Analytix COBIT® based IT Governance certification assessment service is designed to provide an assessment of your current IT Governance and IT management practices, utilising a range of information gathering techniques including interviews, facilitated workshops, observations and the study of relevant company records and documentation.
Certified Assessors
Our COBIT 5 certified assessors are highly competent IT and business professionals who have been trained in performing COBIT-based IT process assessments and have experience in planning, building, running and/or monitoring IT processes. Our assessors are able to provide reliable, consistent and repeatable assessments of IT process capabilities—which helps IT leaders gain C-level and board member buy-in for change and improvement initiatives.
Aim of the IT Governance Assessment
The aim of the IT Governance assessment is to provide management the means to make informed decisions on which IT areas to focus on, which areas to improve, to derive maximum value.
The assessment results provide a determination of IT process capability and can be used for:
- IT process improvement
- Delivering value to the business
- Measuring the achievement of current or projected IT business goals
- Benchmarking
- Reporting and
- Organisational compliance
We utilise a formal IT Governance certification assessment approach that has been proven and which is closely aligned with the COBIT® 5 IT Governance and Management framework’s guidelines and Process Capability assessment and implementation models for IT GRC.
A review of the existing IT related documentation is necessary in order to evaluate the capability of your IT processes. Based on the current IT strategy, objectives and risks, we assist you to identify and select the priority IT (COBIT® 5) processes that require initial focus and action. This will enable the IT organisation to show senior executives the “Quick Wins” and define an effective IT Governance implementation plan.
