What is ISO 20000 certification?

ISO 20000 is a globally recognised standard for Service Management Systems (SMS) which is designed to help organisations manage their service delivery demands and deliver value for customers, users and the organization. This standard is ideal for any service provider, large or small, who wants to provide assurance in the quality of the services they deliver.

Achieving UKAS-accredited certification to ISO 20000 provides independent assurance to your existing and potential customers and other interested parties that you have appropriate  Service Management controls in place. It can also give you a vital edge over your competitors.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to implement an ISO 20000 compliant service management system (SMS)?

The time it takes to implement an ISO 20000 compliant SMS can vary depending on the size and complexity of your organisation, but it typically takes between 4 – 6 months.

Can Teamwork IMS guarantee successful certification?

We have a 100% success rate guiding our clients through ISO 20000 certification, however, it’s important to note that the certification we support you through is carried by an entirely separate, accredited certification body and by its nature is not something we can ever guarantee. We believe that this gives you a level of compliance that is second to none.

What does ISO 20000 certification involve?

Achieving ISO 20000 certification involves implementing a comprehensive Service Management System (SMS) that meets the four primary requirements of service management including change management, issue resolution, management responsibility and resource management. Crucially, the service management system must be designed to deliver services that meet the needs of customers and stakeholders, and relationships with customers, suppliers, and other stakeholders must be effectively managed.

Can Teamwork help with maintenance and continuous improvement after certification?

Yes absolutely. We can provide ongoing support to help you maintain compliance with the standard and continuously improve your service management system. This can include conducting regular internal audits, facilitating management reviews, providing training and guidance on process improvements, and helping you address areas where you are no longer meeting the standards and suggesting effective remedies.

How do you help us prepare for ISO 20000 certification?

We can help you at every step of the way, firstly by conducting a gap analysis of your current Service Management System, then by developing a customised implementation plan, providing training and support to your staff, and finally by helping you navigate the certification process.

How does ISO 20000 help with service management?

The better and more effective your organisation is in planning and delivering services, then the knock-on effect is that your customers (internal or external) are going to be better at their jobs as well. Teamwork can help you to implement an ITIL-based ISO 20000-compliant IT service management system which ensures that you have a good understanding of your customer’s requirements and a strong focus on delivering the services that your customer needs. By adopting an ITIL-based structured approach to service delivery and support you are assured of reliable services capable of withstanding disruption. This not only enhances customer and employee satisfaction but improves your corporate image and demonstrates your credibility.

We practice what we preach

For a consultancy team who routinely manage compliance programs for other organisations, progressing through our own certification process is always a valuable reminder of how the experience feels and we think that this contributes towards our efficient but sympathetic approach to consulting for others.
