What is ISO/IEC 20000-1?
Published initially in 2005 and subsequently updated in 2011 and 2018, ISO/IEC 20000-1 is a Type A management system standard that sets out the minimum requirements for an organisation to establish, implement, maintain, and continually improve a service management system (SMS).
An SMS consists of policies, processes, resources, objectives, and documented information that are put together and are coordinated to achieve the objectives of the organisation. An effective SMS enables organisations to direct and control their service management activities, identify and mitigate risks related to their activities, and identify and realize opportunities that improve service provision.
The requirements of ISO/IEC 20000-1 are generic and applicable to organisations of all sizes, sectors, and complexities. According to ISO Survey 2020, there are more than 7,500 certificates issued to organizations worldwide. Contrary to the common misperception that this standard is only applicable to IT infrastructure, ISO/IEC 20000-1 can be used for various other services, including, finance, cloud, business process outsourcing, etc.
