About ITIL

The Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is the most widely accepted reference standard for IT project management worldwide.

The ITIL framework was proposed by CCTA (Central Computer and Telecommunications Agency) and its purpose was to develop methods and standards within British government departments, with the aim of improving internal processes.

ITIL is a framework that recommends best practices for IT service management and provides resources to meet the ISO/IEC 20000 standard, incorporating the best recommendations contained in CMMI, PMBOK, COBIT, Six Sigma, and ISO 20000.

Therefore, following the best service management practices, based on the ITIL best practice library, CITSmart natively has 16 automated processes, which are:

  1. AM: Asset Management
  2. AVM: Availability Management
  3. CAP: Capacity Management
  4. CHG: Change Management

Anuva

ANUVA was also initiated and represents the Artificial Intelligence of CITSmart, where it promotes integration and machine learning with knowledge.

Neuro

NEURO is a product that has been 100% ready and adequate within CITSmart, this product is very powerful and allows to build new functionalities, applications, and integrations. It is very close to RPA (Robotics process automation) products, but it brings different possibilities, such as the natural integration with the Service Management framework (SLAs, knowledge, portfolio, tickets, service portal, among others).

In addition, we understand that the concepts of Service Management are very powerful and can go beyond IT, allowing interesting gains to the business units.

Evolution

The main change introduced in the last year was the focus on business processes beyond IT, that is, Corporate Service Management, proof of this is the adaptation of the service statement that became Connecting processes, delivering experiences.

This decision was based on the capacity of our Workflow to adapt to various business needs, and Neuro, by allowing the construction of new data inputs and integration possibilities. In 2018, we also created the products EC - Experience Center. This product is aimed to create a digital workspace builder.
