IT Governance and Service Management
- IT Strategy: The first component of IT management is the most important because it involves connecting your IT department with your business’s needs. Having an IT Strategy means, at its core, having a plan to deal with both good and bad scenarios as they relate to IT. For example, if your company expands and hires more employees, your IT department needs to figure out how to manage increased activity on your network. Or if your company is the target of a cyber attack, tech will need directives for recovering lost or compromised information. An effective IT strategy should do the following:
- Support business operations by considering your organization’s overall goals and making sure your IT department can support and further those goals. That also means considering the business aspects of your IT department such as creating a workable budget and communicating with leaders in other departments to get a holistic view of your organization’s needs.
- Secure your company’s and your customers’ information by developing a plan to protect it and staying up to date on the latest security strategies.
- Provide value to the company by delivering reliable IT service and creating a framework for the IT department’s own plans for improvement as your organization grows and develops.
- IT Service: Providing value through quality IT service isn’t as simple as promising that your tech team will do a good job. It means creating service goals and standards and doing everything you can to make sure your team lives up to them. Delivering top-notch IT service involves a two-pronged view of the people consuming those services:
- Customers need to know their data won’t be compromised by faulty security systems. But on a more day-to-day level, they need access to your company’s website. Clients visiting your office might need access to your internet connection. And they need a system where they can report any tech-related issues they might encounter.
- Employees need reliable access to an internet connection and internal data. Connections need to be secure, and your employees—especially those outside of the IT department—need to be educated about responsible network access. When something goes wrong, they also need a place to report tech issues so they’re fixed ASAP.
- IT Assets: Finally, you need to manage all of the assets employees use to get their work done. That means managing not only who gets which laptop but also when and how your systems are updated. IT assets include:
- Hardware. This is what you typically think of when discussing assets. Managing hardware includes keeping track of who uses which assets, tracking wear and tear, and ordering new equipment if and when you need it.
- Software. Don’t forget that software is also an IT asset. Who uses which systems? When do your licenses expire? Do you need to connect one or more solutions? Is your tech team responsible for fixing a buggy proprietary system? You should be able to answer all of these questions if you’re properly managing your assets.
