COBIT 2019: Assess, Guide and Monitor (EDM)

Parent Process Reference Framework (PRF): COBIT 2019

Assess direct domain and monitor consists of the following 5 processes:

EDM01: Configuration and maintenance of the assured governance framework

Provide a consistent approach that is integrated and aligned with the corporate governance. Decisions related to IT are made according to the company's strategies and objectives and the desired value is realized. To this end, ensure that IT-related processes are overseen effectively and transparently; compliance with legal, contractual and regulatory requirements is confirmed; and governance requirements for board members are met.

EDM02: Delivery of assured benefits

Optimize business value from investments in business processes, IT services and IT assets.

Ensuring optimal value from IT-enabled initiatives, services and assets; cost-effective delivery of solutions and services; and a reliable and accurate picture of the costs and likely benefits so that business needs are supported effectively and efficiently.

EDM03: Guaranteed Risk Optimization

Ensuring that the enterprise's risk appetite and tolerance are understood, articulated and communicated, and that business value risk related to the use of IT is identified and managed.

Ensure that IT-related enterprise risk does not exceed risk appetite and risk tolerance, the impact of IT risk to business value is identified and managed, and the potential for compliance failures is minimized.

EDM04: Resource optimization guaranteed

Ensuring that adequate and sufficient IT-related resources (people, processes and technology) are available to support corporate objectives effectively at an optimal cost.

Ensure that the company's resource needs are optimally met, IT costs are optimized, and there is a greater likelihood of benefit realization and readiness for future changes.

EDM05: Ensure stakeholder engagement

Ensuring that stakeholders are identified and engaged in the I&T governance system and that the company's performance, measurement and compliance reporting is transparent, with stakeholders approving targets and metrics and necessary corrective actions.

Ensure that stakeholders support the IT strategy and roadmap, communication with stakeholders is effective and timely, and the basis for reporting is established to increase performance. Identify areas for improvement and confirm that IT-related objectives and strategies are in line with the company's strategy.
