ASL Self-Assessment / druk 1

The ASL Self-Assessment Workbook is a tool which will give you insight into the way in which ASL processes are established within your organisation. This will provide you with a clear view of how your organisation is managed and what the consequences are. The aim of ASL, the Applications Services Library, is to professionalize application management, not only within a single organisation but also as a standardising factor covering various ones. Amongst other things, it fits in with ITIL, which mainly focuses on the establishment of technical management organisations. ASL consists of a framework and a library of best practices in the field of application management. In this respect, application management is the 'entity'which maintains the functionality and operations of applications (software, databases and administrative documentation). ASL seeks to use information systems to provide optimum support for business processes throughout the latter's lifecycle.
