IT Governance
GlidePath designs its solutions in accordance with IT governance.
IT is essential to manage transactions, information and knowledge necessary to initiate and sustain economic activities. In many organizations, IT is fundamental to support, sustain and grow the business.
While many organizations recognize the potential benefits that technology can yield, the successful ones also understand and manage the risks associated with implementing new technologies. Among the enterprise's challenges and concerns are:
- Aligning IT strategy with the business strategy
- Cascading strategy and goals down into the enterprise
- Providing organizational structures that facilitate the implementation of strategy and goals
- Insisting that an IT control framework be adopted and implemented
- Measuring IT's performance
Effective and timely measures aimed at addressing these top management concerns need to be promoted by the governance layer of an enterprise. Hence, boards and executive management need to extend governance, already exercised over the enterprise, to IT.
Simply put, IT governance is the responsibility of the board of directors and executive management. It is an integral part of enterprise governance and consists of the leadership and organizational structures and processes that ensure that the organization's IT sustains and extends the organization's strategies and objectives.
Business Continuity Monitoring
More and more, companies depend heavily on their IT as a productivity tool for their business. IT has become intermingled with business processes. Therefore, an interruption of these IT processes can have direct effects on an company's productivity and, even, stability.
GlidePath has adapted a methodology that can help customers to gain more insight in their business processes by linking these processes to IT processes.
A management tool
Business Continuity Monitoring can help companies to streamline and control their business processes, and to add transparency to the company. This leads to enhanced predictability of the company's performance. Business Continuity Moniroring can be used as an extensive reporting tool for the management. It allows the customer to see which process/applications performs in what way, how many problems and incidents there are and are to be expected, and what their impact are on the company as a whole.
In short: Monitoring the appropriate IT processes within your company can give you enhanced insight in your business . Furthermore, it allows you to predict where problems might occur in the future, what hardware should be upgraded and what proceeses should be redefined.
