ISO/IEC38500 is the international standard for the corporate
governance of information and communication technology. The purpose
of the standard is to create a framework to ensure that the Board
is appropriately involved in the governance of the organisation's
IT. The standard sets out guiding principles for directors on how
to ensure the effective, efficient and acceptable use of IT within
their company. This useful pocket guide provides an account of the
scope and objectives of the standard. It outlines the standard's
six core principles, sets out the three major tasks that the
standard assigns to directors regarding IT, and explains the
interrelationship between the two. The guide also offers advice on
how to set up and implement the IT governance framework. Business
benefits of ISO/IEC 38500 (ISO38500) include: Manage the
organisation's investment in IT responsibly The pocket guide shows
how the standard can be used to ensure that your decision making
about IT investment remains clear and transparent, and that the
associated risks are clearly understood. Meet compliance
requirements ISO/IEC38500 requires directors to verify that their
IT systems are in compliance with all applicable regulations. As
this pocket guide explains, following the procedures set out in
ISO/IEC38500 will help company directors both to achieve and
demonstrate compliance. Improve the performance of the organisation
On average, investment in IT represents more than 50 per cent of
every organisation's annual capital investment. Both private and
public sector organisations need to maintain a high standard of
service while at the same time keeping costs low. The pocket guide
looks at how following the guidance contained in ISO/IEC38500 can
enable directors to retain a grip on costs and obtain better value
for money from IT equipment. Introduce effective project governance
This pocket guide describes how ISO/IEC38500 can help company
directors to identify problems in an IT project at an early stage.
In this way, the standard promotes effective management of the
risks associated with major IT projects, enables the board to keep
a grip on budgets and militates against project failure. Implement
ISO38500, the international standard for corporate governance of IT
An IT governance framework serves to close the gap between the
importance of IT and the understanding of IT. For this reason, you
can use an IT governance framework to improve your company's
competitive position.
