ITCM VS ITAM

Some Asset Managers consider Asset Management to be very similar to Configuration management.

However there are differences:

Asset management manages the financial life cycle of an Asset.

Assets’ life cycle; right from the inception to the retirement/disposal phase. Assets are managed by Asset management ??? Not convinced that this is very important.

Asset Requisition,
Asset Procurement,
Asset Inventory,
Asset Maintenance,
Asset Reporting,
Asset Disposal.

Configuration management is Management / Administration of IT CI's Operation assets
- involves the management planning
- CI identification and tracking
- CI Control
- CI Verification

Example :
- BUILDING CAN BE Asset but not a CI
- Server can be both an asset that can be tracked and by Configuration Management, since the server is an IT Asset in that should be tracked via Asset management since there is a cost involved.
