| Illustration - Strategy to Execution |
As we have seen in my previous posts, I am always keen to tie IT Activities to Business Strategy. Whether it is in utilizing the CLAP Framework to map Business Activities to physical IT infrastructure, or in achieving your goals using the ERRC Canvas, the end-goal is always to drive Business Value.
In this basic diagram, the basic questions of Who, What, Why and How are directly addressed, leaving the When up to the Executive sponsors to decide in the Project Charter. The centrepiece is the ERRC Canvas, which helps define the Objectives (the What) & IT Activities that would meet the Goal. As with all SMART Goals, the element of Metrics help define the How.
Finally, the Plan is actually the domain of the Project Management Office. It would include the Project Charter and supporting artifacts, including dependency maps and budget estimates. Conventional Wisdom is that the Project Manager is responsible for Time, Resources and Budget.
