INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICE MANAGEMENT
(ISO 20000:2018)

WHAT IS THE IT SERVICE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (ISO/IEC 20000)?

ISO/IEC 20000 is a globally recognized standard for IT Service Management (ITSM), designed for organizations of all sizes that provide or manage IT services. It offers a structured framework to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve a Service Management System (SMS), ensuring consistent delivery of high-quality IT services aligned with business needs. Based on industry best practices, including alignment with the ITIL framework, ISO/IEC 20000 helps organizations enhance service quality, increase customer satisfaction, and improve efficiency through a process-driven and customer-focused approach.

The latest version of the standard emphasizes risk-based thinking and proactive performance management to identify and address potential issues before they impact service quality. It promotes continual improvement, objective performance measurement, and value delivery. Structured according to ISO’s High Level Structure (HLS), ISO/IEC 20000 is designed for easy integration with other management systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 27001 and ISO 22301, allowing organizations to adopt a unified, strategic approach to operational excellence and regulatory compliance.
