IT Service Management (ITSM) is a set of end-to-end best practices - processes, procedures, governance, and improvement – to help you manage the delivery of IT services to your clients. ITSM frameworks like ITIL 4 and FitSM provide a flexible foundation for managing IT risks and optimizing customer experiences while driving significant ROI to the business.
"77% of IT professionals say effective IT service management is integral to digital transformation success."
