In VeriSM, the entire organization is the service provider and all the various departments within the organization are its capabilities. Each capability has a role in the delivery of service to the consumer. VeriSM is based on enterprise governance and its associated principles. Defining these provides the necessary guardrails for the capabilities in how they react to their organizational portfolio (the various products and services) and consumers. Introducing the Management MeshThe Management Mesh is the core to the VeriSM Approach. It allows organizations to map their resources, environment, management methods and emerging technologies to allow them to make the best decisions in how to address consumer requirements. These four-parts take into account organizational governance and principles as it assesses the organizations capabilities and requirements. It is the critical point of VeriSM. It is what makes VeriSM different. VeriSM is not a competitor to ITIL, Agile, DevOps, COIT or any of the ISO Standards. The mesh is what enables the organization to determine which of those frameworks, methods and governance approaches need to be used. The Management Mesh is what enables organizations to take an organizational wide approach on delivering services to the consumer. VeriSM is about changing the mindset of the organization to understand that the entire organization is the service provider. VeriSM Embraces and Enhances DigitalDigital transformation and digital disruption are key elements in today's service industry. Digital transformation addresses the organizations who apply digital technologies to current working practices, products or services allowing them to enter into new markets and deliver those products and services faster. Digital disruption is where digital technologies have been applied to radically change an industry - think about taxis and Uber, hotels and Airbnb and others. In either case, Service Management needs to embrace, support and incorporate these transformative practices in their management system. VeriSM defines that path. Who is VeriSM Designed For?VeriSM training and certification is designed for the service management organization - every department, every team, everyone. Everyone has an input to the products and services of an organization. This training is especially useful to those who will be involved in the digital transformation efforts but again, all professionals and organizations involved in delivering value to customers through the development, delivery, operation and/or promotion of services will benefit. How VeriSM Certification Will Benefit You and Your OrganizationAs VeriSM applies across the entire organization, the Foundation course provides the fundamentals of Service Management as well as the key concepts around digitizing Service Management.
