Introduction 
• This slide deck attempts to offer some concrete 
guidance on how Architectural activities and 
outputs can be integrated into the ITIL 
framework 
• The focus is on integrating into ITIL processes

Architecture has further 
reach and more 
sophisticated guidance for 
strategic activities, while 
ITIL better covers daily 
operational activities
TOGAF and ITIL are examples of a Deming Cycle. 
When colour-coded against the Deming Cycle steps and plotted over the 
generic IT lifecycle, you can see they have a good synergy (at a high level).

Architecture & ITIL operate at multiple levels of IT 
(their areas of focus as well as their activities are 
different at different levels). 
At each layer, Architecture and ITIL require 
coordination and integration. 
7
Here is a 1-page 
look at integrating 
Architecture 
outputs into ITIL
You need to consider Process, Data 
and Governance to get a complete 
picture of the integration. 
• Process (to a certain level of 
detail) is covered in this deck

This is the beginning of the main slide 
deck. 
Let’s start off with some general 
background… 
11
ITIL and Architecture: The Case for Integration 
• Historically, EA has not been active in ITIL initiatives 
• A Forrester paper says that even today most ITIL programs still have little 
involvement from EA 
• The belief seems to be that these are different worlds and different concerns 
• However, both ITIL and Architecture have expanded their frameworks over time and 
now have significant overlap 
12
ITIL and Architecture: The Case for Integration 
• You may have seen this diagram 
in some whitepapers that discuss 
integrating TOGAF with ITIL 
• This view illustrates how TOGAF can 
complement ITIL’s weakness in 
Strategic matters and vice-versa for 
Operational matters 
• Two challenges with this diagram: 
• The way it’s laid out leaves an initial 
impression that Architecture and ITIL 
are nice complementary halves of the 
whole, not heavily-overlapping 
frameworks 
• This only looks at Enterprise 
Architecture: what about the 
Architecture practice as a whole?

ITIL and Architecture: The Case for Integration 
• This diagram perhaps more 
realistically illustrates the type 
of overlap between the two 
frameworks 
• In the Operational area, ITIL 
provides SLA concepts that 
Architecture doesn’t talk about. 
• In the Strategic area, ITIL does 
not address anything above the 
level of portfolio of Services 
• There’s a lot of area in between 
where integration is required 
• Note: This may not reflect your 
specific company: 
• Many companies do not try to 
implement all of ITIL 
• Many companies do not have a 
modern and/or comprehensive 
Architecture practice

Synchronization of processes is an 
important part of integration, so let’s 
take a moment to compare the TOGAF 
and ITIL lifecycles… 
15
TOGAF and ITIL Are Modified Deming Cycles 
• The Deming Cycle is an iterative 
process (originating in the 
manufacturing sector) for quality 
management and continuous 
improvement. 
• It consists of 4 steps: 
• Plan: Establish objectives 
• Do: Implement the plan 
• Check: Study the results 
• Act: Adjust to bring results in line with 
objectives 
• TOGAF and ITIL are all about quality 
control and continuous improvement

TOGAF as a Modified Deming Cycle 
17 
• Here is a diagram of TOGAF’s 
ADM (architecture development 
method). Colour-coding is used 
to map TOGAF stages to 
Deming Cycle steps. 
• Quality control and continuous 
improvement entails: 
• iterating and going back to 
previous steps when 
necessary 
• constant cross-references 
between Requirements as 
they evolve versus the 
architecture specifications as 
they evolve. 
• assessing gaps, redundancies 
and performance of delivered 
architectures 
• defining future states with 
capability maturity models 
and roadmaps, 
• transitional architectures to 
guide progress to the future 
state.
ITIL as a Modified Deming Cycle 
18 
• Here is a diagram of 
ITIL’s lifecycle. Colour-coding 
is used to map 
ITIL phases to Deming 
Cycle steps. 
• Quality control involves 
defining expected levels 
of service and metrics to 
assess whether levels 
are met. 
