 <link>http://www.itskeptic.org/uselessness-itil-process-maturity-assessment</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m looking at a &quot;classic&quot; process maturity assessment done by a consulting firm for a client, and what a useless document it is.  I&#039;m not saying who sent it to me or why or where from.  That isn&#039;t important here because so many assessments are similar.  Compare yours.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The report analyses 8 practices.  It doesn&#039;t say why those eight.  ITIL has 27 or so, COBIT about 40.  They are a typical eight: Incident, Request, Problem, Change, SACM, SLM, Knowledge, Catalogue.&lt;/p&gt;
