However, the ability to identify potential problems and resolve same rapidly in an attempt to reduce Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) i.e., the time it takes to fix a faulty system or component is a hallmark of proactive network management initiative necessary for a sustained IT services to an organisation. This initiative is achieved by deploying good network management model. This study therefore, attempts to X-ray the operational structure of FCAPS (Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, Security) network management model and ITIL service management framework and a mapping of their approaches and how they relate to each other in providing sustained IT service for organisation&#146;s business improvement
