in the information assets of the organizations are
increasingly important, which justifies the implementation of systems that ensure the
performance of the processes based on IT services to ensure the reduction of the total cost
of ownership (TCO) and a reasonable return on investment (ROI). So far, only some high-
level and large companies have assumed and incorporated into their organization culture
and business plans, the IT Service Management processes based on best practices of
international acceptance.
This new paradigm based on the service must have an approach to organizations of any
size, companies must adopt and adapt these best practices under a "Quality of Service"
approach and opportunity to change the business with the application of updated standards.
This paradigm is based on the continuous improvement of the IT Service Culture.
The products and services of these frames of reference are oriented to the implementation
of consolidated systems of continuous improvement in the management of information
technology service in alignment with the business objectives, from end to end from the
diagnostic and planning phases to the implantation, monitoring, supervision and
optimization. The trend of IT Service Management is based on the promotion and
application support of best practices, reference frameworks and international acceptance
standards, such as ISO / IEC 20000, ITIL, ITSCMM, COBIT, MOF, ISO / IEC -17799 -
2700X and others.

It must respond to the fulfillment of its mission and vision, as supreme objectives of this,
since the information systems interact directly with the environment of the organization,
since the elements of the environment that affect the system constitute an input and all
result of the system towards your environment is a way out. Similarly, feedback is a key
element for the development and strengthening of the organization. The feedback allows us
to know the impact of the services and products, which will serve as outputs in the
environment and promotes the redesign of the system based on the satisfaction of the needs
of the users / customers that will form inputs.