• Continuous improvement 
involves a formal 7-step 
quality improvement 
process. 
• Note: The size of the pie 
slices are not meant to 
indicate the relative time 
or focus dedicated to any 
particular phase
TOGAF and ITIL Overlaid as a Deming Cycle 
19 
• Overlaying ITIL with TOGAF 
shows that, at a high level, 
the two frameworks sync up 
pretty well in terms of the 
main Deming-type focus of 
each of their respective steps. 
• When we dive a little deeper 
into the activities of each step 
in these frameworks, we see 
the picture is a little more 
complicated, because several 
TOGAF phases actually bridge 
ITIL phases 
• We will go through that 
later on in this deck
Now let’s see how Architecture and ITIL 
relate to different levels of IT… 
20
The Foundational Annual IT Lifecycle 
21 
• Even companies that 
have implemented ITIL 
tend to keep to a 
traditional, fundamental 
annual rhythm that has 3 
basic phases: 
• Planning for the 
upcoming year 
• Executing Delivery 
projects that were 
identified in the 
planning stage 
• Maintaining delivered 
solutions as part of 
corporate operations 
• Includes the monitoring, 
operating and supporting 
of systems
ITIL in the Foundational IT Lifecycle 
Service Operation 
22 
• If we plot ITIL 
stages onto the 
basic IT lifecycle, we 
see a pretty close 
alignment with the 
basic IT organization 
lifecycle. 
• Service Transition 
straddles Delivery 
and Operations 
because that phase 
begins with the final 
phases of a delivery 
project and 
continues through 
the warranty period 
of the delivered 
solution operating in 
Production

23 
Prelim 
• Overlaying ITIL with TOGAF shows 
us how TOGAF phases relate to the 
ITIL lifecycle 
• Phase B is shown as straddling the 
Strategy and Design stages 
because TOGAF allows for the 
scenario where the is little or no 
pre-existing Business Architecture 
and so work needs to be done to 
get buy-in for the key Business 
objectives, to build Business 
Strategy and Vision if there isn’t 
one, etc. 
• Phase F bites into Service 
Transition because the transition 
plan is finalized in Phase F, and is 
one of the first things completed in 
Service Transition 
• Phase G straddles Design and 
Transition because TOGAF specifies 
that IT projects happen during 
that phase 
• Phase H has aspects of Continual 
Service Improvement: that is 
where operational monitoring as 
well as monitoring for changes in 
the environment occurs. Changes 
in the Business environment can 
result in changes to the service 
strategy and architecture vision.
The Basic Lifecycle Exists at Multiple Levels of IT 
24 
• The top level is at the level 
of IT as an organization 
• The second level is typically 
a portfolio of some kind, 
which can be based on a 
Capability, on related 
technologies, on the 
Business Unit customer, 
etc. Portfolios typically 
consist of multiple systems 
or services. 
• The third level is typically a 
Service or system 
• These levels are “typical” – 
your org may be different
The Basic Lifecycle Exists at Multiple Levels of IT 
25 
• At the IT Level: 
• Involves strategically prioritizing and 
sequencing Business demand 
• Governance of delivery and change 
management 
• Centralized Help Desk function 
• At the Portfolio Level: 
• Involves identifying and planning strategic 
capability enhancements 
• Management and synchronization of projects 
impacting the portfolio technical landscape 
• Identifying capability gaps and redundancies 
in the technical landscape of the portfolio 
• Managing the portfolio information landscape 
• At the Service Level: 
• Involves identifying and planning service 
improvements 
• Managing delivery projects 
• Managing the introduction of new solutions 
into the technical landscape 
• Operating, monitoring, supporting and 
maintaining solutions
Architecture & ITIL Exists at Multiple Levels of IT 
26 
• IT Organization level: 
• ITIL is concerned with building a 
service catalog, assigning service 
ownership roles and responsibilities, 
and coordinating and standardizing 
Service Design approaches 
• Architecture is focused on EA 
concerns, such as the business 
priorities, investment prioritization, 
architectural governance 
(standards, arch. patterns and 
compliance) and future-state 
visioning/planning 
• Portfolio/segment level: 
• Architecture is concerned with 
portfolio management and capability 
planning. 
