Another quiet release of the free (with registration) ITUP tool occurred recently. The FREE ITUP tool is a great reference for anyone seeking to gain insight into IT best practice areas such as ITILv3, COBIT, PRM-IT and eTOM. One of the unique features is a mapping to some of the common Tivoli tools so the monitoring groups can see how and where they can enable or support these process activities. The ITUP Composer incorporates the Rational Method Composer so you can customize and publish your own processes based on any of this content.
The new ITUP 7.1.1 release is available here and includes the following:
- Includes dedicated section on IT Governance.
- Includes a detailed mapping from the ITIL version 3 processes and practices to the ITUP processes and maps ITIL V3 processes to applicable IBM tools.
- IBM’s Process Reference Model for IT (PRM-IT) is included in the ITUP Tool. PRM-IT is a process reference model that covers all 41 processes under the control of the Chief Information Officer.
- Operational processes covered by ITIL best practices have been documented down to the granular task level.
