This document discusses ISO 16350, which provides guidance for application management throughout the lifecycle. It covers initial development, operation and use, and stages in between. The document outlines several key processes, including tactical/managerial processes that support the organization, application support connecting to ISO 20000, connecting operational run and change processes, and application maintenance and renewal focusing on continuous improvement. It emphasizes managing applications to add value for customers through strategies that anticipate future needs and capabilities.
