Clarify responsibilities, align priorities, and develop a roadmap for IT management.
The Mission at a Glance
The Company
An organization transforming its IT department
The Context of the Project
An IT department sought to strengthen its management systems and better align its projects with strategic objectives. The diversity of stakeholders and priorities made it difficult to reach consistent decisions. The project aimed to establish a shared framework with management.
The Challenge
Divergent IT priorities and a need to strengthen the governance framework in collaboration with management.
Our Approach
The Process, Step by Step
Clarifying the Role of IT Governance
PALMER worked on the strategic vision, missions, and scope of IT governance.
This phase helped define what the function was responsible for and how it contributed to the IT department’s objectives. It served as the starting point for the model to be developed.
Co-developing the Organization and Governance
The target operational model was developed in collaboration with stakeholders.
It was designed to establish a framework that would both empower stakeholders and encourage critical review of decisions. Management’s needs were incorporated into the process to foster their engagement with the new operating model.
Translating the Vision into Priority Initiatives
The roadmap translated the target model into actions and priorities.
Metrics were established to track the transformation. This breakdown aimed to clarify the implementation steps and maintain the link between strategic objectives and the work undertaken.
Supporting Implementation
PALMER monitored the rollout of governance processes and the evolution of management practices.
A shared dashboard supported the monitoring of actions. Feedback from management and observed results were used to adjust the framework as the transformation progressed.
