“The whole nature of the work and industry we’re in as a value stream or series of value streams, is moving much more towards a strategic level and that will have a positive impact on where the service desk sits, because it is much more part of the demand-capture area”
Barclay Rae, ITIL 4 Lead Author, NED – itSMF UK
“I don’t think there’s any part of IT support that doesn’t have an impact on the service desk because it’s integral to the whole operation, there’s not a part of the organisation that it doesn’t touch.”
