IT service management

How mature is your IT service management?

Answer 20 questions across six categories and see where your service desk sits on the five-level ITIL 4 maturity ladder, with a breakdown that shows exactly where to focus next.

Most IT teams know roughly how they are doing, but rarely have a shared, honest baseline. This scan gives you one. It is built on the same five-level ladder that CMMI and ITIL 4 use, from reactive and ad hoc at level one to optimized and AI-driven at level five.

The 20 questions are grouped into six categories: process, automation and AI, knowledge and self-service, assets and configuration, analytics and reporting, and governance and benchmarking. You get an overall level plus a score per category, so you can see where you are strong and where the quickest wins are. Nothing is sent anywhere and you never enter an email, so you can take it as an honest internal benchmark.

What the scan measures

  • Process

    Whether incident, change, problem and request management run to a repeatable, documented standard.

  • Automation & AI

    How much routine triage, routing and resolution happens without a human in the loop.

  • Knowledge & self-service

    Whether answers are reused and end users can resolve common requests themselves.

  • Assets & configuration

    Whether you have a live CMDB with dependencies and licences, not a stale spreadsheet.

  • Analytics & reporting

    Whether SLA, MTTR and cost are measured live, or pulled together by hand when someone asks.

  • Governance & benchmarking

    Whether you run a real improvement loop, stay audit-ready, and benchmark against targets and peers.

Process

Whether incident, change, problem and request management run to a repeatable, documented standard.

How are incidents logged and routed today?

How do you handle changes to live services?

What happens with recurring incidents?

How do users request standard services (access, hardware)?

Automation & AI

How much routine triage, routing and resolution happens without a human in the loop.

How much of your L1 volume is handled without a person?

How are routine tasks (password resets, provisioning) handled?

Does your tooling act on its own or only suggest?

How are issues detected before users report them?

Knowledge & self-service

Whether answers are reused and end users can resolve common requests themselves.

Where does your team's knowledge live?

Can end users resolve common requests themselves?

How does a resolved ticket improve the next one?

Assets & configuration

Whether you have a live CMDB with dependencies and licences, not a stale spreadsheet.

How well do you know what assets you have?

Do you know how services and assets depend on each other?

How do you track software and licences?

Analytics & reporting

Whether SLA, MTTR and cost are measured live, or pulled together by hand when someone asks.

How do you measure SLA and resolution times?

How current is your view of service performance?

Do you understand the cost and effort behind your services?

Governance & benchmarking

Whether you run a real improvement loop, stay audit-ready, and benchmark against targets and peers.

What do you do with the data you collect?

How audit-ready is your service operation?

Do you benchmark performance against targets or peers?

The five maturity levels

  1. Level 1 of 5

    Reactive

    Service runs on individual effort and tribal knowledge. Work is logged inconsistently, nothing is measured, and the same incidents come back. The priority is to get everything into one place and start measuring.

  2. Level 2 of 5

    Managed

    You have a tool and a basic process, but routing and approvals are still manual and knowledge is thin. Things work, until volume spikes. Documenting routing and capturing knowledge are the next steps.

  3. Level 3 of 5

    Defined

    Incident, change and problem management follow a documented standard and a maintained knowledge base. The foundation is solid; automation, a live CMDB and real analytics are the next lever.

  4. Level 4 of 5

    Measured

    You run on data: live SLA and MTTR dashboards, a real CMDB and proactive problem management. You catch issues before they spread. AI, benchmarking and cross-domain unification are what take you further.

  5. Level 5 of 5

    Optimized

    AI resolves a large share of L1 autonomously, knowledge is surfaced in context, dashboards are live, and you benchmark continuously against targets and peers. You are operating at the front of the field.

Frequently asked

How long does the ITSM maturity scan take?

Around seven minutes. It is 20 multiple-choice questions across six categories, and you see your level and a per-category breakdown the moment you finish.

What maturity model is the scan based on?

The five-level ladder shared by CMMI and ITIL 4, from reactive (level one) to optimized (level five), measured across process, automation, knowledge, assets, analytics and governance.

Do I have to share my data or email to see the result?

No. The scan is free and asks for nothing. It scores your answers in your browser and shows the result instantly, so you can use it as an honest internal benchmark.

What does the result show?

Your overall maturity level, a score for each of the six categories, and where you are not yet strong, how Gfacility helps you close the gap.
