I have seen people discuss pros & cons of having a person with ITIL or PMP know how.
This has made me think that how and in what way a person having knowledge of both will impact the project/operation/people

The focus is different and it is key to understand that. Project Manager is a generalist. So, PMP certification is intended for this propose. ITIL is specific. Because the focus is different there is not problem to have both certifications.

Indeed - it is especially helpful when you are a PM for IT infrastructure projects!

I think that having an ITIL Foundation certification could improve your overall understanding of specific IT implementations and help ypu to better map the requirements.

PMP certification will give you the credibility to manage projects. However, the ITIL intermediate certs will enhance your abilities as a project manager both in and outside of IT. The ITIL expert certification will enable you to think more strategically. It will also provide additional insight to allow you to better guide the project owner and project team throughout the lifecycle of the project.

Having ITIL expertise along with Project Management made the job easier as I was a Infrastructure PM and was part of big team in a NOC. Both the certifications played a significant part in managing the project.