• IT Service level: 
• ITIL lifecycle and practices are 
applied to each Service 
• Architecture complements ITIL with 
specific best practices applied across 
the ITIL lifecycle and is concerned 
with the application of Solution 
Architecture practices within service 
delivery projects
Let’s get a little bit more specific 
regarding what Architecture and ITIL 
contribute at the different IT levels.

there are numerous points 
of integration between 
TOGAF and ITIL at the 
Service Design stage 
• The nature of the various 
points of integration 
includes both EA and SA 
activities 
• The Design Coordination 
high-level process is 
umbrella beneath which IT 
development projects are 
spun up and executed, 
but Design Coordination 
does not actually manage

requests. (EA) 
• Phase F provides for 
identifying and resolving 
conflict/interdependencies 
between implementation 
projects (EA) 
• Phase G provides a 
Deployment Risk/Impact 
assessment (SA) and also 
provides a host phase for 
ARB approval for the 
change (EA)
TOGAF Integration by 
ITIL Lifecycle Stage 
ST Stage Summary 
• There are a surprising 
number of both EA and SA 
integration points between 
TOGAF and ITIL at the 
Service Transition stage 
• The Release & 
Deployment Management 
process is where the work 
gets done to move 
solutions into Production. 
• This is analogous to the 
relationship between IT 
projects and TOGAF’s 
Phase G.
TOGAF Integration by 
ITIL Lifecycle Stage 
• For operational services, 
the role of Architecture is 
focused around ensuring 
the services continue to 
provide the required 
benefits and to identify 
when changes are needed 
• Providing insight into 
changes in the Business 
environment that might 
change the operating 
conditions or expectations 
for services 
• Checking that service 
levels meet Requirements 
• Providing guidance on 
system/data access and 
usage
TOGAF Integration by 
ITIL Lifecycle Stage 
• Here’s everything 
summarized on 1 
page
Wait! We’re not done yet! 
There is more to talk about 
Process, and also Data and 
Governance 
• each of these is worth a slide deck on 
their own, but we’ll close off with a few 
slides to paint an overview 
59
Other Considerations - Process 
• The previous analysis of TOGAF Integration by ITIL Stage is a pretty instructive 
and prescriptive look at integration from a Process perspective, but it doesn’t 
tell the whole story. This view: 
• does not show that many ITIL processes span multiple ITIL stages, and 
also does not peer inside the processes, so the timing of the Architectural 
inputs into the processes is not clear in this view 
• only shows a 1-way relationship of Architecture inputs to ITIL, but not 
ITIL inputs to Architecture
Other Considerations - Data 
• ITIL has a few different categories of Service: 
1. Business Service: A service delivered to business customers by business units. Note that this is 
demarcated from any technology - since ITIL is IT-scoped, the internal workings of a Business 
Service are really outside the scope of ITIL, though of course we need to understand the inputs, 
outputs and controls so that IT can support these activities. 
2. IT Service: A service provided by IT. These are really what ITIL Services are all about. There 
are two types of IT Service, Customer-facing and Supporting: 
A) Customer-facing Service: These are the IT Services that are directly interacted with by the 
Customer. The Customer means internal customer (i.e. the Business): not the public and not other 
IT groups. Why not the public? Because the Business Services are the interface to the public, not 
IT Services. Why not other IT groups? Because if other IT groups can be customers then all IT 
Services will be Customer-Facing, making the service catalog pretty useless for one of its primary 
goals: making it easy for the Business to find and engage services. 
B) Supporting Service: These are the IT services that support Customer-facing Services. The 
customers of these services are other IT groups. 
So, that's the ITIL service types: they are differentiated by the type of end customer, but they are 
what you would call "organizational" services. They all are mapped to an org unit that delivers 
them, they all include management, planning, monitoring, and support resources (people, budget, 
equipment, etc.). 
