Service – Request
Service. A means of delivering value to customers by facilitating outcomes customers want to achieve without the ownership of specific costs and risks.
IT Service. An IT Service is made up from a combination of people, processes and technology and should be defined in a Service Level Agreement.
Service Request. A request from a User for information, or advice, or for a Standard Change or for Access to an IT Service. Service Requests do not require an RFC to be submitted.

The Service Catalog is not a Request Portal
A singular, tactical tool supporting immediate business (IT) needs.
Broad, strategic portal offering customer innovative, self-service empowerment
![Page 9: How Service, Request, Business and IT Service Catalogs Fit Together](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070602/587668d51a28abd0018b4829/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Strategic Versus Tactical
It is critical for IT to align with business and empower the employee
Requests are tactical and transactional
The Service Portfolio is the “factory” for developing services to meet IT’s mission
Services in the catalog are proactive and strategically relevant
Requests are reactive
![Page 10: How Service, Request, Business and IT Service Catalogs Fit Together](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070602/587668d51a28abd0018b4829/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
Integrated Versus Stand-Alone
Contains variety and depth of details about the offering
Combines portfolio components owned by multiple departments and individuals
Details include descriptions, options, and costs (chargebacks or showbacks)
Each request is usually fulfilled by a single IT department / individual
Provides basic selections aligning IT tasks with routine requests
Details do not consider costs (chargebacks or showbacks)

Let’s Start With Services
IT Service. A service provided to one or more Customers by an IT Service Provider.
Business Service. An IT Service that directly supports a Business Process, as opposed to an Infrastructure Service. Also means a Service that is delivered to Business Customers by Business Units.

Core Service. An IT Service that delivers basic Outcomes desired by one or more Customers. See Supporting Service, Core Service Package.
