Definitions

Pattern of Business Activity (PBA)

Patterns of Business Activity (PBA) are workload profiles describing the demand for particular services.
PBAs are an important tool used by Demand Management for anticipating and influencing service demand.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Strategy > Demand Management

PIR

→ Post Implementation Review

Post Implementation Review (PIR)

The Post Implementation Review takes place after a Change has been implemented.
It determines if the Change and its implementation Project were successful, and identifies opportunities for improvement.
→ Checklist Post Implementation Review (PIR)
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Change Management

Pro-Active User Information

A notification to users of existing or imminent service failures even if the users are not yet aware of the interruptions, so that users are in a position to prepare themselves for a period of service unavailability.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Operation > Incident Management

Problem

A cause of one or more Incidents. The cause is not usually known at the time a Problem Record is created.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Operation > Problem Management

Problem Categorization

→ ITIL sub-process, Problem Categorization and Prioritization

Problem Closure

→ Checklist Closure of a Problem
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Operation > Problem Management

Problem Identification

→ ITIL sub-process, Proactive Problem Identification

Problem Management

→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Operation > Problem Management

Problem Management Report

A report supplying Problem-related information to the other Service Management processes.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Operation > Problem Management

Problem Manager

→ Roles within ITIL, Problem Manager

Problem Priority

→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Operation > Problem Management

Problem Record

The Problem Record contains all details of a Problem, documenting the history of the Problem from detection to closure.
→ ITIL Checklist Problem Record
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Operation > Problem Management

Problem Report

→ Checklist Problem Report

Process and Asset Valuation

An estimate of the value a process or other asset represents for the business.
This value is an important input for Risk Analysis.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Design > Risk Management

Process Architect

→ Roles within ITIL, Process Architect

Process Architecture

An overview of all processes and process interfaces, used as a tool to make sure that all processes within an organization cooperate in a seamless way.
The Process Architecture is part the Enterprise Architecture.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) > Process Evaluation

Process Area

Process Area is a CMMI® [3] term with the following (CMMI) definition: "A cluster of related practices in an area that, when implemented collectively, satisfy a set of goals considered important for making significant improvement in that area".
In the context of ITIL this would mean that the top level processes such as (for example) Incident Management would be a Process Area. The Logging and Categorization of an Incident would constitute a Process within that Process Area.

Process Assessment Guideline

A guideline describing the four most-often used approaches to evaluate the underlying service management processes: Process Maturity Assessments, Benchmarks, Audits and Process Reviews.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) > Process Evaluation

Process Audit

→ ITIL sub-process, Process Audit

Process Benchmarking

→ ITIL sub-process, Process Benchmarking

Process Design

The description of a process including its in- and outputs, activities, and responsibilities.
Process Designs are under the control of Process Management.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) > Process Evaluation

Process Evaluation

→ ITIL processes, ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) > Process Evaluation

Process Evaluation Program

The purpose of the Process Evaluation Program is to make sure all relevant processes and areas of the organization are subject to regular Process Maturity Assessments, Benchmarks, Audits and/ or Process Reviews, as appropriate.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) > Process Evaluation

Process Evaluation Report

The results from a Process Maturity Assessment, Benchmarking, Audit, or Process Review, including identified shortcomings and areas which must be addressed by improvement initiatives.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) > Process Evaluation

Process Maturity Assessment

→ ITIL sub-process, Process Maturity Assessment

Process Metric (KPI)

Process Metrics (Key Performance Indicators – KPIs) define what is to be measured and reported to help manage a process.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Continual Service Improvement (CSI) > Process Evaluation

Process Owner

→ Roles within ITIL, Process Owner

Project Charter

The Project Charter is a statement of the scope, objectives and participants in a project.
It outlines the project objectives, identifies the main stakeholders, defines the authority of the Project Manager and the resources at his disposal, and lists any constraints and assumptions affecting the project.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Project Management - Transition Planning and Support

Project Control

→ ITIL sub-process, Project Management - Transition Planning and Support#ITIL Project Management Control

Project Coordination

→ ITIL sub-process, Project Planning and Coordination

Projected Service Availability (PSA)

A Document that identifies the effect of planned Changes on agreed Service Levels, based on the Forward Schedule of Change (FSC).
→ ITIL processes, Change Management - ITIL V2

Projected Service Outage (PSO)

The Projected Service Outage (PSO) document lists any expected deviations from the service availability agreed in SLAs.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Change Management

Project History Log

A document recording important events during the course of the project, e.g. decisions, escalations and changes to the project scope.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Project Management - Transition Planning and Support

Project Management (Transition Planning and Support)

→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Project Management - Transition Planning and Support

Project Manager

→ Roles within ITIL, Project Manager

Project Plan (Service Transition Plan)

A Project Plan (in ITIL also referred to as Service Transition Plan) is a formal, approved document showing the major deliverables, milestones, activities and resources for a project, used to guide both project execution and project control.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Project Management - Transition Planning and Support

Project Portfolio Status Report

The Project Portfolio Status Report is an overall summary of all planned or ongoing projects, listing key project data like milestones and current project status.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Transition > Project Management - Transition Planning and Support

Purchase Order

An order for purchasing items from a supplier.
If the order is for an externally supplied Supporting Service it is accompanied by an Underpinning Contract defining service level targets.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Design > Supplier Management

Purchase Request

A request to purchase a service or a product from an external supplier, issued for example from Release Management during Service Build.
Processing of a Purchase Request will generally proceed only if the requester also holds an approved budget for the purchase.
→ ITIL processes, ITIL Service Design > Supplier Management
