A GENERIC METHOD FOR BEST PRACTICE REFERENCE MODEL APPLICATION

Abstract

The perceived importance of the topic IT governance increased in the last decade. Best practice reference models (like ITIL, COBIT, or CMMI) promise support for diverse challenges IT departments are confronted with. Therefore, the interest in best practice reference models grows and more and more companies apply BPRM to support their IT governance. But there is limited knowledge about how BPRM are applied and there is no structured method to support the application and lift the full potential of BPRM. Therefore, this paper presents the construction and evaluation of a generic method for the application of BPRM. Following the language-based approach of method engineering, elements of methods will be derived and formally described. The criteria of design science research presented by Hevner et al., 2004 will be applied to the evaluation of the constructed method. Intention of this research is to reduce the inefficiencies caused by the inconsistent use of best practice reference models.
