Main tasks for the IT Boards are: • Ensure alignment between business and IT strategy; • Monitor & manage progress (delivery/Finance) of IT delivery in line with Plans; • Track business case realisation and guard scope of projects • Define IT AOP for upcoming year(s); • Ensure correct prioritization of projects within Portfolio; • Arrange funding for the projects within the IT Program DAP IT Governance Structure • Jan van Leeuwen • Jan van Loon Finance IT Board R&D and Supply IT Board Marketing IT Board Supply Chain IT Board Sales IT Board Sales Board Growth: Sales Board WE & NA: Sales Board ISG: Note: X-domain topics/issues will be managed via Jan van Loon and Jan van Leeuwen
WoW and role of IT Boards/DAP IS Program mgt. Overall Characterises of the DAP IS Governance Model: • The IT Board consists of Business representatives and the DAP IS Program manager. Chair of the Board is always a DAP responsible business manager, who is also the owner of the IT Roadmap for respective functional area • The IT Board covers all IT related projects/issues within the functional area of the respective IT Board. A project or initiatives is always linked to one of the IT Boards • Projects are in principle always initiated/created by the individual businesses (e.g. Functions/BU’s) with a focus on business improvement. In this process DAP IS will support the business by: • Providing business knowledge/expertise on process improvement through IT enablement • Creating business cases for process improvement projects • Translating business improvements into concrete IT enabled solutions/improvement projects • Managing the overall program of IT enabled business improvements for DAP • Managing the process of the actual delivery/implementation of the defined improvements • All demand for IT enabled solutions within DAP will be incorporated in the DAP IS Program-Plan. Projects will however only start after formal approval of the IT Board (on scope/timing/budget and funding).
WoW and role of IT Boards/DAP IS Program mgt.Role Descriptions • Role of the IT Board Chairman • Ensure alignment between Business Strategy and IT strategy • Support the controlled/managed process for business improvement via IT enabled • Guard the financial process (AOP/Budget/Funding/Savings/Business Cases) • Set priorities in the Project portfolio to ensure IT is aligned with Business Focus • Arrange funding for projects & initiatives within scope of the respective IT Board • Role of the DAP IS Program Manager • Ensure alignment between Business Strategy and IT strategy • Facilitate the IT Board (and ensure alignment with other Boards/initiatives if required) • Ensure a controlled/managed process for process-improvement with respect to: • Identification of improvement potential & IT enabled solution design • Actual delivery and progress management for delivery of IT enabled solutions • Financials (AOP/Budget/Funding/Spend/Savings/Business Cases) • Manage delivery of the Program in line with plans (Time/Budget/Scope & defined priorities) • Role of JvL and JvL in the IT Governance Model • Monitor the overall status and progress of the DAS IS Program • Review project requests and decide on project approval (within and on-top-off AOP) • Set priorities in case of dependencies cross IT Boards

AOP process • One of the key roles of the IT Board (& Program mgt.) is to translate the Business Strategy into clearly defined improvement projects, to be included in the AOP. • High level view of AOP process for IT Project Portfolio: • Program mgt. will create a first draft Program-Plan & AOP based on the plans available and the understanding of business strategy, improvement opportunities and needs. (Note: all projects/initiatives are linked to the respective IT Board) • The draft Program-Plan & AOP is presented/reviewed in the respective IT Board • The IT Board finalizes the draft plans (Scope, Timing and Funding of the projects) • Updated Program-Plan & AOP are submitted/presented to DAP Management for approval • After review/finalization of the Program-Plan & AOP, IT Boards are informed about the final AOP and Program-plan by the Program manager • It is the responsibility of the Program mgr. & IT board to ensure delivery within AOP1 Note 1: AOP = AOP + agreed on-top-off budgets as mentioned on next slide (situation 2)
Process for managing portfolio and on-top-off AOP initiatives During the year IT Boards monitor & manage the actual execution of the Program Plan. In this process IT Boards can be faced with 2 kinds of deviations: • Projects within the IT Program (of the respective IT Board) deviate from the plans as included in the AOP. Deviations can be in scope (incl. # of projects), timing and or budget for projects. In case these deviations can still be covered within the original AOP amount, the IT Board has the authority to re-prioritize and re-allocate budgets. • Projects deviate from the plans as included in the AOP (like situation 1) but can not be covered via the AOP budget of the respective IT Board. This can be the result of new projects which were not foreseen but should be executed (e.g. ESPRIT/Re-structuring of DAP/BIF-RPO). In these cases the IT Board needs to arrange funding (either via direct business case or via re-allocating/adding budgets). These changes will always have to pass JvL/JvL for approval before start of the project.Note: After approval of an on-top-off AOP project/budget by JvL/JvL, the project will be included in the overall Program Plan. Program mgr. & IT board will thereafter be responsible for delivery of the project within approved budget.
Status monitoring and tracking progress on delivery/financials In the IT Board status & progress are regularly monitored for both solution delivery and financials (Budget/Spend). Structure is identical for all IT Boards and includes AOP/Approved Budget/Actuals and ETC to ensure completeness of annual overview. Deviations from plan (delivery/financials) are to be managed within the IT board. In case of escalation JvL/JvL are to be involved.
