Hi,

It's unclear what you're asking from the community. If you're new to the community, I'd recommend reading the following on how to write a question that will receive better support

Hi @jhonadel ,

Hi,

I'm not sure I fully understood your question, but based on what I understand, here's a brief overview of ITIL.

ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) is a framework of best practices for IT Service Management (ITSM). It helps organizations deliver high-quality IT services by defining standardized processes for managing the entire service lifecycle.

One of the key practices in ITIL is Change Management (called Change Enablement in ITIL 4). Its purpose is to ensure that changes to IT services are assessed, approved, implemented, and reviewed in a controlled manner, minimizing risk and reducing service disruptions.

The typical Change Management flow is:

  1. Raise a Request for Change (RFC).
  2. Assess the impact, risk, and priority.
  3. Review and approve the change (if required).
  4. Plan and schedule the implementation.
  5. Implement the change.
  6. Validate the results and close the change.
  7. Conduct a post-implementation review if necessary.

Common change types include:

  • Standard Change – Low-risk, pre-approved, and repeatable.
  • Normal Change – Requires assessment and approval before implementation.
  • Emergency Change – Implemented quickly to resolve critical incidents or major outages.

Regarding approvals:

  • RFC (Request for Change): The formal request submitted to introduce a change.
  • CAB (Change Advisory Board): A group of stakeholders who review and provide recommendations or approvals for significant or high-risk changes.
  • ECAB (Emergency CAB): A smaller group that handles urgent approvals for emergency changes.

If your question was specifically about Change Management, RFC, CAB, or how these are implemented in ServiceNow, please provide a little more detail and I'll be happy to explain further.
