Val IT - Overview

Overview

Val IT allows business managers to get business value from IT investments, by providing a governance framework that consists of

  • a set of guiding principles, and
  • a number of processes conforming to those principles that are further defined as a set of key management practices.

The major domains are:

  • Value Governance (VG prefix)
  • Portfolio Management (PM prefix)
  • Investment Management (IM prefix)

Currently (as of 2006) a relatively short body of work, it will evolve and expand over time, with documents available for download via the Val IT Page at ISACA, and include:

  • the framework itself;
  • a template/guide to using Val IT when developing a business case;
  • a case study; and
  • FAQ
