ITIL Service Operation 2011 Edition (Best Management Practice)
The revisions have streamlined the ST book and better integrated it into the other books in the service lifecycle. Diagrams are now better drawn and better described in corresponding text... On balance, I believe this revision will improve the overall readability of the ITIL library. Claudia Tropp, Technology Partners International, Inc. --Best Management Pratice More readable, more useable. Many confusing aspects of Service Transition have been well and truly 'nailed'. The demystifying of the SKMS, CMS, CMDB maelstrom is particularly helpful. Barry Corless, Global Knowledge --Best Management Pratice There is an extensive increase in synergy across chapters [in ITIL Service Transition] making it easier for the reader to locate like-for-like content across the process areas covered. The latest revisions also provide more practical application and align more closely to real-world experience than ever before; and yet they manage to maintain their flexibility in providing a standard framework which can be adopted and adapted by organizations large or small. A great improvement! Zoe Lambert, HP --Best Management PraticeMore readable, more useable. Many confusing aspects of Service Transition have been well and truly 'nailed'.
