IT Governance Framework Announced

IT Governance Limited has announced a new IT governance framework (titled the Calder-Moir IT Governance Framework) that brings together multiple disciplines, including information technology, risk management, project management, strategy, intellectual property, business design and compliance.

"Until today, no single tool has provided a full picture of IT governance”, says Alan Calder, CEO of IT Governance Limited. “Collectively, existing tools have often given a confusing impression that actually hinders the purpose of IT governance, which is to equip boards with information and levers for directing, evaluating and monitoring how well IT supports their core businesses. The newIT Governance Framework directly addresses this concern.”

To view the framework, visit http://www.itgovernance.co.uk/page.framework. It's based upon Alan Calder’s book, IT GovernanceToday – A Practitioner’s Handbook, which is available at Link.

In addition to the framework and the book, the IT Governance Toolkit, which, according to Calder, will provide "a comprehensive suite of policies, procedures and task sheets" will be launched in Q2 2006.
