Book Description
ITIL® is the globally adopted framework for designing, delivering, and improving value-driven IT services. Ultimate ITIL® 4 for Intelligent and Sustainable Service Management builds on that foundation to demystify the rapidly evolving world of AI-powered IT Service Management, connecting ITIL® 4 principles with machine learning, NLP, automation, AIOps, Agile, DevOps, and sustainability.

Progressing from ITIL® 4 fundamentals to advanced AI-enabled practices, the book explores how incident management, change enablement, problem management, service requests, knowledge management, and governance evolve in an intelligent, data-driven operating model.

Through structured chapters, maturity models, and real-world scenarios, it addresses both the opportunities and risks of AI adoption—covering governance, ethics, resilience, and ESG alignment—while guiding teams from reactive operations to predictive and autonomous service delivery.

Written for ITSM practitioners, service desk and operations leaders, consultants, and transformation professionals, this book equips readers with practical frameworks, execution playbooks, and strategic insights to modernize service operations, improve customer experience, and demonstrate measurable business value.
