Samverkan mellan IT och verksamhet - Ett IT-styrningsperspektiv / Aligning IT and business - An IT governance perspectiveStomberg, Daniel January 2014 (has links)
För dagens verksamheter ter sig marknaden allt tuffare och för dess långsiktiga överlevnad måste dess olika delar fungera och tillsammans bilda en väl fungerande helhet. Samverkan (alignment) är en allt mer betydelsefull pusselbit i det som idag utgör en framgångsrik verksamhet. Ur ett strategiskt perspektiv är IT-styrning en stor del i denna framgång. IT-styrning är en av flera komponenter nödvändiga för att åstadkomma samverkan mellan IT och verksamhet och den har därmed en viktig roll i att få denna att fungera. Denna studie tittar närmre på den specifika roll IT-styrning har i att åstadkomma IT/Verksamhetssamverkan. Genom en kvalitativ ansats, bestående av sex djupintervjuer, har 15 framgångsfaktorer och 15 utmaningar som existerar inom IT-styrning identifierats. Hur dessa faktorer påverkar IT-styrningens förmåga att bidra till samverkan mellan IT och verksamhet kommer i denna rapport att presenteras. Med hjälp av styrmodellen PDCA kommer faktorerna på ett tydligare och mer lättöverskådligt sätt att redogöras för. Genom framtaget resultat bidrar studien med värdefull kunskap om de framgångsfaktorer och utmaningar som existerar inom IT-styrning. Denna kunskap kan av verksamheter användas för att uppnå framgångsrik IT-styrning, något som i en förlängning också bidrar till tillfredsställande IT/Verksamhetssamverkan. / Todays businesses are experiencing a tougher market and for their long-term survival the need for their various parts to work as a whole is becoming increasingly important. Alignment is an essential piece of what constitutes a successful business. From a strategic perspective IT governance play a big part in this success. IT governance is one of several components necessary to achieve what is called IT/Business alignment and has therefore an important role to play in making this alignment work. This study takes a closer look at IT governance and its contribution to IT/Business alignment. Through a qualitative approach, consisting of six in-depth interviews, 15 success factors and 15 challenges existing within IT governance have been identified. How these factors affect IT governance and its ability to contribute to the alignment between IT and business will be presented in this paper. With the aid of the PDCA management model these factors will be presented and accounted for in a clearer and more accessible way. The results produced in this study will provide valuable knowledge about existing success factors and challenges within IT governence. This knowledge can be used by businesses to achieve successful IT governance, which in an extension also contributes to satisfactory IT/Business alignment.

Vztah Enterprise Architecture a strategického managementu / The relationship of Enterprise Architecture and strategic managementVašíček, Václav January 2009 (has links)
Enterprise Architecture is so far the highest development step in IT's architectural description of enterprises. At the beginning, just technological architecture existed. However, with the quickly growing complexity of IT other domains occurred, that had to be described. Information or application architectures can serve as examples. IT then realized, that it needed to add to its IT architectures a business view and consequently the discipline Enterprise Architecture came into being. Strategic management is crucial for the development of each enterprise. The thesis focuses on the strategic management of business and the strategic management of IT. The strategic management of business consists of a business strategy and an operating model. To the strategic management of IT then belongs an information strategy and IT governance. Business-IT alignment further explores and ensures the accord between the strategic management of business and the strategic management of IT. The aim of the thesis is to describe the relationship of Enterprise Architecture and the different forms of strategic management and to express to which rate Enterprise Architecture supports them. The explored relationships are: - The relationship of Enterprise Architecture and business strategy - The relationship of Enterprise Architecture and operating models - The relationship of Enterprise Architecture and information strategy - The relationship of Enterprise Architecture and IT governance - The relationship of Enterprise Architecture and business-IT alignment The goals of the thesis are reached via theoretical research and subsequent deduction. The author's personal asset consists of creating a hierarchical model of Enterprise Architecture, of defining Enterprise Architecture's reaction to business strategies, of modifying the methodology MMDIS in respect of information strategy, of depicting, how Enterprise Architecture can be used in IT governance, of illustrating, where Enterprise Architecture contributes to business-IT alignment and of assessing, to which rate Enterprise Architecture supports the different forms of strategic management.

