About ITIL Overview
  • Developed in late 1980s in the UK in response to
    growing dependence on IT
  • Now a public body of knowledge for Service
    Management best practices
  • Helps organizations improve service levels and
    reduce the cost of IT operations
  • A framework, defining ten interlocking processes
    for service support and service delivery
  • Also provides guidance on IT security, business
    management, and other topics
  • The ten ITIL processes are described in two
    volumes
  • - Service Support focuses on management of
    essential operational processes
  • - Service Delivery on strategic management of the
    IT services

ITIL V3 Were Gonna Need a Bigger Boat
  • The ITIL v3 refresh project is expected to begin
    with the publication of five new core texts with
    publication planned for May 2007.
  • A key change to ITIL under version 3 has been a
    focus on the alignment of IT and 'the business'
    and on the management of IT throughout the
    complete lifecycle.
  • ITIL v3 core volumes
  • Service Strategy
  • Service Design
  • Service Transition
  • Service Operation
  • Continual Service Improvement
  • ITIL v3 complementary material
  • While the new ITIL core will draw heavily on
    current industry practice in IT service
    management and relevant research. It will reflect
    the major changes in the way businesses buy and
    utilize IT services. The complementary material
    will make it easier for ITIL to address specific
    vertical markets and industries (e.g. Public
    Sector, Financial Services) and will provide a
    venue for more rapidly changing guidance around
    the application and implementation of the best
    practice described in the core works.
  • It is likely that the complimentary material will
    include both a detailed glossary, process maps
    and mappings to governance and other frameworks
    (e.g. COBIT) and methodologies (e.g. Six Sigma).

Putting ITIL into Action at NYU
  • The alignment of IT and business, mapping product
    and service delivery to institutional planning
    and identified needs, is strongly emphasized in
    the ITIL framework.
  • Over the course of the last three years, ITS has
    provided ITIL Essentials Training or workshops to
    more than 70 staff members of our staff. In
    addition, staff members take advantage of tuition
    remission and workshop offerings in project
    management, service delivery and communication.
  • ITS has been leveraging ITILs Best Practices for
    internal communication and project planning.
  • ITS is committed to long term strategic and
    tactical partnerships with ITS service partners
    and academic and operational units. These
    includes areas directly recommended by ITIL best
    practices, such as the strengthening of service
    delivery, service support, and continuity and
    availability management.

ITIL ITS Next Steps, Lessons Learned
  • Process enhancement is incremental - take the
    long look
  • Use the framework to connect the dots of
    initiatives and build a portfolio
  • Change is coming to ITIL prepare for ITIL v3.
  • Integrate support planning earlier in our product
    and service development cycles, so that the
    products we release are easier to use and
    support.
  • Ask your client communities what will support
    their business and leverage ITIL to map your
    initiatives
  • Resource limitations will impact your timelines
  • Make noticeable improvements in procedures people
    have to follow to get ITS services.
  • Mitigate the impact of service disruptions by
    using innovative notification approaches.
  • Work with other help-providing groups at NYU to
    coordinate services more effectively.
  • Intensify our use of metrics in driving
    improvements and of the Remedy trouble ticket
    system to track problems, identify trends, and
    evaluate the effects of improvement measures
    introduced.
