Scott, imagine Norm said "I believe........" and that will solve the issue.
The bottom line is that the burden of proof is still on ITIL. If it's really that good, shouldn't there people everywhere with real world examples of its benefits? So far all I've seen are arguments one way or the other. Where's the real data to back up ITIL's claims? Andy L.

It begins: 100% correct. Not partially correct, not I agree with you that change costs money Your statement is "100% correct". Which means you back his entire post. Within that post Patrick makes the statements that I allude to below. So again, you have gone beyond skepticism to stating fact and I would like for you to produce the same documentation/case studies as you implore others to provide.

Hold the phone! You've been fair in quoting me up until this point. > My point is, and I'll state it again, I believe it is irresponsible for people to make statements about something, such as ITIL in this instance, that they have no proof of. Norm stated that he thought Patrick's comments were 100% correct. Patrick's comments were that 1. ITIL doesn't save money 2. ITIL doesn't save time 3. ITIL doesn't save energy 4. ITL doesn't make sense My exact word-for-word statement was this: "And Pat is right--all change costs money at some point in the change process." ________________________________________________________________________ ____ ___ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" ________________________________________________________________________ _______ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are" _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
