| Description: | Organisations now know that IT touches every area of the business and that good Corporate Governance requires good IT Governance. IT must be aligned with the business strategy and needs to deliver value for money.
In today’s economic climate it is imperative that organisations optimise their IT investments. Business executives are looking to IT to implement new solutions and projects. IT departments need to invest in infrastructure and systems to provide for the future. The role of the IT department is expanding and money is tightening.
How do you know you are targeting the right things ?
