They must enhance competitiveness actively and create competitive advantage. “IT” is not only an integral part of companies’ operation, but can enhance the competitiveness of the organization. However in the limited time and costs, how to align IT and business objectives is a critical question. Due to this situation, therefore, these companies raise the idea of implementing IT service management. By implementing ITIL, they hope it could solve IT problems and IT department can manage IT resource efficiently to deliver IT service to other departments. Furthermore, they can prove their value to the whole organization. But before implementing ITIL, many companies haven’t assessed their own IT status and figured out their readiness of ITIL. If so, during implementing ITIL they would face many obstacles, and would finally not show the benefit of implementing ITIL.
Based on the global IT service management standard “ISO 20000”, this research develops a readiness scale that could measure companies’ readiness of implementing IT service management. According to the readiness scale and its result, companies could know their IT status well and acquire the decision information that how to implement ITIL and apply for ISO 20000 certification or not.
The study also compared the readiness scale and its result with other noted standards like CMMI, e-Business Assessment Scheme for Enterprise (e-BASE) and National Quality Award. Accordingly, companies could understand the similarities and dissimilarities between ISO 20000 and above famed standards. So that they could understand their IT service management readiness further.
Finally the study recommended that before these companies implement IT service management, the first thing they should do is to assess their own readiness. By assessing and analyzing the IT status, so that they could know the compliance of ISO 20000, and find out their own improved direction of implementing IT service management. Companies should establish the whole IT service management system and the PDCA Management Cycle hence the quality of IT service could be improved continually.
