Technology Governance

Organisational risk is increased through compliance obligations, dependencies on changing technology and partner risks such as outsourcing. Unmanaged, these dependencies can expose the organisation to:

• damage to reputation
• reduced service levels
• increased customer churn rates
• civil litigation
• criminal prosecution of accountable staff
• reduced systems availability

PreterLex's technology governance approach identifies the key areas of compliance, policy management, organisation and disclosure that protect the client's technology and digital assets. We achieve this through:

• strategic review of existing governance processes
• identifying and assessing the organisation's technology risk profile
• alignment with audit and risk management requirements
• identifying industry standards and aligning the organisation's technology governance requirements with them
• integrating approved product, services and technology sets with other areas of the business such as finance, procurement and training
• mapping internal standards and policies to external industry frameworks
• processes to ensure continuing compliance with the relevant regulations, standards and architectures
• continuous assessment of change
