Best Practices In Problem Management

by Jean-Pierre Garbani

with Laura Koetzle, Stephan Wenninger


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

IT's value to the business must be expressed in terms of its reduction of operational risks, not in terms of its functional advantages. This risk management approach to IT requires strong emphasis on IT service delivery. IT operations organizations must focus on rapidly restoring IT services after they've resolved problems. To do this, firms must build robust problem management, with equal attention to problem management's processes, people, and technology product components.
