Viewing the Alignability Process Model

The Alignability Process Model describes service management processes in a simple four-level structure. The model provides easy and fast access to detailed information about actions that you need to perform in any given situation. This structure ensures that detailed instructions are always only clicks away from the model itself. By default, if the Alignability tab is not visible, contact your system administrator to configure the Alignability tab.
