Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 84

Which of the following groups would be MOST appropriate to decide whether to proceed with an IT-enabled investment at the individual program level?

Answer options

• A. Business sponsors
• B. Program management office
• C. IT steering committee
• D. Board of directors

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The IT steering committee is specifically tasked with overseeing IT investments and ensuring they align with the organization's strategic goals, making it the most appropriate group for this decision. Business sponsors and the program management office may provide input, but they do not have the same level of authority and oversight as the IT steering committee. The board of directors typically handles broader organizational governance and may not focus on individual program decisions.
