Pass the ITIL 4 ITIL-4-Foundation Questions and answers with ExamsMirror

ITIL® defines a problem as a cause, or potential cause, of one or more incidents. A known error is a problem that has been analyzed but not resolved.

The organizations and people dimension sets out the people aspects of service management to be considered when designing, operating and changing service offerings. People include employees, managers, executives, customers, supplier employees, or anybody else who is involved in the creation or consumption of services.

A set of interconnected activities that an organization performs to deliver a valuable product or service to its consumers and to facilitate value realization

Costs are the amount of money spent on a specific activity or resource. From the service consumer’s perspective, there are two types of cost involved in service relationships:

Costs removed from the consumer by the service (a part of the value proposition). For example, for a car sharing service, the customer does not pay for the actual cost of purchasing the car.

Don't over-engineer solutions. Think about what you can do now.

Like focus on value, this principle is heavily focused on the prevention of waste. Waste correlates with complexity. Higher complexity means there are more opportunities for waste to creep into a system.

Focus on delivering the desired outcome, not building the most elegant and elaborate solution. Use the minimum number of steps to deliver that outcome, ensuring you are not over-processing (delivering quality above and beyond what is required).

Think and work holistically

No service, practice, process, department, or supplier stands alone. The outputs that the organization delivers to itself, its customers, and other stakeholders will suffer unless it works in an integrated way to handle its activities as a whole, rather than as separate parts.

Error control also regularly re-assesses the status of known errors that have not been resolved, taking account of the overall impact on customers and/or service availability, and the cost of permanent resolutions, and effectiveness of workarounds

The ITIL guiding principle ‘focus on value’ states that everything an organization does should link back, directly or indirectly, to value for itself, its customers, and other stakeholders1. A good way to apply this principle is to understand why services are used by service consumers, what outcomes they enable, and how they contribute to value creation2. This helps to align the service provider’s activities and resources with the needs and preferences of the service consumers3. References: ITIL Foundation - ITIL 4 Edition, page 6; ITIL® 4 – A Pocket Guide, page 24; ITIL® 4 Practice Guide: Focus on Value, page 9.
