In short

ISO 20000-1 certification in Davao City at a glance

Behind every outsourced desk in Davao City is a promise measured in response times. Teams at Abreeza BPO and similar offices handle incidents, requests and changes for clients elsewhere, and the clients want to know that the process behind the promise is controlled. ISO/IEC 20000-1 describes a service management system: a service catalogue, agreed service levels, incident and problem handling, change and release control, capacity, continuity and supplier management, all reviewed regularly. Universities and larger employers with internal IT desks can use it as a blueprint. Sterling maps current practice from its Manila office, holds the records and reviews in Effivity, and an accredited certification body audits and issues the certificate.

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 Davao City: questions clients ask

Who in Davao City runs services that fit ISO/IEC 20000-1?

BPO and IT support teams such as those in Ayala Land's Abreeza BPO offices, and the IT units of larger employers like universities. Anyone running a service desk, change process and service-level reporting for others can use it. A certificate is mostly requested by clients when contracts are tendered.

Can a Davao team combine ISO/IEC 20000-1 with ISO 9001?

Yes, because both use the same high-level management-system structure, so policy, internal audit and management review can be shared. ISO 9001 is general, while ISO/IEC 20000-1 adds the service-management processes. Many Davao teams begin with ISO 9001 and extend when a service contract demands it.
