Stuck responding to RFPs rather than shaping them

The situation this course is for

High-margin service contracts are increasingly gated by formal service management certifications. Without ISO 20000 fluency, teams default to competing on cost instead of value, missing strategic positioning opportunities and long-cycle revenue.

Who this is for

Senior service delivery manager in a global consulting firm, focused on winning differentiated, high-margin client engagements

Who this is not for

Individuals seeking entry-level ITIL training or general process overviews without commercial application

What you walk away with

  • First access to client opportunities where ISO 20000 is a formal requirement
  • Repeatable positioning strategies for premium service bids
  • Client-ready maturity assessments used in recent six-figure engagements
  • Negotiation levers to shift from cost-based to value-based contracting
  • Internal credibility to lead ISO 20000-aligned delivery from intake to handover
