The ultimate purpose of IT governance is to:

A.
encourage optimal use of IT.

B.
reduce IT costs.

C.
decentralize IT resources across the organization.

D.
centralize control of IT.

Explanation:
IT governance is intended to specify the combination of decision rights and accountability that is best for the
enterprise. It is different for every enterprise. Reducing IT costs may not be the best IT governance outcome for
an enterprise. Decentralizing IT resources across the organization is not always desired, although it may be
desired in a decentralized environment. Centralizing control of IT is not always desired. An example of where it
might be desired is an enterprise desiring a single point of customer contact.
