 IT Infrastructure Library - Beneath the Buzz - Leadership RC - CIO   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
ITIL is a great source of best practices for some (not all) IT functions, but its scope is limited and there are pitfalls in implementing it that can actually degrade the performance of an organization.
While ITIL is a useful tool to improve the performance of IT operational functions, common mistakes in its implementation have undermined not only the effectiveness of ITIL but, in some cases, of entire IT organizations.
ITIL should be applied as a tool when and where appropriate, within the context of a broader organizational strategy.

 Top ITIL Myths
Over the past 15 years, the ITIL body of knowledge continues to be enhanced and better organized, most significantly (in our opinion) in the form of the BS 15000, which divides all the ITIL disciplines into five key areas: Release, Controls, Resolution, Supplier Management, and Service Design and Delivery.
But even now, ITIL is still not in a form where you can simply distribute the ITIL volumes to your entire IT organization and expect everyone to know what issues to tackle first and what everyone's role should be.

 Cheat Sheet: Itil - IT Director - Breaking Business and Technology News at silicon.com
One which Itil promoters tout is lower IT costs because of the greater efficiency and productivity and better control of projects which it can bring about.
Itil should also ease the pain of switching infrastructures and outsourcing tasks because theoretically your processes will be similar to those at many other organisations.
This is meant to ease staffing so, for example, if you're an Itil shop you know an Itil-certified helpdesk worker should be able to get up to speed quickly because he or she should have some familiarity with your processes already.
