End-to-end ITIL® Implementation
The focus of IT management has been changing for some time and in the future management will be even less focussed on technology and still more integrated with the overall needs of the business management and processes. These new systems and processes are already starting to evolve and will continue to evolve over the next few years. This development will accelerate, as the management standards for the exchange of management information between tools become more fully defined. In essence, management systems will become:
-
More focussed on business needs
-
More closely aligned to business processes
-
Less dependent on specific technology and more “service centric”
-
More integrated with other management tools and processes as the management standards evolve.
QAI provides facilitation, guidance and support for an organization-wide deployment of ITIL® 'Best Practices'.
We facilitate adoption of practices and architectures that are focussed on business needs and business processes. The OGC’s ITIL® framework gives a sound basis for achieving all of this once management tools and interfaces evolve to fully support them.
The “big picture” of how all of these areas and processes together provide, “joined up”, “end-to-end” Service Management is illustrated in following Figure

ISO 20000 (erstwhile BS 15000) Certification Consulting
Derived from ITIL®, the ISO 20000 (erstwhile BS 15000) standard describes an integrated set of management processes and a recognized, tried and tested management system which allows an IT service organization to plan, manage, deliver, monitor, report, review and improve its services and ensures effective delivery of services to the business and its customers.
QAI provides end-to-end handholding, guidance, and facilitation through periodic consulting for achieving the ISO 20000 (erstwhile BS 15000) certification. QAI's ITIL® and ISO 20000 (erstwhile BS 15000) implementation methodology focuses on robust implementation and institutionalization of ITIL® best practices and processes that deliver value to your business, rather than just achieving the minimum certification criteria of ISO 20000 (erstwhile BS 15000) and getting certified. |

IT organizations constantly struggle to ensure that their IT services are value-added and meet the needs of the business in a cost-effective manner.
