A Holistic Methodology for Digital Governance Transition and Measuring Its Effect on Enterprise Companies

Digital transformation has become one of the most emphasized issues for organizations today. Organizations have a long way to go in this difficult road. First of all, they should develop and measure their governance skills, and then they need to create the necessary studies in both technological and managerial terms for IT systems to become a value. While doing all these, they should also create a risk management structure with a correct approach by performing consultancy, supervision, and evaluation services completely. In line with this whole process, there are different standards and practices in every field they need to follow. This paper presents a methodology proposition in a general perspective that can be applied end-to-end in the field of digitalization, starting from the governance structure to the IT value-adding strategy. Thanks to this new methodology, it is possible to see many processes such as governance, consultancy, digital transformation, auditing, internal control, which are disconnected from each other, in the big picture and arrange all activities accordingly. With long-term follow-up, the strategic and tactical perspectives of institutions can be created and their progress over time can be followed by this new methodology. This paper performs both qualitative and quantitative measurements of the applications of the new methodology to compare them with existing ones. This methodology introduces a holistic methodology lacking in the market.
