IT Service Catalog Examples

Someone recently reminded me that it is always easier to edit than to create from scratch.

So in keeping with the release of our New Book on the importance of the IT Service Catalog I thought the readers of this blog might appreciate some links to examples available on the web.

However, before you go on to navigate the links in search of example service definitions I want to qualify that these links do not necessarily represent the best practices we discuss in our book. That being said they do provide you with a glimpse at some real organizations that are kind enough to put their cookies on the table for all to sample.

State of North Carolina

University of New South Wales

DCU

Purdue University

Kentucky Commonwealth

National Institute of Health

University of California at Santa Cruz

Stanford University

Clemson University

The Ohio State University

The University of Texas

MIT Information Services Technology

I trust that you find these sites useful

Important Note: Pink has just released an exciting new Online Education Offering Service Catalog Implementation Overview. Receive practical guidance, an online version of our Service Catalog Book and useful templates.

4. Note that it’s “Purdue” University…
   at least it’s spelled that way on *my* diploma.

7. Thanks Troy.
   That was a very useful post.

   I am currently working on formalizing the IT Architecture of a client and plan to build the framework around views of the Service Catalogs.

   So these references were just the thing I needed.

   Best regards

10. Thanks RL for the notice, can you imagine that they would not let me know of the website updates.

    Looks like Griffith has put their service catalog behind an internal portal and the other two site have updated their page address which I have adjusted.

    Cheers
