Session Description
Defining and valuing services are the first two steps in ITIL v3 strategy generation, as well as the first
steps in the service portfolio process. You simply cannot adopt ITIL or IT service management without
defining and valuing your services. The problem is that ITIL does not tell you how to do this. There is a
hint, however, in the complementary guidance buried deep within ITIL. Join Hank to uncover the secrets
to IT service definition and learn how to define IT services in hours instead of weeks. Also learn an easyto-understand method for valuing services that improves business IT alignment.
Key Takeaways:
- Figure out where to start IT service definition (it’s probably not where you thought)
- Understand how to define IT services in business terms
- Learn the secrets of IT service definition, including customer- and resource-facing services
and resources
- Get going with service catalog development and service portfolio management in just a few hours
- Understand where IT service value originates (it may not be where you think)
- Learn the secret of IT value creation (business value at risk and the marketplace)
- Determine how to prioritize your IT activities based on service value

Ability to Acquire the Service
Rule #2
Can it be Specified by Customer/End‐

Can it be Acquired by Itself?
Then it’s probably a CFS

– Can
Can’tt be acquired by itself
be acquired by itself
– Composed of Resources not Services
