IT Policy Assessment Tool

Author(s): Jennifer Perrier

Performing a needs assessment is the first step in tackling the overhaul of an existing policy portfolio, or even the development of a new single policy. This IT Policy Assessment Tool will allow you to:

  • Create a centralized IT policy inventory.
  • Review individual IT policies against quality criteria.
  • Assess the gap between the current and target state of the policy portfolio.
  • Evaluate and prioritize the work effort required to fill the gap.
  • Measure the impact that policy changes will have on the enterprise.

Systematically identify gaps in the policy portfolio and develop a shortlist of important policies that need to be amended or created from scratch.
