Information products and services as a added value to the core business

Reference models  Modelling in the area of the enterprise management  Reasons for the reference models development and principles of their application  Application of the reference models principles into the area of IS/ICT management

IS/ICT management reference models  Purpose: Support for service oriented IS/ICT management implementation Structured (formalised) overview of the enterprise informatics structure and base for its planning and management Support for the operational IS/ICT management tasks Support for the long-term IS/ICT management tasks

IS/ICT management reference models  Differences from: IS/ICT operations management tools (e.g. metasystem) IS/ICT management methodologies (ITIL, COBIT, etc.)

IS/ICT management models – application examples  Model structure Cost of application upgrade (impact analysis) SLA calculation  Model content Process catalogue Document examples Component characteristics

IS/ICT management models – service oriented approach

Cobit Framework  In order to provide the information that the organisation needs to achieve its objectives, IT resources need to be managed by a set of naturally grouped processes.

Cobit Framework  COBIT 3rd Edition is the most recent version of Control Objectives for Information and related Technology, first released by the Information Systems Audit and Control Foundation (ISACF) in The 2nd edition, reflecting an increase in the number of source documents, a revision in the high-level and detailed control objectives and the addition of the Implementation Tool Set, was published in The 3rd edition marks the entry of a new primary publisher for COBIT: the IT Governance Institute.

KIT reference model implementation – lessons learned  Positive IS/ICT management is motivated i a way – „We are building our IS/ICT management system“ Easy to use tool Structured approach – no plain text – better integrity Knowledge moved from heads to shared resource  Other KIT model is no COTS It cannot be implemented without coaching Still need a customization IS/ICT managers are different – therefore each implementation is different
