IT Governance Advisory

Introduction

The challenge confronting today’s corporate world is no longer about implementing information technology. It is about unlocking IT enabled value through the aligning of business objectives with information technology strategy, measuring the performance of information technology, realising the perceived value from IT, managing the risk of using information technology (business value preservation), managing information technology resources (resource optimisation) and business assurance process (convergence).

The tone at the top has become imperatively crucial in the business governance of IT and we at EGIT aim to assist business organisations to tactically align their Information Technology (IT) strategy with the business strategy, ensure IT enterprise resources are used responsibly, manage organisational risk appropriately, deliver value, integrate the assurance process and measure the effectiveness and efficiency of IT in extending and sustaining enterprise wide strategy.

“Enterprise Governance of IT is not about just keeping the lights on (Fire Fighting). IT is not about the CIO presenting around the mahogany table once in every year. It is not about the Board learning new IT enabled business models through the press. It is about the Board proactively engaging in IT enabled business models to drive, sustain and extend enterprise strategy“
