Ili ITIL Countinual Service Improvement (CSI).
Položila sam ITIL SOA 😉 (38/40 poena!!!!!), pa sad idem dalje, i naravno javljaju se novi pojmovi (srećom nema ih baš toliko mnogo).
******************
Service dashboard – A graphical representation of overall IT service performance and availability. Gives data in real time.
The balanced scorecard is a strategic planning and management system that is used extensively in business and industry, government, and nonprofit organizations worldwide to align business activities to the vision and strategy of the organization, improve internal and external communications, and monitor organization performance against strategic goals.
******************
A ovo se javlja STALNO, i treba ga ukucati u glavu :
Process : a structured set of activities designed to accomplish a specific objective. A process takes one or more defined inputs and turns them into defined outputs.
******************
Organizational culture : a set of shared values and norms that control the service provider`s interaction with stakeholders (customers, users, suppliers, staff etc).
I nešto što mi i pored definicija nije baš najjasnije :
Governance – the single overarching area that ties IT and the business together.
Governance is what defines the common directions, policies and rules that both the business and IT use to conduct business.
Governance ensures that policies and strategy are actually implemented, and that required processes are correctly followed.
A system – is a number of related things that work together to achieve an overall objective.
Key components of the system are the structure and processes that work together.
IT governance – a part of an organization’s corporate governance
The CSI manager is the chief advocate and owns all CSI issues.
**************
Ove definicije su se javljale i ranije, ali ih je dobro obnoviti :
Data – a collection of facts
Information – the result of processing and organizing data in a way that adds to the knowledge of the person receiving it
Knowledge – information combined with experience, context, interpretation and reflection
Wisdom – the ability to make correct judgements and decisions
**************
Assessments are the formal mechanisms for comparing the operational process environment
to the performance standards for the purpose of measuring improved process capability and/or to identify potential shortcomings that could be addressed.
Benchmarking is a specific type of assessment and is a process used in management, particularly strategic management, in which organizations evaluate various aspects of their processes in relation to best practice, usually within their own sector. It is used to compare performance between different organizations – or different units within a single organization – undertaking similar processes.
Baseline : A snapshot of the state of a Configuration Item (CI) or set of CIs frozen at a point in time for a particular purpose. A baseline will often be recorded to ensure that the infrastructure can be restored to a trusted state should a Change fail or the CI need to be re-built. A baseline will also be established for the roll out of new CIs and for use in a disaster recovery situation.
***************
Metric is a scale of measurement defined in terms of a standard.
Metrics define what is to be measured.