Towards a framework to ensure alignment among information security professionals, ICT security auditors and regulatory officials in implementing information security in South AfricaBasani, Mandla 02 1900 (has links)
Information security in the form of IT governance is part of corporate governance. Corporate
governance requires that structures and processes are in place with appropriate checks and
balances to enable directors to discharge their responsibilities. Accordingly, information
security must be treated in the same way as all the other components of corporate
governance. This includes making information security a core part of executive and board
responsibilities.
Critically, corporate governance requires proper checks and balances to be established in an
organisation; consequently, these must be in place for all information security
implementations. In order to achieve this, it is important to have the involvement of three
key role players, namely information security professionals, ICT security auditors and
regulatory officials (from now on these will be referred to collectively as the ‘role players’).
These three role players must ensure that any information security controls implemented
are properly checked and evaluated against the organisation’s strategic objectives and
regulatory requirements.
While maintaining their individual independence, the three role players must work together
to achieve their individual goals with a view to, as a collective, contributing positively to the
overall information security of an organisation. Working together requires that each role
player must clearly understand its individual role, as well the role of the other players at
different points in an information security programme. In a nutshell, the role players must
be aligned such that their involvement will deliver maximum value to the organisation. This
alignment must be based on a common framework which is understood and accepted by all
three role players.
This study proposes a South African Information Security Alignment (SAISA) framework to
ensure the alignment of the role players in the implementation and evaluation of
information security controls. The structure of the SAISA framework is based on that of the
COBIT 4.1 (Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology). Hence, the SAISA framework comprises four domains, namely, Plan and Organise Information Security (PO-IS),
Acquire and Implement Information Security (AI-IS), Deliver and Support Information
Security (DS-IS) and Monitor and Evaluate Information Security (ME-IS).
The SAISA framework brings together the three role players with a view to assisting them to
understand their respective roles, as well as those of the other role players, as they
implement and evaluate information security controls. The framework is intended to
improve cooperation among the role players by ensuring that they view each other as
partners in this process. Through the life cycle structure it adopts, the SAISA framework
provides an effective and efficient tool for rolling out an information security programme in
an organisation / Computer Science / M. Sc. (Computer Science)

Förvaltningsledarensroll i digital transformation / The role as business solution manager in digital transformationWistrand, Julia, Rahme, Tove January 2019 (has links)
På grund av digitala teknologins framväxt står organisationer inför utmaningar där de behövergenomgå digitala transformationer för att möta omgivningens nya krav och behov. För attlyckas i den digitala transformationen behöver organisationer arbeta aktivt med att styraorganisationens digitala resurser och se till att IT och verksamhet samverkar. Rollen somförvaltningsledare återfinns inom ramverket pm³, vilket är en förvaltningsstyrningsmodell somappliceras för att på ett strukturerat sätt kunna prioritera mellan förvaltningens uppdrag, skapaen samverkan mellan IT och verksamhet samt ge en helhetsbild över de digitala resurser somfinns inom organisationen. Syftet med studien är att undersöka och skapa förståelse för rollensom förvaltningsledare i praktiken i en kontext som karaktäriseras av förändring, digitaltransformation samt IT-styrning. Vilket görs genom att studera förvaltningsledarrollen i enmyndighet i Sverige vilken genomgår en digital transformation. Den empiri som studiengrundar sig i är interna dokument, observationer och intervjuer för att ge en rättvis bild av denkontext som studerats. Studiens resultat visar att förvaltningsledarna har en central roll inomden digitala transformationen eftersom de både leder och driver den framåt. De förutsättningarsom har visat sig nödvändiga för att förvaltningsledare ska vara framgångsrika i sin roll ärbland annat: att de har förtroende och stöd; att de har en gemensam vision; att de har deninformation som behövs för att kunna utföra sitt arbete; att samarbetet inom förvaltningen samtäven mellan förvaltningen och övriga delar av organisationen fungerar; att de har förståelse förderas roll som ledande i den digitala transformationen; att de har en organisationsstruktur ochorganisationskultur som främjar arbetet med förvaltning och den digitala transformationen.

