ITIL Practices

ITIL Practices

ITIL® 4 defines a management practice as “a set of organizational resources designed for performing work or accomplishing an objective.”

Capability areas were known as “processes” and “functions” in ITIL v3 and referenced people and tools.  This has been expanded in ITIL 4 to explicitly include the Four Dimensions considering elements such as culture, technology, information, data management, and more.
