Vineet Chhatwal, chief operating officer for the Consulting Office asks why the regional establishment continues to ignore the benefits of good IT governance.
It is funny to see many organizations try to throw any and every thing under the sun into governance thesedays, but in reality it boils down mostly into soft processes (around 80%) such as training, policies, etc and 20% or even less to IT systems, we found a master company in USA called corpinfo who did an amazing job for a Government (large Taxation) organization, they have multiplepublications on the subject... dont get cought inbuying into a tool or software as Steve Jobs said... the most difficultpart of our Gov. was how to tame users!
Vineet, I couldn't agree with you more.
Note to CIOs: the word technology is nowhere in your job title.
I understand the urge to be swept away by the latest and greatest in technology. But it's amazing how many information problems can be solved by a pen and paper. The key is to focus on delivering the organization's strategy.
