Governance
Today’s businesses require greater return on their technology investments. A great technology alone will not guarantee that it will help an organization succeed. Technology is an enabler for real business success. The business goals and objectives must drive IT initiatives.
IT Governance is the framework for execution and measurement, in which the organization can attain its business goals and objectives with the support of IT initiatives. IT Governance starts at the top of the organization and ensures that the people, processes and the technology are aligned for success. It is driven through the organization to various centers of excellence. This will help ensure that the ongoing use of various technologies is aligned with the business, rather than for technology sake.
Solution specific Governance can be focused around specific technologies such as SharePoint, BizTalk, Security, Network Infrastructure, etc...
