ISO 20000-1 workshop for experts

Ozona Consulting participated in the ISO 20000-1 workshop for experts organized by the Spanish Association for Standardization (UNE) and itSMF Spain.

This professional event examined the main changes introduced in ISO 20000-1:2018. It also discussed how these changes would affect the implementation of the standard in organizations.

Indeed, the new edition of ISO 20000 is much less prescriptive than the previous ones. This is because it focuses on explaining what the requirements are rather than how to fulfil them. It is also meant to be compatible with any framework, such as ITIL, IT4IT, VeriSM, etc. This newly gained flexibility has made the standard useful for a greater number of organizations.