TOGAF (if you include the extensions to the meta-model) has the following service types: 
Business, Information System, and Platform. TOGAF service types map to different layers: 
Business Service ---> Organizational: between people as part of business processes 
Info System Service ---> SOA: between systems as part of processes 
Platform Service ---> Technology: interfaces between technology and/or software 
Now look back at ITIL: those services are all at the Organizational layer. So, you actually have a 
3:1 overloading of ITIL Service to TOGAF Business Service. 
• Other important ITIL concepts must also be mapped in a manner that 
preserves integrity for both TOGAF and ITIL. Sometimes this is 
straight-forward, sometimes it isn’t! 
61
Other Considerations - Governance 
62 
• The ITIL books do offer 
some discussion regarding 
interacting with other 
governance bodies, but its 
recognition of Architecture 
governance is mostly 
restricted to specifying 
standards. 
• ITIL does not mention 
common Architecture 
governance bodies, such 
as ARB, nor does it talk 
about the scope of 
mandate an ARB may 
have.

  • 1. Integrating Architecture and ITIL Best Practices, Part 1 Warren Weinmeyer Aug. 2014
  • 2. Table of Contents • Executive Summary ………………………………………………Slides 05-09 • The Case for Integration ………………………………………Slides 12-14 • TOGAF & ITIL as Deming Cycles …………………………Slides 16-19 • Foundational IT Lifecycle & IT Levels ……………………Slides 21-26 • Architecture & IT Roles at Different IT Levels………Slides 28-30 • TOGAF Integration by ITIL Stage & Process…………Slides 32-58 • Other Important Aspects of Integration ………………Slides 60-62 2
  • 3. 3 Introduction • This slide deck attempts to offer some concrete guidance on how Architectural activities and outputs can be integrated into the ITIL framework • The focus is on integrating into ITIL processes
  • 4. A brief summary for Managers (and for you TL;DR types)… 4
  • 5. There’s LOTS of overlap between the focus areas of Architecture and ITIL High Low 5 Maturity of Best Practices Operational Tactical Strategic Activity Type Architecture Med ITIL Architecture has further reach and more sophisticated guidance for strategic activities, while ITIL better covers daily operational activities
  • 6. TOGAF and ITIL are examples of a Deming Cycle. When colour-coded against the Deming Cycle steps and plotted over the generic IT lifecycle, you can see they have a good synergy (at a high level). Continual Service Improvement Service Operation 6 Prelim
  • 7. Architecture & ITIL operate at multiple levels of IT (their areas of focus as well as their activities are different at different levels). At each layer, Architecture and ITIL require coordination and integration. 7
  • 8. Here is a 1-page look at integrating Architecture outputs into ITIL
  • 9. You need to consider Process, Data and Governance to get a complete picture of the integration. • Process (to a certain level of detail) is covered in this deck 9
  • 10. 10
  • 11. This is the beginning of the main slide deck. Let’s start off with some general background… 11
  • 12. ITIL and Architecture: The Case for Integration • Historically, EA has not been active in ITIL initiatives • A Forrester paper says that even today most ITIL programs still have little involvement from EA • The belief seems to be that these are different worlds and different concerns • However, both ITIL and Architecture have expanded their frameworks over time and now have significant overlap 12
  • 13. ITIL and Architecture: The Case for Integration • You may have seen this diagram in some whitepapers that discuss integrating TOGAF with ITIL • This view illustrates how TOGAF can complement ITIL’s weakness in Strategic matters and vice-versa for Operational matters • Two challenges with this diagram: • The way it’s laid out leaves an initial impression that Architecture and ITIL are nice complementary halves of the whole, not heavily-overlapping frameworks • This only looks at Enterprise Architecture: what about the Architecture practice as a whole? 13 Strategic ITIL Tactical Operational EA
  • 14. ITIL and Architecture: The Case for Integration • This diagram perhaps more realistically illustrates the type of overlap between the two frameworks • In the Operational area, ITIL provides SLA concepts that Architecture doesn’t talk about. • In the Strategic area, ITIL does not address anything above the level of portfolio of Services • There’s a lot of area in between where integration is required • Note: This may not reflect your specific company: • Many companies do not try to implement all of ITIL • Many companies do not have a modern and/or comprehensive Architecture practice High Low 14 Maturity of Best Practices Operational Tactical Strategic Activity Type Architecture Med ITIL
  • 15. Synchronization of processes is an important part of integration, so let’s take a moment to compare the TOGAF and ITIL lifecycles… 15
  • 16. TOGAF and ITIL Are Modified Deming Cycles • The Deming Cycle is an iterative process (originating in the manufacturing sector) for quality management and continuous improvement. • It consists of 4 steps: • Plan: Establish objectives • Do: Implement the plan • Check: Study the results • Act: Adjust to bring results in line with objectives • TOGAF and ITIL are all about quality control and continuous improvement 16 Are we doing the right things? Plan Act Deming Cycle netting the expected Check Do Are we doing things right? Are the results benefits? Are we getting the expected results?
