ISO/IEC 20000-3:2019 provides guidance on scope definition, applicability and demonstration of conformance for service providers aiming to meet the requirements of ISO/IEC 20000-1, or for service providers who are planning service improvements and intending to use ISO/IEC 20000 as a business goal.
Due to the fallacies of distributed computing, finding an adequate granularity is hard. [2] There is no single simple answer but a number of criteria exist (see below). A primary goal of service modeling and granularity design is to achieve loose coupling and modularity, which are two of the essential SOA principles, [3] and to address other architecturally significant requirements.
Managed services is the practice of outsourcing the responsibility for maintaining, and anticipating need for, a range of processes and functions, ostensibly for the purpose of improved operations and reduced budgetary expenditures through the reduction of directly-employed staff.
Subpart 37.2 defines advisory and assistance services and provides that the use of such services is a legitimate way to improve the prospects for program or systems success.

The master service agreement serves as a master contract governing the terms over potentially multiple SOWs. Sometimes it refers to scope of work. For instance, if a project is done on contract, the scope statement included as part of it can be used as the SOW since it also outlines the work of the project in clear and concise terms. [3]
Services are independent and control the functionality they encapsulate, from a Design-time and a run-time perspective. Service statelessness Services are stateless, that is either return the requested value or give an exception hence minimizing resource use. Service granularity A principle to ensure services have an adequate size and scope.

It aims at seamlessly integrating interdependent services from various internal and external service ...
'Service' in this context should not be confused with the IT meanings of 'service', such as a web service. This is somewhat confused by ITIL also recommending the adoption of service-oriented architecture, as expounded by OASIS. [4] In most technical contexts, SOA is widely assumed to imply the provision and interconnection of technical services.
