Abstract
IT governance represents a journey (not an end state in
itself), which focuses on sustaining value and confidence across the business. Today, many companies start on a
narrow path or shot gun approach and focus on the compliance component (e.g. Sarbanes-Oxley) of IT
governance, without developing a balanced approach
consisting of both a top down framework and roadmap
together with bottom up implementation to address the
broad range of IT governance issues and opportunities in a
planned, coordinated, prioritized and cost effective manner.
While there is no single right way for organizations to
approach improvements in IT governance, this paper
proposes a comprehensive and integrated IT governance
framework and roadmap which identifies the appropriate
current and emerging best practice methodologies for
each of the major IT Governance components that must
be addressed in any approach.
