This could include financial contribution from various countries. The overall goal of the initiative is to achieve efficiencies and cost reductions through the centralization of processes and data for reporting across country - based IT departments.

What is the BEST way for best practice to be adapted to achieve the project goals?

Choose the Choices:

Utilize the process flows already available in the ITSM toolset because this requires least rework and is the lowest cost option.

Use the best of the current processes from each country because costs will be reduced if the same solution is accepted by all of them.

Utilize the ITIL guidance as a framework for the new processes because this will improve support and achieve cost reduction.

Replace all current processes with fully ITIL aligned versions because this will allow easy automation to cut costs.
