Summary: | The research was aimed at finding the challenges to the implementation of IT governance in Zimbabwean
parastatals. It assessed existing IT governance processes and frameworks in Zimbabwean parastatals. The
participants of this study were managers, directors and the staff from five different Zimbabwe parastatals. Tools for data collection included questionnaires targeted at the staff from the different parastatals, interviews with managers and directors from five different Zimbabwean parastatals as well as document review. The research revealed that there were no clear IT governance strategies or written IT policy statements or frameworks being used to implement IT governance in Zimbabwean parastatals. The research also established that corporate governance which is the overall body covering IT governance is still at the developing stage in Zimbabwean parastatals. The research recommended the implementation of a documented IT policy statement and use such known frameworks such as COBIT and ITIL. |
