CMS/BCCS IT Governance

 

Links

Governance, as a process, develops the IT component of business initiatives into projects. This is a building process that starts with the Project Charter, followed by the Business and Technical Requirements plus RFP/IFB specifications, if applicable.

Project Charter

The Project Charter is the business case. Why does the Agency need to undertake this project? What are the benefits? What are the anticipated costs? This is some of the information that the Project Charter is designed to capture.

Business Requirements

The Business Requirements are the functions that the system needs to deliver to the users. These could also be thought of as the specifications that would be included in an RFP.

Technical Requirements

The Technical Requirements typically portray the behavior of the application solution. The greater the number of users or the faster something has to perform translates into the quantities and type of hardware that will be needed to meet the solution.
