IT service management (ITSM) is a strategic approach referring to all the activities performed for an organization to plan, design, provide, operate and manage the information technology (IT) services that are offered to its clients and customers. One of the main ITSM challenge is designing and deploying IT services that support business goals and enhance the efficiency of day-to-day operations to deliver high-quality services and improve customer satisfaction.
Delivering information technology service excellence enables IT to move from simply supporting the business to helping to innovate and optimize the business. Silos of people, processes, information and technology can create barriers of inefficiency and make it difficult to agree on service priorities. Lack of visibility into critical information and inefficient workflows make it difficult to understand service context.

Return on Investment (ROI)
Traditionally, when enterprise professionals discuss the Return of an Investment, they are mostly thinking of "financial" benefits. Today, organizations must also consider the "non-financial" benefits of an investment.
Financial Benefits include impacts on the organization's budget and finances, e.g., cost reductions or revenue increases.
Non-Financial Benefits are the so-called "intangibles", "soft", or "unquantifiable" benefits of an investment. Unlike financial returns, there may be no widely-accepted metrics that can be applied. However, SoftExpert Solutions potential for producing positive impacts on business performance and mission results are undeniable. These include improved customer satisfaction, better information, and shorter cycle-time.
The benefits calculation for ITSM should include both revenue enhancement, cost reduction and cost avoidance. Besides providing better service to clients, ITSM reduces running cost to improve profitability, utilizing industry's proven best practices to achieve increased productivity.
