Guiding Principles
• Recommendations that guide
an organization and its
people on how to work
flexibly in all circumstances
Governance
• The means by which an
organization is directed and
controlled
The Service Value Chain
• An operating model which outlines the
key activities required to respond to
demand and facilitate value creation
through the creation and management
of products and services
Practices
• Sets of organizational resources
designed for performing work or
accomplishing an objective,
including process and capabilities
Continual Improvement
• A recurring organizational
activity performed at all
levels to ensure that an
organization’s performance
continually improves in
meeting stakeholders’
expectations

1. Organizations and
People
• To ensure a shred understanding
of the vision, current status and
improvement direction for all
four dimensions and all products
and services across the
organization
2. Information and
Technology
organization
3. Partner and Suppliers
• To ensure a shred
understanding of the vision,
current status and
four dimensions and all
products and services across the
organization
4. Value Streams and
Processes
organization
Continual Improvement
• This dimension covers contracts and other agreements between the organization and its partners.
• Relationships between organizations with regards to service design and provisioning can often be complex in nature and may involve
different levels of integration and formality. Some partners and suppliers will be mission critical and require more intense management
and engagement, others may be more commodity or point of time base and require less rigour.

PLAN - Purpose
organization
IMPROVE - Purpose
• To ensure continual
improvement of products,
services and practices across all
value chain activities and the
four dimensions of service
management
ENGAGE - Purpose
• To provide a good understanding
of stakeholder needs, continual
engagement with all stakeholders,
transparency and good
relationships with all
stakeholders
DESIGN AND TRANSITION
– Purpose
• To ensure that products and
services continually meet
stakeholder expectations for
quality, costs and time to market
OBTAIN/BUILD – Purpose
• To ensure that service components are
available when and where they are needed,
and meet agreed specifications
DELIVER AND SUPPORT – Purpose
• To ensure that services are delivered and
supported according to agreed specifications
and stakeholders’ expectations

A guiding principle is a recommendation that guides an
organization in ALL circumstances regardless of
changes in its goals, strategies, types of work or
management structure. A guiding principle is universal
and enduring.
Guiding principles support success actions and good
decisions of all types and at all levels of the
organization, these principles are reflected in Lean,
DevOps, Agile, etc and allow for interaction and
integration of multiple methods into a consolidated
approach to service management.

1. Focus on Value
2. Start where you are
3. Progress iteratively with feedback
4. Collaborate and promote visibility
5. Think and work holistically
6. Keep it simple and practical
7. Optimise and automate

1. Focus on Value
a) Everything an organization does needs to link back to value, this value should be clear
for providers, customers and stakeholders. To enable a focus on value the organization
has to identify who is receiving services and how they will receive and measure value
through the services being delivered.
b) There are 4 key characteristics of value that an organization must understand:
i. It is defined by the customer
ii. It changes over time and circumstance
iii. There must be an affordable mix of features
iv. There must be an achievement of objective
c) The service provider needs to know what is of value to the consumer(s)
i. Why consumers use the services
ii. What the services help them to do
iii. How the services help them to meet their goals
iv. The risks involved for the consumer
v. The role of cost/financial consequences to the customer

2. Start where you are
a) This guiding principle encourages the organization to avoid “re-inventing the wheel”
and starting over without first considering what is already available (the current
state) and can be leveraged.
b) Starting where you are can avoid unnecessary cost and shorten the time to value
realisation for the customer.
c) When assessing current state care should be given to ensure reports match the reality,
measurements should be used in live with existing data to give a true picture of
performance and capability.

3. Progress iteratively with feedback
a) This guiding principle has its roots in an agile approach to ITSM, it is
based on resisting the temptation to do everything at once and rather
taking the approach to organise work into smaller manageable sections,
the focus on each effort will be sharper and easier to maintain,
improvements should be implemented as sequential or simultaneous.
The propose of this guiding principle is to ensure value can be delivered
quickly and when and where it is needed.
b) Feedback should be sought and used before, throughout and after each iteration, it
helps participants to understand where their work comes from, outputs go and how
their actions affect the outcomes.
c) A good approach to adopting this guiding principle is the use of feedback loops, they
aid:
i. End user and customer perception of the value created
ii. The efficiency and effectiveness of the value chain activities
iii. The demand for products and services

4. Collaborate and promote visibility
a) This guiding principle is essentially about breakdown silos within organizations and promoting
effective collaboration. This comes from the ethos that inclusion is generally better than exclusion
and collaboration with cooperation is better than isolated work. Collaboration should have no
limits to its scope all stakeholders should be encouraged to engage regularly and effectively.
b) Recognition of the need for genuine collaboration has been one of the driving factors in the
evolution of what is now known as DevOps. Without effective collaboration, neither Agile, Lean,
nor any other ITSM framework or method will work.
c) Collaboration and visibility promote:
i. •Shared goals
ii. •Trust • End user and customer perception of the value created
iii. The efficiency and effectiveness of the value chain activities
iv. The demand for products and services
v. Improved decision making
vi. Increased chances of success
vii. A clear understanding of the way forward
viii. Alignment will be kept as work progresses

5. Think and work holistically
a) This guiding principle in based in the fundamental understanding that no service, process,
department or supplier stands alone, all services must be delivered through the capabilities
enabled within the 4 dimensions of service management.
b) Taking a holistic approach enables an understanding of how all parts of the organization work
together in an integrated way, it recognises that systems may be complex and as such need to
not only deliver to detail but never lose site of the complete picture.
c) Collaboration is key to thinking and working holistically, the service provider will need to draw
on knowledge in every area to identify what is essential for success.
d) “Holistic” – Dealing with or treating the whole of something and not just a part. It suggests
some simple rules to follow to enable the principle:
i. Ensure value – Every activity should contribute to the creation of value
ii. • Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication –it may seem harder to simplify but it is often more effective
iii. • Do fewer things but do them better – allows focus on quality
iv. • Respect the time for the people involve
v. • Avoid bureaucracy
vi. • Easier to understand, more likely to adopt

6. Keep it simple and practical
a) This guiding principle suggests that an effective approach to
ITSM is to use the minimum number of steps and avoid over
complication.
b) Keeping it simple and practical is the best route to achieving
quick wins.
c) Documents that are simple can be significantly more effective
in communication than large detailed volumes. Processes that
are simple will have a better chance of being seen, understood
and observed.

7. Optimise and automate
a) This guiding principle is key to effectiveness and efficiency. Automation
frees up expensive human resources and enables them to concentrate
on more human intensive areas and the overall customer experience.
b) “Optimisation” - To make something as effective and useful as it needs to
be
c) “Automation” - Typically refers to the use of technology to perform a step
or series of steps correctly and consistently with limited or no human
intervention
d) To enable success in adoption of this guiding principle, organizations
should:
i. Optimise before automating
ii. Define relevant metrics intended and actual results should be evaluated, metrics
should be outcome based and focused on value
iii. Eliminate anything that is truly wasteful and use technology to achieve whatever it
is capable of
