You Don't Need Every Part of ITIL

Any reputable player in ITIL marketplace will honestly tell not everyone needs ITIL, and those who could use ITIL don't need every bit of it. There is nothing wrong with that, and anyone who won't tell a person this is trying to sell him something he probably doesn't need. Many have made a tidy living convincing clients they need full maturity in every ITIL discipline. Again, this is just plain wrong. The person only need to implement those parts of ITIL he need and find appropriate, and he only need to mature them to the state required to do the job he need. Thus a real ITIL implementation will only consist of the processes required and within those processes only those activities needed.
