CSA ISO/IEC TS 20000-5:25

CSA Preface Standards development within the Information Technology sector is harmonized with international standards development. Through the CSA Technical Committee on Information Technology (TCIT), Canadians serve as the SCC Mirror Committee (SMC) on ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 on Information Technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) for the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), the ISO member body for Canada and sponsor of the Canadian National Committee of the IEC. For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as "CSA ISO/IEC TS 20000-5" throughout. The International Standard was reviewed by the CSA TCIT under the jurisdiction of the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Information and Communications Technology and deemed acceptable for use in Canada. This Standard has been formally approved, without modification, by the Technical Committee and has been developed in compliance with Standards Council of Canada requirements for National Standards of Canada. It has been published as a National Standard of Canada by CSA Group. Scope This document provides guidance for organizations on how to implement a service management system (SMS). Organizations can use this document to implement the entire SMS in order to conform to the requirements specified in ISO/IEC 20000-1, or parts of an SMS for a selected subset of requirements. This document illustrates a generic plan to manage implementation activities for an SMS. The intended users of this document are: a) organizations that require support on how to implement an SMS; b) consultants and advisors who support an organization during SMS implementation. This document can be used together with the other parts of ISO/IEC 20000 series.
