6 IT Cortex Conclusions An IT project is more likely to be unsuccessful than successful 1 in 5 likely will bring full satisfaction The larger or more complex the project, the more likely the failure Unit 2-29 What Is Wrong with IT? IT efforts fail to generate the intended business benefits There must be something wrong with the IT function in our company. We have found, however, that the problem reveals that something is wrong with the way non-it executives are managing IT-enabled change in the organization. HBR: IT Governance Unit 2-30 IT Governance A formal structure and a systematic methodology for managing technology, technologists, and technological change within an organization, including: Unit 2-31 Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide 2-6

8 NCSC Court IT Governance Model Governance principles Structure and process Unit 2-43 Principle #1 Decisions should be made at the appropriate level of an organization Policy decisions by policy leaders Business decisions by business experts Legal decisions by those with legal training Technology decisions by technologists Financial decisions by financial people Unit 2-44 The Real World Policy leaders disengage when meeting agendas are filled with trivial technical and business issues Technical initiatives flounder when policy decisions cannot be made Technical staff can t get or won t ask for help in understanding business operations Unit 2-45 Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide 2-8
9 The Real World Policy and business leaders make technology decisions without consulting technologists or just follow the money Legal issues paralyze progress on technology design Technology design fails to consider legal issues Unit 2-46 Principle #2 Almost every major technology decision has policy, business, and technical facets, so a team approach to decision-making is required Unit 2-47 Principle #3 Every decision should consider the interests of every group that may be affected Unit 2-48 Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide 2-9
10 Principle #4 The structure, authority, responsibility, expectations, and operating rules of a governing group should be formally articulated and communicated throughout the organization Unit 2-49 NCSC Court IT Governance Model Three-tiered governance structure Policy Business Technology Overlap Charter Role of the Chief Information Officer (CIO) or Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Unit 2-50 Three-Tiered Governance Model Policy Group Composed of court policy leaders Provides vision and strategic direction Sets priorities Says NO! Overall budget allocations Financial oversight Strategic planning Project oversight Unit 2-51 Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide 2-10
11 Business Perspective Some of the most ineffective governance we have observed was the result of conflicting goals. This problem was often observed in the government sector, where directives come from many agencies. The result was confusion, complexity, and mixed messages, so the governance was ignored. HBR: IT Governance Unit 2-52 Business Perspective (cont.) The unmanageable number of goals typically arose from not making strategic business choices and had nothing to do with IT. We observed that good managers trying diligently to meet all these goals became frustrated and ineffective. HBR: IT Governance Unit 2-53 Three-Tiered Governance Model Business Group Composed of business experts Defines and analyzes business problems Manages business processes Implements policy directives Manages projects Assists in design of solutions Develops plans, budgets, issues papers, etc. Focuses on solving business problems Unit 2-54 Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide 2-11

19 EXERCISE 2B Case Study Justiceburg Municipal Court The Justiceburg Municipal Court is a court of limited jurisdiction, with responsibility for parking, traffic, state class C misdemeanors, and municipal ordinances. The court consists of 22 judges, 12 of whom are part-time, and three of whom are magistrates. The court has 214 staff divided into three divisions, court administration, adjudication, and court services. Last year, 381,447 traffic cases were filed, of which 102,715 were parking. A total of 23,614 criminal cases were filed, along with 16,690 municipal ordinance matters. The court operates on a homegrown, mainframe-based case management system that was developed in the late 1980s, and which is obsolete and must be replaced. Staff must enter a significant amount of data into the system, and then support redundant calendaring and document generation business processes. The current system has links to the city police, city prosecutor, and city financial department. The assistant court administrator saw a new system at the last NACM conference and thinks that it would be a perfect fit for the court. The new presiding judge has directed the court administrator to replace the case management system before the end of the year, despite the fact that no funding is available at this time. He believes that city council would make several hundred thousand dollars available, if he asked. He would like the new system to include digital documents and electronic filing. He also would like to eliminate the analog cassette recorders in the courtroom and install new digital audio systems, which also should be integrated with the case management system. Funding for the new recording system was included in this year s budget. The state court administrator would like the court to report standard statistical information electronically, but the court does not organize its work consistently with the state format. Drug court staff also would like electronic linkages with treatment providers. At present, the drug court uses a generic Microsoft Access system, acquired at no charge and modified with grant funds. Only one of the six current treatment providers is automated. The county is pursuing an integrated justice initiative and would like the court to participate. The court s Chief Technology Officer retired last month, and the court is currently recruiting a replacement. One of the magistrates is lobbying the judges to hire his brother, who has been doing IT in health care for more than twenty years. The city IT director did not talk to the retired court CTO for more than two years because they had a falling out over the court s decision to use WordPerfect, instead of Microsoft Word, which is used by the rest of city organizations. Managing Technology Projects and Technology Resources Participant Guide R2-1
20 Many IT services are provided by the City of Justiceburg. They have three programmers allocated to support the court case management system, but these individuals often are pulled away when a crisis arises in another department. The waiting list for system modifications has over two hundred items, and is not well managed. It typically takes two to two and a half years for an item on the list to be addressed. Often staff finds that a change is made that they no longer need, and no one is sure what items are on the list, since any court staff member can a request to any programmer. The court has four IT positions (in addition to the CTO) to support desktop computers, the court web site, the internal network, and domain, , file, and print servers. A team of three judges is planning to attend the next national court technology conference. In the past, the presiding judge has expressed concern about involving external organizations in court business in any way, citing the independence of the judiciary. He believes that the court has inherent authority to order executive branch agencies to provide information in any format desired by the court. The presiding judge recognizes that the situation in the court is a mess. He has proposed establishing a technology committee composed of four judges. The court administrator requested the opportunity to prepare an alternative proposal, and has pulled your group together to prepare a charter for a new governance organization that will address as many of the problems that the court is facing as possible. Please prepare an outline for this charter that defines the structure, membership, mission, authority, and rules of operation for your proposed new governance group.
