ITSM Demand Management
Understanding and Forecasting Demand
Resource Optimization
Demand Management streamlines and optimizes the use of IT resources, ensuring that the number of technical and human resources included in the budget matches the expected service demand. If forecasts are too low, agreed services may not be delivered at the required level; if too high, resources may be allocated to unused or unpaid services. Demand Management bridges the gap between service design, capacity management, and business relationship management to provide the most accurate forecasts possible.
Although Demand Management activities are not highly visible to customers, an imbalance in service demand impacts nearly every part of the service lifecycle.
