Invensis Learning is an EXIN Accredited Training Provider in New Zealand, approved to deliver official SIAM Foundation training using EXIN-aligned courseware and the EXIN SIAM Foundation Certification Examination Content Outline(ECO).
The SIAM Foundation exam validates your understanding of the Service Integration and Management (SIAM) methodology for managing multi-supplier service ecosystems. The exam focuses on the SIAM ecosystem and roles, the four SIAM structures (External, Internal, Hybrid, Lead Supplier), the SIAM roadmap, governance models, processes and practices, and challenges in multi-vendor environments. Through a combination of multiple-choice questions, candidates are tested on their ability to apply SIAM principles in real-world multi-supplier service environments.
SIAM Foundation has become a valued marker of service integration capability across New Zealand, sought by government agencies, IT managed-service providers, banks and telcos that run large, multi-supplier IT environments. As All-of-Government ICT models mature and cloud adoption accelerates, employers increasingly want professionals who can govern complex sourcing ecosystems. Demand spans service desk and delivery roles through to service integration and supplier-management leadership, and here is what the market is telling us right now.
SIAM Foundation is more than a certificate. It is the governance vocabulary New Zealand employers need to run multi-supplier IT. Join professionals who integrate providers and lead end-to-end service. Start your journey today.
New Zealand's IT market is shifting to multi-supplier and cloud-based delivery, and employers increasingly separate professionals who can govern that complexity from those who cannot. Here is which side of that line you want to be on.

The SIAM Foundation programme helps learners build service integration knowledge, practical governance skills and exam readiness. By the end, you can describe how to coordinate multiple providers and govern service delivery end to end.
SIAM Foundation training in New Zealand covers the full EXIN examination specification. You will define Service Integration and Management, the three-layer model of customer, service integrator and service providers, and the principles and benefits that underpin it.
Work through the four-stage SIAM journey: Discovery and Strategy, Plan and Build, Implement, and Run and Improve. Understand the internal, external, hybrid and lead-supplier service integrator sourcing models and when each fits.
Learn the roles across the three layers, from the customer organisation and retained functions to the SIAM Manager, service and process owners and supplier relationship managers, plus the governance boards and decision rights that hold the ecosystem together.
Build capability in collaboration, tooling and data integration, end-to-end performance management, and supplier management, the practices a service integrator uses to coordinate and improve multi-supplier service delivery.
Coordinate incident, problem, change and service level management when services span several providers. Learn how end-to-end SLAs, shared knowledge and integrated processes keep delivery coherent across organisational boundaries.
Recognise cultural, governance and tooling risks in SIAM adoption, and understand how SIAM aligns with ITIL, COBIT, ISO/IEC 20000, Agile and DevOps so you can position it within a wider service management landscape.
