43 | C41 | Service offer | A proposal from a service provider (service system) to a service consumer (service system) for a potential future service engagement | The definition was changed (Chrnis 5062014 RFC) on 20-06-2014 from "A coherent collection of services, accompanied by a set of agreements, which is offered as a whole to consumers" Description is partly based on definitions from ArchiMate 2.1. The ITIL concept of a Service Package is covered by the Service Offering class, which is not in line with the understanding in ITIL but fits with general service management theories such as Christian Grönroos etc. | Service offering Service Agreement | Governance Management Stakeholder Goals cascade Lifecycle Requirements Management system Risk Warranty Compliance and controls Outsourced Insourced Service provider Service consumer In-side-out Out-side-in | Class | Product | The Taking Service Forward initiative (Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License) | Draft | 2014-06-20 RFC Chrnis 5062014 2013-12-31 Christian F.

44 | C26 | Service outcome | The consequences for the stakeholders involved in a specific service act between one or more service systems | The definition was changed (Colin.Rudd 11062014 RFC) on 06-07-2014 from "The service utility, warranty, output and capability elevation valued by the involved service systems, and possibly other stakeholders, in a specific service act." The definition was changed (Chrnis 5062014 RFC) on 20-06-2014 from "An observable result of a service. An outcome is an artefact, a significant change of state or the meeting of specified constraints. Outcome might be positive or negative, intended or unintended, directly or indirectly caused by the service. Often outcomes, unlike outputs, are not directly controllable. The outcome may realize, or destroy, value for the service consumer, service provider and possibly other stakeholders" Description is based on definition from ISO/IEC 15504 and principles from ITIL 2011 Service Strategy (Money spent -> value added -> value realized) For example, the desired outcome of a new service might be for the company's market share to increase - but the service can only affect that indirectly and many other factors also affect market share so the actual contribution of the service (through its outputs) to the market share might be difficult, or impossible, to measure. | Benefit realization Resource optimization Risk optimization Capability elevation | Better Faster Cheaper | Service provider / Service consumer Output State change Insight | Governance Management Stakeholder Goals cascade Requirements Risk Compliance and controls Outsourced Insourced Service provider Service consumer In-side-out Out-side-in | Class | Value | The Taking Service Forward initiative (Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License) | Draft | 2014-07-06 RFC Colin.Rudd 11062014 2014-06-20 RFC Chrnis 5062014 2013-12-31 Christian F.

45 | C27 | Service output | An artefact associated with the delivery of a service. The output is intended to add value for the service consumer and service provider. Outputs are measurable, generally directly controllable and intended to contribute to the desired outcome. Outputs are designed to produce the outcomes that are required but since the outcomes may not be directly controlled by the outputs they may not be achieved even if all outputs are correct. | Description is based on definitions from ISO/IEC 15504 and COBIT5 as well as the principles from ITIL 2011 Service Strategy (Money spent -> value added -> value realized) | Service provider / Service consumer Service Compensation Outcome | Governance Management Stakeholder Goals cascade Requirements Management system Risk Warranty Compliance and controls Outsourced Insourced Service provider Service consumer In-side-out Out-side-in | Class | Business object | The Taking Service Forward initiative (Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License) | Draft | 2014-06-20 RFC Chrnis 5062014 2013-12-31 Christian F.

46 | C34 | Service relationship | An aggregate of two or more roles that work together to perform collective behavior. A relationship represents a latent service engagement. | Description is based on definitions from ArchiMate 2.1 and the works of Christian Grönroos The attribute 'Type' is based on the taxonomy of Rinehart, Handfield, Atkins, and Page, 2004, Journal of Business Logistics | Non-strategic transactions Administered relationship Contractual relationship Partnership Joint venture Alliance | Awareness Nurture Desire Engage Support Loyalty Advocacy Termination | Service provider / Service consumer Engagement Service interaction | Governance Management Stakeholder Capability Risk Outsourced Insourced Service provider Service consumer In-side-out Out-side-in | Class | Business collaboration | The Taking Service Forward initiative (Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License) | Draft | 2014-06-20 RFC Chrnis 5062014 2013-12-31 Christian F.

47 | C39 | Service system (provider, consumer, integrator etc.) | A dynamic configuration of resources and intents whose purpose is to create value with other service systems through co-creation | The definition was changed (Johann Botha 2022015 RFC) on 20-02.2015 from "A dynamic configuration of intents, capabilities and resources that can create value with other service systems through co-creation." The attribute "Service Capability" was added (Johann Botha 2022015 RFC) on 20-02.2015. Capability was formerly an indenpendent object in the meta model but was changed to an attribute of a Service System as part of the RFC. The definition was changed (Chrnis 5062014 RFC) on 20-06-2014 from "Role that requests and consumes services / Role that creates and provides services" Own description. Consider to combine the Service Consumer and Service Provider in one Service Actor object, leaving room for other roles in this place in the model, e.g. Service Broker or Service Aggregator The attribute 'Life cycle' is based on Adizes organizational life cycle.

52 | C47 | Way of working | A manifested practice | Own description Alternative: 'The collection of manifest practice, based on tradition, habit, culture, best practice and the collective knowledge and experience of practitioners of the particular way of working'. As an example, perhaps, the 'way of working' in accountancy includes the use of tools like calculators, spreadsheets and ledgers but is informed by established rules and guidelines as well as a habit of mind that involves meticulous attention to detail, an intolerance of even minor errors or deviations and a vigilance for evidence that might suggest malpractice or fraud.' - An accountant would give a much better explanation of the practice, but the idea is to show that the 'way of working' is more than just an observation of what is done, but includes, at least, all those things. | Procedure Case-based Pattern | Process Guidance Procedure Case Pattern | Management Organization Goals cascade Management system Capability Compliance and controls Outsourced Insourced Service provider Service consumer In-side-out | Class | Business process | The Taking Service Forward initiative (Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License) | Draft | 2013-12-31 Christian F.