Assessing Information Technology and Business Alignment in Local City GovernmentD'Anjou, Leslie Milbourne 01 January 2016 (has links)
Top executives are interested in more transparent and formalized structures, applicable measurements, and clear justification of alignment. Limited or improper information technology governance (ITG) affects the business strategy that will ultimately influence the overall business alignment in local city government agencies (LCGAs). The problem addressed in this study was the lack of information regarding LCGAs IT/business strategic alignment maturity model (SAMM) level and the LCGAs' employment size. The purpose of this survey study was to evaluate 48 LCGA participants in the Southwestern part of the United States and compare their alignment perceptions with their cities' employment size. The theoretical framework for this study was based on ITG and business strategy as measured by the SAMM instrument. An online survey was used for data collection and data results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and an Analysis of Variance. After using the SAMM instrument, the current snapshot maturity level of LCGAs was 2.49 out of a maximum 5.0 level. Results illustrated no significant relationship between LCGAs alignment maturity levels and a city's size. This study empowers positive social change by providing LCGAs 6 incremental steps to improve the overall alignment maturity level in areas of transparent and formalized structures, applicable measurements, and improved alignment measures.

Exploring Critical Success Factors for Managing Complex Information Technology Projects in Federal AgenciesBoyles, Kyle Dean 01 January 2015 (has links)
The problem addressed in this study was the lack of understanding about failures of government leadership in accomplishing complex information technology (IT) projects and the ways such failures can negatively affect organizational performance. The purpose was to query subject matter experts and leaders with the intent to identify methods to reduce complex IT project failure rates in government organizations. This qualitative study drew on the technology acceptance model and the capability maturity model integration framework to evaluate organizations' abilities to manage complex IT projects. The research questions focused on exploring senior managers' experiences, the tacit knowledge of project management methodologies, and IT governance frameworks. The Delphi method was suitable for collecting and analyzing opinions of subject matter experts to help reach group consensus. Qualitative data analysis was used to identify themes, categories, and subcategories for thematic analysis. The result of the study was the identification of critical success factors and leadership attributes to increase the success rate of complex IT projects in federal agencies. This research may be beneficial to federal government program leaders who, as the result of increased insights and knowledge, can more effectively provide online government services using technology-enabled end-users' computing devices in a cost-effective and secure method.

MAINTAINING MAINTENANCE : The Importance of Evaluation and Upkeep in Maintenance Management ModelsBerglin, Sebastian, Wennberg, Albin January 2022 (has links)
This thesis explores the consequences of neglect and lack of proper support and implementation in maintenance management models, specifically an old implementation of the Pm3 model. The area of study is not widely explored, with studies and evaluation of the specific model we have looked at being almost non-existent. We have conducted a qualitative case study at an IT department/company at a Swedish university and the data has been collected through interviews with different IT department leaders, as well as one interview with a representative with the company that owns and distributes the Pm3 model. The current software development methodology at the IT company studied in this thesis are agile methods but is locked down to a micro level, while the Pm3 model handles the macro level. The consequences of this are then compared against research within fields such as IT governance and IT/business alignment to find discrepancies from which the phenomena’s can be explained. With this thesis we want to explore the consequences of not maintaining maintenance management models in organizations, especially the Pm3 model as this is widely in Swedish institutions such as universities and government authorities. This thesis provides a word of caution and argue for the importance of maintenance in maintenance management models for such organizations.
