ITIL as a Managed Service

Join itSMF Houston for a complimentary meeting the morning of November 8 at the Houston Community College Spring Branch Campus, conveniently located at I-10 and the West Sam Houston Parkway.

Almost every IT organization uses third-party, Managed Service Providers (MSPs) for at least some portions of their operations, whether it be for telecommunications backbone circuits, application development, or service desk augmentation. As utilization of cloud computing increases, so does our visble reliance upon MSPs.

Come learn about ITIL as a Managed Service, a timely topic for every IT manager. The meeting is free of charge, but advance registration is required. Reserve your place today at this important meeting.
