You will be analysing a study which was prepared to help National Discovery for Science Leaders (NDSL) in Korea to adopt and embrace ISO 20000. In doing so you will critique the approach taken to preparing for this journey and will use your knowledge of ISO 20000 to assess the relative strengths and weaknesses of the study. You will further demonstrate a broad knowledge of ISO 20000 by highlighting key areas of ISO 20000 which this study may have overlooked. Lastly, you will directly evaluate the technical accuracy of this study and its understanding of ISO 20000 using your own knowledge and understanding.

Consider the approach to ISO 20000 certification that is proposed in this study, and how effective this study might be in preparing its organisation for ISO 20000 certification. From your knowledge of ISO 20000 and its implementation, consider the following four questions/requirements;
