The core concept behind IT governance is making sure that organizations align business strategy with IT strategy. This means that goal of IT governance is ultimately to ensure that the processes governing evaluation, selection, prioritization, and funding of competing IT investments are driven by the overall business.
There are two distinct phases of IT governance: the first is determining what the IT organization works on, and this is driven by the business. The second is determining how the IT organization supports the business goals of the organization, which is a CIO responsibility.
An IT governance framework puts mechanisms in place to measure how the IT department is functioning overall, what are the key management metrics, and what return IT is giving back to the business from the investment it’s making.
IT governance is usually accompanied by processes to manage risk across the enterprise and also to ensure compliance with multiple regulations including Basel II, SOX and additional financial reporting, data privacy, and industry regulations.
