We need to organize and govern Corporate IT to ensure business processes are supported effectively by tooling and users can work efficiently.

Corp IT is steered through representation of stakeholders, via the Corporate IT Delegate role, that can be temporarily taken as needed.

Key Responsibilities

  • Ensure Governance, Prioritization and high level Coordination of projects and work

  • Drive requirements engineering, tooling evaluation and decision-making

  • Maintain an overview of all IT services including costs for Budget

  • Own and drive implementation of the higher level Corporate IT strategy

Stakeholders and Key Deliverables

Business Process Owners (according to list of IT services)

Proper tooling that addresses their needs

All VSHNeers
  • Working general IT tooling and infrastructure that enables and supports them to work efficiently

  • Usage support for our IT tooling and infrastructure

Finance
  • Budget numbers for overall VSHN budget

  • Cost-saving measures for unnecessary IT tools or resources.

CISO and ISM Governance
  • Awareness & collaboration on security aspects and implementation of controls within the requirements and constraints of our ISMS.

Dependencies

VSHN (Anchor Circle)
  • Budget for Corporate IT

  • High Level strategy/direction for Corp IT strategy

Constraints

  • Projects/bigger tooling changes need a clear why, scope, timeline and budget

  • Decision-making for tooling is based on company-level strategy, understood organizational/business needs/problems, not on personal preferences or beliefs.

  • Governance happens in this circle, not in sub-circles/roles, involving business owners and stakeholders appropriately.
