Chris, this post is music to my ears! You are one of the few experts out there who realizes the essential nature of the “other dimension” of the IT governance mechanisms Peter Weill and Jeanne Ross describe in their watershed book on IT governance. Most organizations jump all over the “role” aspect of IT governance mechanisms – assigning executive accountability and establishing governing committees. But almost all of these organizations fail to address the other dimension of IT governance mechanisms – processes. Thanks for another great post.

The core business processes must be in place for any IT development or investment. But the IT professionals are not doing their job unless they involve and participate in improving and developing the business processes. The IT professional responsibility thus should extend into a shared responsibility with main business development to establish and maintain business structures that IT should syncronize with optimally.
The earlier IT professionals with a “process mind” are involved in process work – the better IT Business support will be later on, and thus improved business value. IT Governance thus define the arenas, “procedures” and rules to follow directing these efforts – consistent with the business descion structure.

Thanks for your comment, Peter. Regarding the survey, it included 450 participants of a “Fortune 1000″ size, half business and half IT execs. So, while any survey isn’t perfect, the project delivery results can’t be totally attributed to misaligned business expectations.
