itSMFI is a global, independent, internationally recognized not-for-profit organisation dedicated to IT Service Management. The itSMF organisation is wholly owned and principally run by its members. It consists of a controlling and co-ordinating body, itSMF International and a rapidly growing number of national chapters - each with a large degree of autonomy but adhering to a common code of conduct.
The itSMF was started in the UK back in 1991 and the founding UK chapter has made a huge contribution over the years in establishing it as an international organisation, as well as supporting the development of ITIL, ISO/IEC 20000 and associated qualifications and certifications schemes.
The itSMF community is currently comprised of 50+ national chapters, 6000 member companies and over 40,000 individuals. Each of the chapters essentially runs itself, albeit with a varying amount of guidance and support from the International body. Whilst there are variations in products and services across the chapters, the core principles remain the same and the offerings of each chapter drive towards a common end goal - excellence in IT Service Management.
At the heart of each of itSMF's rapidly growing number of chapters is the desire to promote "best practice" in IT Service Management throughout the world. Through a variety of different mediums and delivery itSMFI aim to help their members to exchange views, network with like minded people at all levels of Service Management worldwide and to share experiences and strive towards continuous development and improvement in Service Management.
