Recently, interests in IT Service Management(ITSM) are increasing internationally as well as domestically. In order to realize the benefits from ITSM, it is necessary to institutionalize it as a culture of the organization through effective change management. One of the most promising approach of effective change management is the change management framework of ITSM. In this study, we analyze a success case in which the change management framework of ITSM was applied to IT Service company which has introduced ITSM. Through the analyses, this study aims to propose a feasible and specific approach to institutionalize ITSM. To accomplish the objective, the study is designed to analyze specific methods for applying ITSM's change management framework to ITSM organizations, performance of projects and future directions based on interviews and review of project documents/deliverables. This study could not provide detailed performance measures due to lack of previous research on this topic and difficulty of obtaining quantitative data. However, this study has contributed to proposing a direction to institutionalize ITSM in organizations by analyzing a feasibility of ITSM's change management framework in implementing ITSM.

This study proposes a research framework for IT service management (ITSM) area based on theories on innovation and IT achievements in the area of MIS. Then, existing ITSM literature is reviewed based on the research framework, and implications for future ITSM research are suggested. Major findings are as follows: (1) domestic research efforts should be continued to contribute to the diffusion of ITSM in industry, (2) since a certain level of research results has been accumulated, explanatory research rather than exploratory and/or descriptive studies should be pursued in the future, (3) research on the performance of ITSM is lacking, (4) research utilizing more objective data (secondary data obtained from ITSM systems) is needed. ITSM is innovation that can contribute to the improvement of productivity and competitiveness of organizations through systematic management of IT. It is expected that the research framework and implications of this study can assist future research efforts and practical utilization of ITSM.

Information Technology Service Management (ITSM) System has been adopted and operated by many governments and public institutions to intensify their global competitiveness. Recently these organizations are facing many problems because of the increased demands and complexity of Information Technology (IT) service. Especially, difficulty with ITSM gets bigger and bigger because of increasing IT outsourcing. An expectation regarding ITSM is grown up when facing to solve problems. Therefore, this study suggests effective alternatives about ITSM organization structure for public sectors. The ITSM organization structures changes from traditional structures based on functions to new structures based on its goal, customer, and its process. In other words, ITSM organizational structure can be composed of Service Strategy directorate, Service Design directorate, Service Transition directorate, Service Operation directorate, and Service Improvement directorate. To ensure the effectiveness and the professionalism of ITSM in an organization, this paper specifies the roles of participants and the responsibilities for each unit. The proposed ITSM organization structures will be useful for public sectors.

In order to realize the benefits of ITSM, it is necessary to institutionalize ITSM into the organizational culture. Currently, efforts to routinize ITSM lack in practice, and research in this area is also lacking. This study identifies the factors affecting the routinization of ITSM through literature review and interviews with experts, selects a company that has successfully routinized ITSM, and analyses the activities, methods, and procedures employed by the company on the factors in detail. The specific factors analyzed in the study include fulfillment of the customer requirements, top management support, communication, change management, training and education, quality of the ITSM system, and capability of the personnel. Important points verified in this study is that in order to realize organizational performance from ITSM, just the adoption of ITSM is not enough, but the routinization of ITSM through continuous and systematic management and improvement with the support of top management are required. Since this study is a descriptive case study, results of the study cannot be generalized. However, the study will provide practical information that can be referenced by the organizations attempting to routinize ITSM. In addition, results of the study will provide a basis of future research in ITSM.

Today, the role of IT is so important that it is regarded as a partner of business, not a simple supporter. The more important the role of IT becomes, the higher the level of business needs rises and the more customers want. In the market of IT, more and more enterprises are establishing ITSM processes based on the ITIL for these environments: however they are experiencing the processes of trial and errors because of the shortage of references To improve these problems, in this study, we developed the ITSM model defined by investigation of the instance to which we have applied the ITIL Continuous Service Improvement Process which contains five phases such as High level Business Objectives. Assessment. Measurable Targets, Process Improvement, Measurement and Metrics. This model is an ITSM building framework to understand the concepts over the length and breadth of ITIL and minimize the trial and errors appearing during the building of the ITSM processes, and this paper presents a plan to develop the frameworks.
