The standard mechanism for governing IT change holds back organisations with bureaucratic processes that are incompatible with continuous delivery. Digital enterprises need to remove the waste, delay, and risk within their IT change management process.
Governance procedures are, however, essential. An enterprise's survival rests on its ability to identify and control operational risks. Digital enterprises must control the many operational risks related to IT change.
Continuous Governance avoids this, possibly fatal, conflict.
The conflict stems from slow bureaucratic mechanisms of assurance, not the underlying policy itself. Continuous Governance introduces codified policy and automated assurance to facilitate an efficient flow of delivery while appropriately managing the risk.
