"
We
wanted to make sure our spending on Information Technology was
actually creating a difference in and aligned with the corporate
direction. Teeger Schiller Inc. worked with us to create an IT
governance system that has allowed us to effectively manage our
large investment in technology across a diverse organization. After
less than 6 months, our Governance Group is working effectively, and
we see the difference. We are very pleased with the results."
Gerry Murray, Atlantic Group,
Director of Mills
"IT
governance is part of corporate governance and has to provide the
organizational structure to enable the creation of business value
through IT, the assurance that there are no IT investments in bad
projects and that there are adequate IT control mechanisms."
Win Van Grembergen, Information
Systems Control, vol. 2, 2000
"Thank you for the presentation you did for the Richmond Hill
Chamber of Commerce Board. As always your knowledge of governance is great. You obviously know the facts and also how
this model is to be applied. I know that you were instrumental when
this model of governance was initiated at our Chamber and it was
great for our new Board Members and also the longer term members to
have a lesson on Policy GovernanceŽ. I know that the change to
Policy GovernanceŽ has served our Chamber very well. Our Board
spends so little time on the stuff that tends to paralyze other
Boards and we now work in an efficient manner with each other but most
importantly with our CEO."
David West, Chair Richmond
Hill Chamber of Commerce
"IT
governance is an integral part of corporate governance in raising
the bar of corporate integrity and enhancing shareholder value. IT
governance goes beyond IT audit and beyond what the CIO can
accomplish by himself/herself. Depending on the organization, IT
governance may be the enabler for an organization to move to the
next level or it may be the only way an organization can meet
regulatory and legal requirements."

Austin Hutton, Principles of IT Governance
