Executing integratedITSM: Bridging Theory and Real-World Application
Are you tired of ITSM theories and models that fail to translate into tangible results? If so, you're not alone.
Stop Spinning Your Wheels!
The landscape of ITSM is cluttered with numerous frameworks. While most, including ITIL®, provide high-level principles and strategic guidance, they often lack the practical insights necessary for executing an ‘integrated’ IT service management strategy.
That’s why many IT practitioners are turning to integratedITSM as an alternative or add-on to ITIL – to fill the many missing gaps.
PDC’s book, Executing integratedITSM, effectively offers far more actionable advice and real-world instruction compared to other industry publications, such as ITIL® How to Implement by PeopleCert.
Executing integratedITSM is one of five integral components in the Body of Knowledge (BoK) for PDC’s integratedITSM certification and designation scheme, which features ten certifications, and six designations aimed at significantly enhancing your ITSM capabilities.
What Makes Executing integratedITSM Unique?
With substantial input from Pink Elephant’s highly seasoned consultants, and close to 400 pages, this book dives deep into the intricacies of how your ITSM processes interconnect. Covering areas from business relationship management to incident, problem, change management and beyond, the content illustrates how to achieve seamless integration, maximizing both efficiency and business value.
You will be guided through the use of nine foundational building blocks, designed to streamline and successfully manage 14 distinct ITSM processes. These building blocks are versatile enough to be applied to the design and ongoing management of any process. While the book provides a comprehensive introduction to the integratedITSM model and its overarching strategy, it primarily focuses on delivering practical and actionable advice you can start implementing immediately – a perfect blend of theory and hands-on guidance.

This book presents an unparalleled level of detail and step-by-step execution guidance seldom found elsewhere. By going beyond traditional industry and ITIL resources, it provides the practical tools necessary to align ITSM with overarching business goals. Don’t let your IT operations devolve into a series of disconnected activities; instead, learn how to execute a truly integrated ITSM system that drives consistent business value-added outcomes.
