ITIL Version 3
NEW
ITIL®
2011 Edition
29 July 2011 is the
publication date for the following ITIL 2011 editions:
ITIL's most recent version, Version 3 (V3), represents an important evolutionary step in its life. The refresh has transformed the guidance from providing a great service to being the most innovative and best in class. At the same time, the interface between old and new approaches is seamless so that users do not have to reinvent the wheel when adopting it. V3 allows users to build on the successes of V2 but take IT service management even further.
ITIL Versions: ITIL 2011 Edition is an update, not a new version. The updates to the publications are designed to:
By the time the update is published, ITIL V1 will no longer be in existence and V2 will be actively removed from the market over a period of time, therefore the core publications will be referred to as ITIL. In order to distinguish between the 2007 and the 2011 editions, the latest edition will carry a '2011 Edition' flash.
The ITIL Lifecycle Publication Suite - containing Service Strategy, Service Design, Service Transition, Service Operation, and Continual Service Improvement - offers considerable costs saving against purchasing all five titles individually. This official introduction is your gateway to ITIL. It explains the basic concept of IT service Management and the place of ITIL, introducing the new lifecycle model, which puts into context all the familiar ITIL processes from the earlier books. It also serves to illuminate the background of the new ITIL structure. This title introduces ITSM and ITIL, explains why the service lifecycle approach is best practice in today's ITSM, and makes a persuasive case for change. After showing high level process models, it takes the reader through the main principles that govern the new version: lifecycle stages, governance and decision making, then the principles behind design and deployment, and operation and optimisation.

Small-Scale Implementation. Author: Office of Government Commerce (OGC). Published: 26 Jan 2006. 'Small-Scale Implementation’ was written for small organisations examining the quality of their IT service management and either adopting or considering ITIL®. The guidance in ITIL® is equally as applicable to small organisations as it is to large multi-nationalcompanies, but applying it on a small scale is helped by some adaptation and a pragmatic focus. This publication does not assume the reader is familiar with all the detail of the core ITIL® books, but has an awareness of the terms and approaches suggested by ITIL®. Therefore, while everything in this publication is intended to be useful to those delivering services in small organisations, much of the content will apply whatever the size, circumstance, or situation. Sometimes referred to as ‘ITIL® Lite’, this approach is not about which parts of ITIL® are appropriate, but rather an adapted ITIL® approach to delivering an improved service, using all aspects of the guidance tailored to the smaller implementation. This publication addresses the different service management challenges faced by smaller organisations. Armed with the ideas presented in this publication, readers will be able to adapt the ITIL® guidance to deliver benefits in their own, unique, small implementations.
