What Is IT Operations Management?

SysAid’s Glossary of Terms

  • Overview

    IT Operations Management (ITOM) refers to the administrative processes and tools that manage the delivery, control, and support of IT services across an organization. In ITSM, it’s how teams ensure infrastructure, systems, and services are running reliably and securely—with minimal downtime or manual effort.

  • How Does IT Operations Management Deliver Control and Continuity?

    As hybrid environments and distributed systems become the norm, ITOM provides a critical layer of control. It governs everything from asset lifecycle and infrastructure monitoring to identity management and change approvals.

    When integrated into your service desk, ITOM empowers IT teams to:

    • Detect and respond to issues before they impact users

    • Automate repetitive tasks

    • Enforce governance over system access

    • Align IT activity with business priorities

  • What Should You Look for in an ITOM Solution?

    Not all ITOM tools are built for the service desk. Modern teams should look for a platform that offers:

    An ideal solution doesn’t just centralize IT operations—it simplifies them.
