Business Service Management - Business Services and IT Services

Business Services and IT Services

Business Services are delivered to customers, supporting their needs, sometimes through the support for a business process or directly supporting a service or product delivered to end customers. A business service may be supported by one or more IT Service(s), and may consist almost entirely of IT Services especially where the IT Service is directly customer-facing. Examples include online banking and online shopping.

An IT Service may not be customer-facing, for example an IT Service which is seen as 'back office' as it supports the execution of an internal business process, such as the support for a billing process which the Finance department would own and manage.

Famous quotes containing the words business and/or services:

    I am succeeding very well so far with my legging, but it is a very mean business for a man that has been well brought up to engage in. It is the only way to get a bill from Cincinnati through, so it must be done.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Civil servants and priests, soldiers and ballet-dancers, schoolmasters and police constables, Greek museums and Gothic steeples, civil list and services list—the common seed within which all these fabulous beings slumber in embryo is taxation.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)
