Over the past
decades, the IT department has moved from being a commodity
service provider to a strategic partner where IT is viewed as a
tool for increasing business growth rather than just an expense.
The discipline of information technology governance derives from
corporate governance and deals primarily with the connection
between business focus and IT management of an organization. It
highlights the importance of IT related matters in contemporary
organizations and states that strategic IT decisions are to be
made by the board,
rather than
handled by the chief information officer or
other IT managers. The primary goal for
information technology governance is to assure
that the investments in IT generate business
value and the mitigation of risks associated
with IT.
his can be done by
implementing an organizational structure with clear roles for
the responsibility of information, business processes,
applications, infrastructure, etc. Depending of an
organization’s business, scope and IT maturity; centralized,
decentralized or federated responsibility for strategic IT
matters are suggested. Well defined control of IT is the key to
success.
