IT Value Management

IT-CMF

Manage IT for Business Value

Managing for IT Business Value involves tying IT investments to overall business benefits.  The IT-CMF outlines the core business practices and tools required to optimise your IT organisation's business value.  These practices and tools include Total Cost of Ownership (or TCO), Return on Investment (or ROI), the Business Value Index (or BVI) and portfolio management.  The Managing for IT Business Value strategy provides a structure for an IT organisation to move from managing IT as a technology project to regarding IT as a portfolio of investments that generate value for the entire business.
