IT Investment Management & Governance

Management of IT investments (e.g. allocation of IT resources, funding of projects) will align with the County’s strategic objectives and the General Management System.

Rationale:

Focusing IT investments on the County’s most important priorities maximizes business benefit achieved from IT resources.

Implications:

· IT investments will be well-defined by business cases to:

o   Provide an analysis of costs, benefits, value and risks

o   Demonstrate compliance with County Service Levels

· IT investments will be guided by defined governance with equitable representation from executive, business and technology groups.
