Global IT Governance Development Consulting Service

As we become increasingly dependent on information technology (IT) in our business, appropriate development and management of IT governance takes on greater importance. Failing to see this could result in inconsistent operations conducted at each business location, leading to incoherent, haphazard IT strategy formulation. Even worse, any of these fragmented locations may face survival-threatening risks that could cause a f ailure of services and large-scale br eakdown, or even leak age of confidential information. ABeam Consulting utilizes its wealth of knowledge accumulated on a global level to assist its clients in developing IT governance for the implementation of their IT strategy.

Consulting firms take action aimed at meeting IT governance goals, and address individual threats with risk-mitigating control measures. But at ABeam Consulting, we provide value far beyond these conventional measures, developing workable systems by implementing headquarters-led governance on a global scale. We establish necessary organizational structure and implement the training of personnel who will actually run the organization. We also review and improve existing IT governance to keep it in tune with changes in internal and external environments, each of which vary over time.

We develop IT governance in three steps: ① survey of current status, ② policy definition and ③ development/operation.
Key points to consider are: To what extent should IT governance be implemented? How to develop & deploy IT governance and establish and recruit organization/personnel that fit into the reality of each office.

Our IT governance methodology established by r eferring to famous global standardized framework, enable us to flexibly serve our clients’ different objectives and resolve their challenges. Rather than merely applying standardized risk measures, we are able to select the methods that best suit to the risk status of each business/office of our clients. We provide our clients with total solutions from development and deployment to the operational improvement phases, ensuring that our projects never end in unattainable “pie in the sky” solutions.

We visualize the maturity levels of IT governance as they differ from office to office, using objective criteria to identify issues. In addition, we assess the residual risk of each item designed to develop effective IT governance so that we can assess and prioritize each of the issues targeted for resolution.

We discuss with our client to define the IT governance policy by referring to famous global standardized frameworks. The policy can cover all or partial IT operation process with clear definition of the scope, attainment level, and refinement level.

We provide our clients with total support from fleshing out risk countermeasures to establishment of operational methods and IT governance frameworks to the startup of actual organizations. In order to enable action toward continual improvement take root in our client’s organization, we provide support for the training and development of IT governance-related personnel.
