A “strong IT governance structure” does not imply that upper management hovers over its project managers,
watching their every move. Rather, it means that each IT investment must go through a rigorous review process
before it receives funding.
The Lever Group Approach
The Lever Group addresses your agency’s IT governance process by tying it closely to the CPIC process and cycle.
The CPIC process is an excellent tool to create a strong governance process. CPIC is mandated by OMB, and many agencies
already have the reporting structure in place. The CPIC cycle requires that each investment meet certain requirements
before moving on to the next phase. These requirements can be used to develop strong governing procedures.
The CPIC quarterly reporting cycle also provides the necessary information to make continued funding decisions.
The Lever Group adapts your agency’s required reporting structure to make the CPIC cycle and governance processes
less arduous but more thorough.
By making governance based on performance instead of personality, The Lever Group maximizes your IT systems’ contribution
to your mission.
