Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 145

In a large enterprise, which of the following should be responsible for the implementation of an IT balanced scorecard?

Answer options

• A. IT steering committee
• B. Chief risk officer
• C. Project management office
• D. Chief information officer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) is typically responsible for the overall IT strategy and governance, making them the most suitable choice for implementing an IT balanced scorecard. The IT steering committee may provide guidance, but they do not directly implement strategies. The Chief Risk Officer focuses on risk management rather than IT performance metrics, and the Project Management Office primarily handles project execution rather than strategic scorecard initiatives.