  • 17. TOGAF as a Modified Deming Cycle 17 • Here is a diagram of TOGAF’s ADM (architecture development method). Colour-coding is used to map TOGAF stages to Deming Cycle steps. • Quality control and continuous improvement entails: • iterating and going back to previous steps when necessary • constant cross-references between Requirements as they evolve versus the architecture specifications as they evolve. • assessing gaps, redundancies and performance of delivered architectures • defining future states with capability maturity models and roadmaps, • transitional architectures to guide progress to the future state.
  • 18. ITIL as a Modified Deming Cycle 18 • Here is a diagram of ITIL’s lifecycle. Colour-coding is used to map ITIL phases to Deming Cycle steps. • Quality control involves defining expected levels of service and metrics to assess whether levels are met. • Continuous improvement involves a formal 7-step quality improvement process. • Note: The size of the pie slices are not meant to indicate the relative time or focus dedicated to any particular phase
  • 19. TOGAF and ITIL Overlaid as a Deming Cycle 19 • Overlaying ITIL with TOGAF shows that, at a high level, the two frameworks sync up pretty well in terms of the main Deming-type focus of each of their respective steps. • When we dive a little deeper into the activities of each step in these frameworks, we see the picture is a little more complicated, because several TOGAF phases actually bridge ITIL phases • We will go through that later on in this deck
  • 20. Now let’s see how Architecture and ITIL relate to different levels of IT… 20
  • 21. The Foundational Annual IT Lifecycle 21 • Even companies that have implemented ITIL tend to keep to a traditional, fundamental annual rhythm that has 3 basic phases: • Planning for the upcoming year • Executing Delivery projects that were identified in the planning stage • Maintaining delivered solutions as part of corporate operations • Includes the monitoring, operating and supporting of systems
  • 22. ITIL in the Foundational IT Lifecycle Service Operation 22 • If we plot ITIL stages onto the basic IT lifecycle, we see a pretty close alignment with the basic IT organization lifecycle. • Service Transition straddles Delivery and Operations because that phase begins with the final phases of a delivery project and continues through the warranty period of the delivered solution operating in Production Continual Service Improvement
  • 23. TOGAF and ITIL in the Foundational IT Lifecycle Continual Service Improvement Service Operation 23 Prelim • Overlaying ITIL with TOGAF shows us how TOGAF phases relate to the ITIL lifecycle • Phase B is shown as straddling the Strategy and Design stages because TOGAF allows for the scenario where the is little or no pre-existing Business Architecture and so work needs to be done to get buy-in for the key Business objectives, to build Business Strategy and Vision if there isn’t one, etc. • Phase F bites into Service Transition because the transition plan is finalized in Phase F, and is one of the first things completed in Service Transition • Phase G straddles Design and Transition because TOGAF specifies that IT projects happen during that phase • Phase H has aspects of Continual Service Improvement: that is where operational monitoring as well as monitoring for changes in the environment occurs. Changes in the Business environment can result in changes to the service strategy and architecture vision.
