In short

ISO 20000-1 certification in Eindhoven at a glance

A hardware prototype can be shipped once; a hosted service must be dependable every day. Eindhoven's Software & AI cluster, the managed IT behind a campus of hundreds of companies, and the support teams of scale-ups all operate in that second world, and customers ask how it is managed. ISO 20000-1 is the standard for an IT service management system. It requires a service catalogue, service level management, incident and problem handling, change and release control, capacity and availability planning, supplier management and continual improvement, audited by an accredited certification body. Sterling serves Eindhoven from Enschede and designs the processes around the way your service desk really works.

Requirements

What ISO 20000-1 requires

Strip away the vocabulary and ISO/IEC 20000-1 requires a company to prove six things about how it plans and delivers IT services.

Services are defined and agreedA service catalogue and service-level agreements state what you deliver and to what standard.
Management owns the service systemTop management sets the service management policy and objectives and provides the people and tools to meet them.
Changes and releases are controlledChanges, releases and deployments are assessed, approved and tracked so live services stay stable.
Incidents and problems are resolvedIncidents and requests are handled to agreed targets, and recurring problems are traced back to their cause.
Capacity, continuity and security are plannedCapacity, availability, continuity and information security are planned so agreed service commitments can be met.
Suppliers and performance are reviewedSuppliers and internal teams are managed against agreements, performance is reported, and the system is audited and reviewed.

ISO 20000-1 in Eindhoven: questions clients ask

Who asks Eindhoven IT providers for ISO 20000-1?

Large customers outsourcing IT operations, public bodies and enterprise buyers that want evidence of controlled service delivery. The request normally appears in a tender or service contract. The certificate shows a managed service system; it does not rate any individual technology or product.

Does ISO 20000-1 suit a software scale-up in Brainport?

It can, once customers depend on the service as an operation, not only as a product. The standard covers service levels, incident and problem management, change control and capacity planning. A scale-up often adds it after ISO 27001, reusing shared processes such as change and supplier management.
