Information Governance Services

Governance at its essence is about decision-making and communications. The need for good governance stems from the need of organizations to make good decisions and communicate them effectively.

Often, when faced with poor outcomes, the organization needs to review how the decisions were made and put in place structures which support better decisions going forward.

These decisions can be large, such as whether to invest in a new initiative or approve an annual report; or the decision can be routine, such as whether to provide access to sensitive data or include software code in a release.

The Importance of Information Governance Services

Developing an effective strategy with information governance professionals allows you to:

Common Challenges in IT Governance

If your organization is like most, you’ve invested substantially in building IT architectures that are designed to support business objectives. However, as new projects continuously arise, you get caught up in more immediate goals and tasks. Several factors can impact whether or not you maintain effective IT governance.

Lack of Goal-Oriented Focus

When new projects lead to new applications, which also need to be managed and maintained, you can quickly lose sight of goals altogether and focus on the next thing that comes in instead of high value initiatives that drive business value. Before you know it, you’ve forgotten why you began those initiatives in the first place.

Decreased Performance

Here is where you find yourself in a “reactive” state where you can only accomplish what is right in front of you and it’s not until the next yearly planning session that you realize how far off track you really are. It’s time to get back to business and focus on the projects that drive business forward and contribute to the bottom line. Of course, you will still have maintenance projects that keep things going, but you will need to extend within your model to include those initiatives that advance your organization.

Outdated Strategies

The reactive state is a slippery slope for IT organizations, as request demand is only increasing, new technology begins to crowd on top of legacy systems, and IT executives are struggling to stay ahead of the trends. Digital innovation is playing a major role in how businesses are fighting to achieve competitive dominance in their markets. However, it’s important to slow down, prioritize, and consider what you are building, why you are building it, and how you can most efficiently and effectively manage it all.
