ISO/IEC 20000-3 2012 Standard

Description

ISO/IEC 20000-3:2012 Information technology – Service management - Part 3: Guidance on Scope definition and applicability of ISO/IEC 20000-1.

Service providers can provide a range of services to several different types of customers, and can also depend on a complex supply chain for the delivery of services. With service management processes therefore crossing many organizational, legal, and national boundaries as well as different time zones, the application of scope can be a complex stage in the service provider's use of ISO 20000-1. ISO 20000-3 will assist with this endeavour.
