Why IT Maturity Is the Hidden Risk in IT Carve-Outs

In this episode of The ITSM Practice Podcast, Luigi Ferri explains why IT maturity is the decisive factor in successful IT carve-outs. From dependency mapping to ITIL v3 governance and continuity stress testing, the episode shows how disciplined IT Service Management prevents disruption, cost overruns, and failed separations during complex enterprise transitions.

In this episode, we answer to:

Where is the real boundary between what IT owns and what a carved-out unit must take?

What breaks first when a shared IT service disappears during a carve-out?

Why does IT governance need to come before architecture and migration design?
