Process Description

Service Catalogue Management ITIL

Service Catalogue Direction was added as a new procedure in ITIL V3.

In the previous ITIL version, the Service Level Direction process mentioned the concept of a Service Catalogue.

ITIL V3 takes this concept further, introducing a dedicated process to ensure that the Service Catalogue is up-to-date and contains reliable information.

A clear distinction exists between Business Services in the Service Catalogue (services visible to the client, divers by SLAs) and Supporting Services (services visible only inside the It organization, defined past OLAs or UCs).

In ITIL 2011 the procedure interfaces have been adjusted slightly post-obit the introduction of the Design Coordination process. The procedure overview of Service Catalogue Management (.JPG) shows the central information flows (see fig. 1).

ITIL 4 refers to 'Service Catalogue Direction' every bit a service management practise.
