This means standard IT services don’t have to be pro-
visioned from scratch. Instead, when you receive a
request for resources, you can select an appropriate

who frequently need IT resources, such as test and
development specialists, to request their own resources
from your self-service portal and its standard catalog
of infrastructure services.