  • 24. The Basic Lifecycle Exists at Multiple Levels of IT 24 • The top level is at the level of IT as an organization • The second level is typically a portfolio of some kind, which can be based on a Capability, on related technologies, on the Business Unit customer, etc. Portfolios typically consist of multiple systems or services. • The third level is typically a Service or system • These levels are “typical” – your org may be different
  • 25. The Basic Lifecycle Exists at Multiple Levels of IT 25 • At the IT Level: • Involves strategically prioritizing and sequencing Business demand • Governance of delivery and change management • Centralized Help Desk function • At the Portfolio Level: • Involves identifying and planning strategic capability enhancements • Management and synchronization of projects impacting the portfolio technical landscape • Identifying capability gaps and redundancies in the technical landscape of the portfolio • Managing the portfolio information landscape • At the Service Level: • Involves identifying and planning service improvements • Managing delivery projects • Managing the introduction of new solutions into the technical landscape • Operating, monitoring, supporting and maintaining solutions
  • 26. Architecture & ITIL Exists at Multiple Levels of IT 26 • IT Organization level: • ITIL is concerned with building a service catalog, assigning service ownership roles and responsibilities, and coordinating and standardizing Service Design approaches • Architecture is focused on EA concerns, such as the business priorities, investment prioritization, architectural governance (standards, arch. patterns and compliance) and future-state visioning/planning • Portfolio/segment level: • Architecture is concerned with portfolio management and capability planning. • IT Service level: • ITIL lifecycle and practices are applied to each Service • Architecture complements ITIL with specific best practices applied across the ITIL lifecycle and is concerned with the application of Solution Architecture practices within service delivery projects
  • 27. Let’s get a little bit more specific regarding what Architecture and ITIL contribute at the different IT levels. 27
  • 28. Architecture & ITIL Roles – IT Organization Level 28 • Architecture supports with: • Best practices: • Strategic Planning • Models: • Strategy/Motivation • Capability/Value Chain • Analytics: • Demand/Opportunity strategic value interdependencies, redundancies and synergies assessments • Governance: • Standards and Patterns • Strategic Alignment • ITIL supports with: • Processes: • Change Management • Help Desk/Support • Governance: • Organizational structures • Functional Role Definitions • Service Portfolio • Standardized Processes • Models: • CMDB
  • 29. Architecture & ITIL Roles – IT Portfolio Level 29 • Architecture supports the IT portfolio lifecycle with: • Best practices: • Strategic Planning • Master Data Management • Models: • Maturity • Strategy/Motivation • Capability Development Roadmaps • Analytics: • Portfolio capability gaps and redundancies • Program/Project interdependencies, redundancies and synergies • ITIL does not address the IT portfolio level
  • 30. Architecture & ITIL Roles – IT Service Level 30 • Architecture supports with: • Best practices: • Strategic Planning • Business Process Modeling/Improvement • SOA • Models: • Strategy/Motivation • Process • Solution Architectures • Analytics: • System interdependencies/interactions • Governance: • Technology Standards • ITIL supports with: • Processes: • Service Lifecycle Management • Change Management • Continuous Improvement • Capacity Planning • Governance: • Service/Process Owners and Stewards • Service Level Agreements
  • 31. Now let’s zoom in for a look at some concrete ways of integrating TOGAF into the ITIL lifecycle. 31
  • 32. TOGAF Integration by ITIL Stage and Process • Here’s a basic view of TOGAF and ITIL without any of the lifecycle flow arrows • Using this view, we are going to build a mid-level mapping of Architecture activities and deliverables against each ITIL process • We will also indicate which TOGAF phase will govern the interaction with the ITIL process

  • 53. TOGAF Integration by ITIL Lifecycle Stage • Service Validation and Testing provides quality assurance, and verifies that a new or changed IT service is fit for purpose and fit for use. • Phase G provides validation of architectural compliance of the solution to architectural standards (EA), and assists in validating the service through providing fit/gap assessments for the non-functional, security and functional characteristics of the solution compared to Requirements (SA)
