Service measurement plays an important role in IT service management that is one of the subfields of Services
Computing science [1]. Many IT service organizations consider the measurement of IT service management processes,
especially service support processes, as a difficult task.
Difficulties are mainly due to the following four reasons:
1) IT organizations do not have a structured approach for
measuring IT services and service management processes,
2) tools used by service support teams do not enable
effective measurement, 3) IT service management standards
and frameworks do not provide practical examples how
to measure support processes, and 4) there are too many
options what to measure in service management.
First, IT organizations need a structured approach for
measuring IT service support processes. The IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is the most widely used framework
for IT service management. The support processes of ITIL
include incident management, problem management, change
management, configuration management, and release management. In this paper, we focus on the first two processes
that are often called front-end support processes [2]. The
main objective of incident management process is to deal
with all incidents including failures, questions and queries

ITSM-MS is that it provides real-time measurement information from IT service support processes. The ITSM-MS
can be used by process managers, product managers and
project managers to monitor the performance of IT service
management.
However, there are some limitations to this study. The
study was carried out in one business unit of the case
organization. The requirements were gathered only from few
employees of the case organization. The introduction phase
of the system was not performed during our pilot project.
However, the application service manager and IT service
manager informed that the ITSM-MS had been introduced
to some process managers in the case organization. It had
received positive feedback.
Further research is needed to investigate the introduction
of the systematic measurement process as a part of continuous service improvement. Additionally, we could collect
feedback from the users of the ITSM-MS and implement
the second version of the system.
