ITIL best practices focus on better management of all interrelated IT processes, continual improvement on these processes, and aligning IT with overall business objectives. More and more, organizations depend on technology to help align their own complex IT departments with the concepts described in ITIL, which is traditionally technology agnostic. The TechExcel Service Suite ITIL Solution Pack is a software solution designed to manage the complex relationships that exist between various IT processes, activities, users, workflows, and assets.
