Utility (fitness for purpose)
Its the attribute (features/ functionality) of the service that have a positive effect on the performance of activities, tasks, and objects with specific result. Utility stands for the increase of a possible profit

Warranty (fitness for use)


Availability and Reliability in continuity and security It stands for decline in possible losses

VALUE FOR SERVICES


Introduction Concept Lifecycle Models Q&A

OUTCOME OF SERVICE
Introduction Concept Lifecycle Models Q&A

Service facilitates outcomes by having a positive effect on activities and tasks to create conditions for better performance. As a result the probability of the desired outcome increases. The outcome can be categorized as under: Enhanced Capabilities Increased performance Enhanced Resources Reduced Cost Reduced Risk

FUNCTIONS, ROLES AND PROCESSES


Introduction Concept Lifecycle Models Q&A

Function:
A team of group of people and the tools they use to carry out one or more processes or activities. * Provide structure and stability to organization

Are self contained units of organization having their own resources and capabilities.
Rely on processes for cross-functional coordination Can result in functional Silos if there is an inward focus or lack of coordination.

Role:
A set of responsibilities, activities and authorities granted to a person or team.

Process:
A set of activities designed to accomplish a specific objective. A process takes defined inputs and turns them into defined outputs. A process may include roles, responsibilities, tools and management controls required to deliver the outputs. It is measurable and Close Looped Systems It delivers specific results Primary results are delivered to customers or stakeholders

RACI MODEL
Introduction Concept Lifecycle Models Q&A

A RACI model can be used to help define roles and responsibilities.

It identifies the activities that must be performed alongside the various individuals and roles involved.

RACI is an acronym for the four main roles of: Responsible The person or people responsible for getting the
job done.

Accountable Only one person can be accountable for each task. Consulted The people who are consulted and whose opinions
are sought.

Informed The people who are kept up-to-date on progress.

BUILDING A RACI MODEL


Introduction Concept Lifecycle Models Q&A

To build a RACI chart the following steps are required:


Identify the activities / Processes. Identify / define the functional roles. Conduct meetings and assign the RACI codes Identify any gaps or overlaps for example, where there are two As or no Rs Distribute the chart and incorporate feedback Ensure that the allocations are being followed

Potential problems with the RACI model:


Having more than one person accountable for a process means that in practice no one is accountable. Delegation of responsibility or accountability without necessary authority. Focus on matching processes and activities with departments. Incorrect division / combination of functions; conflicting agendas or goals. Combination of responsibility for closely related processes.

PROCESS AND SERVICE OWNER


Introduction Concept Lifecycle Models Q&A

Process Owner
The Process Owner Responsible for: Assisting with Process Design Documenting the Process Making sure the process is being performed as documented Making sure the process meets its aims Monitoring and improving the process over time

Service Owner

SUPPLIERS AND CONTRACTS

Contract
A legally binding agreement between two or more parties to supply goods or services Contracts may include number of other related documents and schedules, for example: - Security requirements - Business continuity requirements - Mandated technical standards - Migration plans (if agreed pre-scheduled change) - Disclosure agreements.

What is Governance?
Introduction Concept Lifecycle Models Q&A

IT Governance is defined as:

Specifying the framework for decision rights and accountabilities to encourage desirable behavior in the use of IT
Center for Information System Research, Sloan School of Management MIT: Peter Weill

It is driven by the need for closer interaction and involvement with stakeholders. basically integrating the three "C's" : Cooperation, Consensus and Community, into the model
IT Governance is not about the specific decisions made, but rather about determining who makes each type of decision, who has input into the decision, and how one is held accountable for their role