  • 54. TOGAF Integration by ITIL Lifecycle Stage • Change Management involves the enablement of beneficial changes with minimal disruption to IT services through risk management, ensuring changes are documented, controlled and prioritized for value and strategic alignment • Phase A provides strategic alignment and value assessments for work packages that have submitted change requests. (EA) • Phase F provides for identifying and resolving conflict/interdependencies between implementation projects, sequencing of the projects for optimal benefits realization (EA), and deployment and roll-back plans (SA) • Phase G provides validation of architectural compliance of the solution to architectural standards (EA), and assists in validating the service through providing non-functional and functional fit/gap assessments to listed Requirements (SA)

  • 57. TOGAF Integration by ITIL Lifecycle Stage • For operational services, the role of Architecture is focused around ensuring the services continue to provide the required benefits and to identify when changes are needed • Providing insight into changes in the Business environment that might change the operating conditions or expectations for services • Checking that service levels meet Requirements • Providing guidance on system/data access and usage
  • 58. TOGAF Integration by ITIL Lifecycle Stage • Here’s everything summarized on 1 page
  • 59. Wait! We’re not done yet! There is more to talk about Process, and also Data and Governance • each of these is worth a slide deck on their own, but we’ll close off with a few slides to paint an overview 59
  • 60. Other Considerations - Process • The previous analysis of TOGAF Integration by ITIL Stage is a pretty instructive and prescriptive look at integration from a Process perspective, but it doesn’t tell the whole story. This view: • does not show that many ITIL processes span multiple ITIL stages, and also does not peer inside the processes, so the timing of the Architectural inputs into the processes is not clear in this view • only shows a 1-way relationship of Architecture inputs to ITIL, but not ITIL inputs to Architecture
  • 61. Other Considerations - Data • ITIL has a few different categories of Service: 1. Business Service: A service delivered to business customers by business units. Note that this is demarcated from any technology - since ITIL is IT-scoped, the internal workings of a Business Service are really outside the scope of ITIL, though of course we need to understand the inputs, outputs and controls so that IT can support these activities. 2. IT Service: A service provided by IT. These are really what ITIL Services are all about. There are two types of IT Service, Customer-facing and Supporting: A) Customer-facing Service: These are the IT Services that are directly interacted with by the Customer. The Customer means internal customer (i.e. the Business): not the public and not other IT groups. Why not the public? Because the Business Services are the interface to the public, not IT Services. Why not other IT groups? Because if other IT groups can be customers then all IT Services will be Customer-Facing, making the service catalog pretty useless for one of its primary goals: making it easy for the Business to find and engage services. B) Supporting Service: These are the IT services that support Customer-facing Services. The customers of these services are other IT groups. So, that's the ITIL service types: they are differentiated by the type of end customer, but they are what you would call "organizational" services. They all are mapped to an org unit that delivers them, they all include management, planning, monitoring, and support resources (people, budget, equipment, etc.). TOGAF (if you include the extensions to the meta-model) has the following service types: Business, Information System, and Platform. TOGAF service types map to different layers: Business Service ---> Organizational: between people as part of business processes Info System Service ---> SOA: between systems as part of processes Platform Service ---> Technology: interfaces between technology and/or software Now look back at ITIL: those services are all at the Organizational layer. So, you actually have a 3:1 overloading of ITIL Service to TOGAF Business Service. • Other important ITIL concepts must also be mapped in a manner that preserves integrity for both TOGAF and ITIL. Sometimes this is straight-forward, sometimes it isn’t! 61
  • 62. Other Considerations - Governance 62 • The ITIL books do offer some discussion regarding interacting with other governance bodies, but its recognition of Architecture governance is mostly restricted to specifying standards. • ITIL does not mention common Architecture governance bodies, such as ARB, nor does it talk about the scope of mandate an ARB may have.
