Service desk is always owned and managed by Service Providers to interface between them and their Customers. The answer "Service Provider" is right.

Makes no sense to contact a Service Providers and all of its users, so immediately option A is disregard it. Just think logically, no one contact or even has any interest on contacting a SP and all their users. WT%. From MPV it is Customer.

"Service desk forms a link between the service provider and the users of services". This question is tricky. Here it says the Service desk is entry point of contact for the ___ with all of its users. Service provider does not make sense here so the answer is C the customer with all its users can interact with Service desk "users of services"

B is correct: "The purpose of the service desk practice is to capture demand for incident resolution and service requests. It should also be the entry point and single point of contact for the service provider with all of its users." Ref 5.2.14

Question is worded incorrectly. The simple word "WITH" in the question makes the meaning and answer entirely different. Question should have been worded as "... AND all of its users."

5.2.14 - Service Desk: The purpose of the service desk practice is to capture demand for incident resolution and service requests. It should also be the entry point and single point of contact for the service provider with all of its users. ** We could understand this as citing the SD as the point of contact for us as consumers with the service provider in question.

the entry point for the Service Consumer is the Service Desk. the service provider is the one providing the service to the consumer. they are indirectly the service desk. A is the correct answer even if the material says it is.

By combining the information in section 5.2.14 with the broader context of service relationships and value creation discussed in other sections of ITIL 4, you can confidently assert that the service desk is the single point of contact for the customer.
