schemes to a wide international audience” Richard Pharro
March 23, 2012
“Our network of Accredited Training

70. Conclusion: ITIL & BiSL are
complementary frameworks
• BiSL describes responsibilities of the Business
and aims primarily to guide the Business
• ITIL describes part of BiSL’s domain in order
that IT Service Providers have better
understanding of the Business’ role
• Because ITIL is written as guidance for IT
Service Providers and BiSL is written as
guidance for the Business, BiSL and ITIL can
be regarded as complementary frameworks

justifiable investments?
