Why certification
In order for an organization to function in an efficient manner, it has to identify and manage more correlated activities. An activity that consumes resources and which is managed in such a way that the inputs are transformed in outputs is considered a process. Many times the outputs of a process become the inputs of another one. The coordinated integration and the implementation of the service management guarantees the continual control, an increased effectiveness and opportunities for continual improvement.
