ITIL4F Four Dimensions of IT Service Management Practice Question
A company is implementing a new CRM system. They have selected the software and designed the workflows, but they have not yet defined the roles and responsibilities for using the system. Which dimension is being neglected?
⚠ Common exam trap
It's easy for candidates to confuse 'Value Streams and Processes' (Option C) with the missing roles, but the question explicitly states workflows are already designed, so the gap is in the human side, not the process flow.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Organisations and People
The question states that the software and workflows are already designed, but roles and responsibilities have not been defined. This directly addresses the 'Organisations and People' dimension, which covers roles, responsibilities, skills, and culture needed to operate the service. Neglecting this dimension means users will not know who performs which tasks, leading to confusion and operational failure despite having the right technology and processes.
