ITIL Guiding Principles

29
Q

Everything the organization does, should link back, directly or indirectly, to value for itself, its customers and other stakeholders. Think for a moment about your own organization. What is the value required by the organization?

A

Focus on Value

30
Q

It can be tempting to simply remove all existing approaches and introduce something completely new when trying to make improvements. This is rarely useful or sensible, as it can generate a lot of waste in terms of time, effort, skills, processes and tools which could be reused effectively. It is very rare that old practices have nothing at all that can be reused. Careful consideration should be given to any existing resources and capabilities, and to make the best use of these going forward.

A

Start where you are

31
Q

A feedback loop is a term commonly used to refer to a situation where part of the output of an activity is used for a new input. Where best practice is in use, feedback will be actively collected across the value chain, and this will enable understanding of:
• End user and customer perception of the value created
• The efficiency and effectiveness of value chain activities
• The effectiveness of service governance as well as management controls
• The interfaces between the organization and its partner and supplier network, and
• The demand for products and services
Once received, feedback can be analyzed to identify improvement opportunities, risks and issues.

A

Progress Interactively with Feedback

32
Q

Using the guiding principle of ‘think and work holistically’, as well as ‘collaborate’ and ‘promote’ visibility, will help breakdown silos, and ensure better end to end provision of services across the whole organization.

A

Collaborate and Promote visibility

33
Q

No department, service, process or supplier stands alone. Any output that is delivered to organizational stakeholders, such as customers or other stakeholders, will be impacted if it does not work in the integrated approach. All activities should focus on value.

A

Think and Work Holistically

34
Q

This principle may seem obvious, but it is important to always use the minimum number of steps needed to accomplish an objective. If a process, service, action or metric provides no value or produces no useful outcome, then eliminate it. In order to deliver valuable outcomes, outcome-based thinking should be used to produce practical solutions.
“Always ask, does this contribute to value creation, when analyzing a practice, process, service, metric or other improvement target.”

A

Keep it simple and Practical

35
Q
