This standard of service management systems is broadly based on ITIL set processes. ISO/IEC 20000s consists of several parts of which the first main part provides requirements for ITSM. This is majorly defined for those responsible for initiating, implementing or maintaining ITSM thus providing specifications for service management systems (SMS) in their organisation. Organizations can have their ITSM independently certified that they adhere to the standards of ISO/IEC 20000-1:2011. Certification permits managed services organizations to assure clients that their IT environments will be well managed, and enables outsourcing organizations to assure clients that they will receive high-quality IT services.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
