IT4IT™For Managing the Business of IT – A Management guide
(page 5)
The IT4IT Reference Architecture should be used together with other standards and frameworks such as PMBOK Guide,
COBIT and ITIL
The IT Value Chain based IT operating model complements these existing standards and process best practices by
combining them into an overarching blueprint, in which enterprise architecture, portfolio management, project
management and service development are integrated with IT Service Management, enabling the IT function to be
managed from and end to end perspective
The IT4IT Reference Architecture’s Service Model, Information Model, Functional Model, and Integration Model add a
layer of prescriptive detail to COBIT and ITIL based processes, providing the IT function with requirements for selecting
and implementing interoperable IT solutions that support and automate activities with the IT function
This includes developing more flexible IT processes and IT management solutions and building stronger,
more fluid connections among employees and with customers and vendors
6. Consumer demands are rapidly changing; on-demand

Early teens to early 30s
Demanding, internet savvy, instant
gratification. The iPad generation
Gen X

it all” postwar generation

7. Business models are changing, and IT services must shift
You get what you are given
You get what you want, plus what you
didn’t know you needed
…and of course, must always be better, faster, cheaper and safer

Value Stream optimisation
Remember over optimisation leads
to systemic waste
Formal IT4IT education is valuable
We do not need to train the world in
IT4IT
At last we have a reference
architecture for running the business
of IT
But keep it in context …. Its not the
law…. Its not religion
Start to have conversations with
your vendors about IT4IT
Remember the standard was only
released in October 2015
Start thinking value and avoid pure
IT Technical “speak”
The business will always listen
when you talk value itSMF UK
Think Big Start Small
