Best practice frameworks, such as ITIL, are crucial and
necessary for IT service management [1]. Several IT
information systems have been developed, such as Service
Now [3], IBM Tivoli [4], etc. IBM Tivoli and Service Now are
software tools. Nevertheless, since it is difficult to have a good
interpretation of best practices, to implement them in an
Information System is not a simple assignment.
Current information systems are directed to the automatic
selection of activities and process flows of IT service
management when they should be based on organizations and
their needs, supporting the cooperation and coordination of all
the diverse parties involved in the process [5].
To address this problem we propose a requirements
elicitation method based on a Customer Relationship
Management (CRM) approach. Applying a CRM approach in
the development of an Information System to support ITIL
processes aims at: allowing an easy adoption of ITIL processes
by organizations; easing system users’ adaptation in order to
decrease change resistance; creating a single point of contact in
order to decrease the risk of information loss; and meeting the
users' needs depending on the user type. By achieving the
previous goals, it will be possible to improve services quality
resulting in value creation and increased customer satisfaction
