Vienna, VA – August 28, 2017 – MicroHealth, LLC is pleased to announce our certification in ISO 20000-1:2011. ISO 20000-1 is an international IT service management standard that enables organizations to align their processes with the needs of the business, customers and international best-practices. First released in 2005 (and updated in 2011), the ISO 20000-1 standard consists of two core elements, which combine to help organizations achieve these goals. Part one is a formal specification covering IT service management, while part two consists of a code of best practice describing service management processes within the scope of ISO 20000-1.
Before 2005, there was no way for IT organizations to prove their working knowledge and compliance of Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) recommendations. Conceived to fill this gap, the ISO 20000-1 standard was initiated by two organizations, itSMF (IT Service Management Forum) and BSI (British Standards Institution), and is modeled upon the principles of ITIL.
“The ISO 20,000-1 standards were a perfect fit for MicroHealth as we took our information technology services to a new level. Incorporating realistic metrics helped our company make changes that improved our effectiveness.”-Page McNall
The certification was achieved through the dedication and hard work of the MicroHealth team and was declared ISO 20000-1 compliant by the Foundation for Policy and Governance which provides ISO certifications.
