About the Service Request template
A Service Request is a formal ask for a specific, predefined service from a team or provider β think access provisioning, equipment setup, or a routine change. Capturing it in a structured form ensures the right details reach the fulfilling team, so work can be triaged, prioritized, and scheduled without back-and-forth. Consistent requests also feed accurate SLA tracking and capacity planning.
It's part of My QMS, MyPMP's Quality Management System: fill it in online, personalize it with your name and logo, then export a clean, branded PDF. Your work auto-saves in your browser.

- π‘Distinguish service requests from incidents β a broken service is an incident, a new or standard one is a request
- π‘Set a required-by date and realistic SLA up front to avoid ambiguous prioritization

FAQ
What is a Service Request?οΌ
It is a formal, structured ask for a predefined service β such as access, equipment, or a routine change β submitted to the team that fulfills it. It carries the details needed to triage, approve, and schedule the work.
How is a service request different from an incident?οΌ
An incident reports something broken or degraded that needs restoring, while a service request asks for something new or standard to be provided. They usually follow different SLAs and workflows.
Does a service request need approval?οΌ
Standard, low-risk requests are often pre-approved and fulfilled directly, but requests involving cost, elevated access, or exceptions typically require a manager or budget-owner sign-off before work begins.
