Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 316

Who is PRIMARILY accountable for delivering the benefits of an IT-enabled investment program to the enterprise?

Answer options

• A. Business sponsor
• B. IT steering committee chair
• C. CIO
• D. Program manager

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The Business sponsor is primarily accountable for realizing the benefits of an IT-enabled investment program since they champion the initiative and ensure alignment with business objectives. The IT steering committee chair, CIO, and Program manager play supportive roles, but they do not have the same level of direct accountability for the program's benefits as the Business sponsor.
