conference focus

In the current economic climate companies are constantly searching for ways to decrease cost while increasing revenue, and are calling upon IT governance practitioners to make it happen. By revamping governance processes and systems, the IT function is able to provide better support to the business and help the company reach financial targets. Not only will stable governance frameworks help prevent another financial crisis, but those with sound systems in place will be those to emerge from the recession with a strong competitive advantage.

This premier marcus evans conference will illuminate the best practices for utilising IT governance to achieve business goals. Delegates will learn how to strategically align IT and business targets, build an IT gov business case and establish a system of effective IT financial management. Delegates will depart this conference with the knowledge of how to use project and portfolio management to optimise governance practices and harness enterprise architecture as a tool. By reducing system complexities and adding value to governance processes, IT Gov will effectively assert itself as a value adding business support.
