Ken’s presentation addresses what’s needed to relieve the extra pressure felt by government officials these days as they are challenged by the Obama Administration to improve delivery of government services, even as many are grappling with fewer available resources. The effective application of performance measures can demonstrate the cause-andeffect relationships between IT solutions – i.e., people, processes, and IT-products – and their respective contributions to the mission and business needs of government.
With the Obama Administrations' emphasis on transparency, participation and collaboration, how can solution architects best leverage the Web to enable open government?

There’s a divide between Leadership and Governance. First off, governance is more than just financial and legal complicance; it’s a compilation of functions, tools, machinery and expertise and a methodology that makes sense out of all those investments of people and equipment. Then, it also comprises an impulse that makes the orhanization tick, its conscience. Real transformation can ONLY take place by changing the impulse and knowing the processes that make-up the value-chain.

As we continue to find more powerful tools and approaches available to us in our efforts to employ Business Decision Management, one last roadblock remains on our quest for agility. Ourselves. We already know effective BDM will be facilitated by a new kind of resource – a hybrid business/technical person that knows the business well and is able to codify that knowledge in a structured fashion. But the organization itself must enable – not inhibit – the collaboration we seek.

After 3 decades of Total Quality Management, Process Reengineering, Lean, Six Sigma and now Business Process Management, it is mind boggling to observe that only a few companies have an excellent process Governance in place and consistently manage their processes.
It is certainly valid to ask ourselves why we are not doing better and what can we do to remediate to the situation. The literature from the ABPMP BPM CBOKTM to the different Gartner reports and our understanding of process ownership and governance has certainly improved tremendously over the last 5 years and yet we still count only a few companies that manage by process year after year.
After pondering the question for a while here are a few thoughts on the question and some suggestions on how to approach Governance and Ownership in a way that can lead to better results and a sustainable process culture.
