A The assessment of public administration IT governance from the perspective of corporate governance principles

Abstract

This study aimed to verify the assessment of IT governance that is carried out in public administration companies, from the perspective of transparency, equity, accountability and corporate responsibility. Since IT governance is part of corporate governance, we sought to obtain a measure common to both. The study identifies the items that make up the official IT governance indicator (iGovTI) and its relationship with the four principles of corporate governance defined by the Brazilian Institute of Corporate Governance. The data used are the verification items that made up the 2018 iGG, relating exclusively to IT governance. For the analysis, the references informed by the TCU were used for each item of verification of the survey. It was possible to elaborate a mapping of the governance assessment items that generate iGovTI by corporate governance principles. Due to the limited scope of its verification items, in relation to the principles of corporate governance or due to the little connection with the practices established in established models of good practices, the table with the association of the principles of corporate governance obtained shows that little is evaluated. technology governance from the perspective of the corporate governance principles defined by the IBGC.
