ITIL® and SIAM: An Example ITIL-based Model for Effective Service Integration and Management - Webinar
This document presents an example model for Service Integration and Management (SIAM) based on ITIL best practices. It defines SIAM as an approach to manage and coordinate services from multiple providers. The model has several key components, including core SIAM capabilities, business relationship management, and operational components. It also provides examples of how common ITIL processes could be adapted for a SIAM approach, such as having a SIAM process owner and integrating change management. The overall model is intended to help organizations design and implement an effective SIAM approach for managing services from multiple external providers.
