Service Design Specification

Implementation Guidance (The header page and this section must be removed from final version of the document)

Purpose of this document The Service Design Specification sets out how the new or changed service will be implemented at a high level.

Areas of the standard addressed The following areas of the ISO/IEC 20000:2011 standard are addressed by this document: 5. Design and transition of new or changed services 5.3 Design and development of new or changed services

General Guidance This can be a very significantly-sized document that sets out everything to do with how the new or changed service will work. The intention is that, by defining as much detail as possible in the early stages of the project, the later stages of transition and operation will run much more smoothly and take less time. They key is to ensure that your definition of requirements is as complete as possible although this can be difficult to do as the emphasis in the early stages of such a project is often on the functionality rather than the service as a whole. The list of headings in this document should be kept where possible as it is based on some explicit requirements within Part 1 of the ISO/IEC 20000 standard.

Review Frequency We would recommend that this document is reviewed annually.
