Service Catalog

8Manage Service Catalog provides a single source of consistent information about all available services.

A service catalog provides a single source of consistent information about all available services and the following relationships can be created:

  • Business services are related to one or more service offerings
  • Business services are supported by one or more technical services
  • Both service offerings and technical services have compliance target definitions associated with service level targets or agreements which define what the customers or users expect from a service offering and how service suppliers deliver and support the service offering.


When service catalog information is associated with customers, service suppliers and contract information, it can create a rich, multi-dimensional picture linking these additional items:

  • Technical services are delivered and supported by one or more service suppliers.
  • Customers or user communities see value in a service offering and enter into a contract with the business to obtain the offering.


8Manage ITIL provides you with the tools and the storage to create the service catalog for your business. You can put information about all the IT services that are available for deployment in your service catalog. The service catalog would be the only part of the service portfolio published to customers, and is used to support the sale and delivery of IT services. Your service catalog can also include information such as deliverables, prices, contact points, ordering or request processes.
