If you want to provide the highest standards of internal or outsourced IT Service Management (ITSM), you need ISO 20000 certification. This international standard is already widely recognised by the IT industry as evidence of excellence in all areas of IT service provision. Following the ISO 20000 framework will give you a competitive advantage by ensuring your ITSM services are robust, efficient and responsive.
ISO 20000 is a framework for businesses wanting to implement a service management system (SMS) and then monitor, review, maintain and improve upon it.
The standard allows businesses to document the design, transition, delivery and improvement of their services and evaluate whether those services are meeting their objectives.
ISO 20000 is especially relevant for business that are seeking assurance that their service requirements will be fulfilled or are looking to establish a consistent approach across its business and supply chain.

The ISO 20000 standard uses a structure of 9 clauses which, roughly grouped together, cover four key areas:
Service Management – the processes your business must follow to run a successful IT Service Management System and ensure your IT service provision is integrated. Unlike the other sections, not all areas will be applicable to your business
Issue Resolution – how your business plans to report on, restore and prevent issues that prevent the delivery of your services
Change Management – details on how your business handles changes, both in terms of processes and new or changed services
Management Responsibility and Resource Management – the areas where your management team need to focus on, be involved with and be accountable for. This also includes how resources such as people, infrastructure and facilities must be assigned to ensure the best possible performance
