An Overview of IT Governance
What is IT Governance?


“IT governance is the responsibility of the
board of directors and executive management.
It is an integral part of enterprise governance
and consists of the leadership and
organisational structures and processes that
ensure that the organisation’s IT sustains and
extends the organisation’s strategies and
objectives.”

                    Value delivery is about executing the value proposition throughout the delivery cycle,
                    ensuring that IT delivers the promised benefits against the strategy, concentrating on
                    optimising expenses and proving the value of IT, and on controlling projects and
                    operational processes with practices that increase the probability of success (quality,

                    Risk management requires risk awareness of senior corporate officers, a clear under-
                    standing of the enterprise’s appetite for risk and transparency about the significant
                    risks to the enterprise; it embeds risk management responsibilities in the operation of
                    the enterprise and specifically addresses the safeguarding of IT assets, disaster

P09.6 Maintenance and Monitoring of a Risk Action Plan
Prioritise and plan the control activities at all levels to implement the risk responses
identified as necessary, including identification of costs, benefits and responsibility for
execution. Obtain approval for recommended actions and acceptance of any residual
risks, and ensure that committed actions are owned by the affected process owner(s).
Monitor execution of the plans, and report on any deviations to senior management.

   Contributing to our strategic objectives?               Clear accountability for realising the benefits?
   Providing optimal value, at affordable cost, at         Relevant metrics?
   an acceptable level of risk?                            An effective benefits realisation process?

The Business Challenge
      Maximizing value and reducing risk made possible
       by IT both enables and requires a through IT
       governance approach that:
          Ensures clarity of, and accountability for the desired
           outcomes
          Enables understanding of the full scope of effort
          Breaks down the “silos” and “connects the dots”
          Manage the full economic life-cycle
          Senses and responds to changes and deviations




       This is a significant leadership challenge,
             opportunity and responsibility!
