The conclusions drawn from the analysis of the current situation provide the basis for developing the to-be process structure.
 
As a first step, a list should be drawn up with the processes and sub-processes which are to be introduced or improved, resulting in a structured process breakdown.

==Description==


Following the analysis of the initial situation, it can be decided in more detail where the ITIL project will put its focus. In other words, a decision needs to be taken as to which Service Management processes are to be introduced, resulting in an overview and breakdown of the processes.

The Processes to be introduced often result in a direct way from the project objectives:
<html>
If the project serves the objective of enhancing user support and dealing more professionally with the elimination of repeatedly occurring interruptions, then the ITIL discipline „Service Desk and Incident Management“ is to be established or improved, ideally in combination with „Problem Management“ and „Configuration Management“. The Service Management project would therefore set its focus on these three processes.

Additional considerations are, however, in place in some cases:

If the objective is to introduce pro­per change management, in order to rule out unauthorised alterations to the IT infrastructure and better avoid side-effects caused by changes, then the focus will be on the Change Management process.
==Notes==


In order for any Change Management to function effectively, the availability of reliable data on the IT infrastructure (Configuration Items and their interrelations) is an important prerequisite.

This calls for a well-functioning Configuration Management, so any project aiming at improving Change Management must also include in its scope the Configuration Management process.

Step 5: Definition of the To-Be Process Structure

 

The conclusions drawn from the analysis of the current situation provide the basis for developing the to-be process structure.

As a first step, a list should be drawn up with the processes and sub-processes which are to be introduced or improved, resulting in a structured process breakdown.

Objectives

  • Determination of the service management processes which are to be introduced
  • Breakdown of processes into sub-processes


Description

ITIL Process Structure
Fig. 1: Selection of relevant ITIL processes from the ITIL reference process structure (.pdf)

The ITIL processes to be introduced often result in a direct way from the project objectives:

If the project serves the objective of enhancing user support, the Incident Management process is to be established or improved. Because of their close links with Incident Management, the Problem Management and Configuration Management processes should also be included in the project scope.

The aim of this project step is primarily to choose the ITIL processes and sub-processes. The to-be process structure does not contain detailed process descriptions - these are developed at a later stage.

The ITIL Process Map contains a generic process structure so it can be used to support this step.

Prerequisites

  • Results of the as-is process assessment
  • Project objectives ("What is the motivation for introducing ITIL best practice?").

Results/ Deliverables

  • Structured breakdown of the ITIL processes to be introduced

Success factors

  • The definition of the process structure should not try to anticipate later project steps; the aim of this step is to identify the processes and sub-processes to be introduced, not to specify processes in great detail.

Relevant views of the ITIL Process Map

The ITIL Process Map contains a hierarchical structure of ITIL processes - see fig. 1: Reference process structure (.pdf). This generic process structure can be used as a starting point.

Process overviews (see fig. 2) depict the process interdependencies and help to choose an adequate to-be process structure.
