Struggling to align engineering workflows with service management standards?

The situation this course is for

Many electrical engineers in defense roles find ISO 20000 confusing because it's taught from an ITSM perspective, not an engineering systems perspective. This misalignment leads to redundant documentation, failed audit touchpoints, and missed opportunities to demonstrate value in service continuity.

Who this is for

Electrical engineers working in defense, aerospace, or critical infrastructure who are increasingly asked to comply with service management standards but lack a framework that speaks their language.

Who this is not for

This course is not for IT service managers learning ISO 20000 for the first time, nor for executives seeking high-level overviews. It's specifically for hands-on engineers bridging technical execution and compliance.

What you walk away with

  • Design ISO 20000-compliant service processes that reflect real engineering workflows
  • Produce audit-ready documentation that passes first-time review
  • Translate electrical system reliability metrics into service management evidence
  • Lead cross-functional alignment between engineering and operations teams
  • Anticipate auditor questions and prepare evidence proactively
