Information technology governance is considered one of the innovative practices that can provide support for decision-makers. Interestingly, it has become increasingly a de facto for organizations in seeking to optimise their performance. In principle, information technology governance has emerged to support organizations in the integration of information technology (IT) infrastructures and the delivery of high-quality services. On the other hand, decision-making processes in public sector organisations can be multi-faceted and complex, and decision makers play an important role in implementing technology in the public sector. The aim of this paper is to shed some light on current opportunities and challenges that IT governance is experiencing in the context of public sector services. In this respect, this paper examines the factors influencing the decision-making process to fully appreciate IT governance. Furthermore, this study focuses on combining institutional and individual perspectives to explain how individuals can take decisions in response to institutional influences.

Persoalan utama yang menyebabkan kegagalan implementasi <em>Information Technology Governance</em> (ITG) terletak pada operasional TI. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: 1) mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor kepemimpinan yang menitikberatkan kepada TI berpengaruh dalam keberhasilan maupun kegagalan implementasi tata kelola TI; (2) Sejauh mana mana visi kepemimpinan dapat mendorong implementasi ITG pada Sektor Publik. Metode kualitatif digunakan untuk memecahkan masalah tersebut, lokasi penelitian ini berada di Kota Salatiga dan Kabupaten Bengkayang. Dalam penelitian ini ditemukan faktor-faktor yang berperan seperti: komitmen kepala daerah, kemampuan dalam menjabarkan visi dan misi, ketersediaan regulasi dan aturan, dukungan untuk mengimplementasikan TI, kemampuan dalam konsolidasi dan pengelolaan, penataan kelembagaan, dukungan dan alokasi anggaran, ketersediaan infrastruktur, sumber daya manusia, dan kemampuan dalam mengembangkan strategi implementasi.

Several studies show that 75% of the adoption of technology often leads to failure. The main problem that causes the failure of the implementation of Information Technology Governance (ITG) lies in IT operations. This study aims to: 1) identify leadership factors that focus on IT that influence the success or failure of IT governance implementation; (2) The extent to which the leadership vision can encourage the implementation of ITG in the Public Sector. Qualitative methods are used to solve the problem, the location of this research is in Salatiga City and Bengkayang Regency. This study found factors that play a role such as the commitment of the regional head, the ability to describe the vision and mission, the availability of regulations and rules, support for implementing IT, the ability to consolidate and manage, institutional structuring, support, and budget allocation, availability of infrastructure, resources human resources, and the ability to develop implementation strategies.

Information Technology (IT) governance deals with how decision-making authority concerning IT is distributed across the firm. Based upon that distribution of authority, different behaviors and consequent decisions can be observed. A fundamental question is the degree of centralization and decentralization of that authority and the ability to standardize. Standardization often has benefits, but there can be negative repercussions if the standard does not take into account localized needs. The dominant governance mechanism has changed as technology and available tradeoffs have changed.

There are many opinions that information technology governance is only suitable to be applied by large-scale companies. However this has not been proven to be true. Many small and medium-sized startups fail because they do not have good governance plans. This means that even small and medium-sized companies also need proper IT implementation planning. The purpose of this study was to measure the maturity level of information technology governance, particularly in terms of monitoring and evaluating IT performance, implementing internal controls, and compliance with company external regulations. Based on calculations, this game development company is at maturity level 3 (Defined Process). In addition, it was found that the biggest gap was in the Skill and Expertise attributes and the Goals and Measurement attributes. This study also provides recommendations for companies based on gap analysis in each process.

Information technology (IT) governance has been a perennial item on the corporate agenda of many organizations. Ever since IT proved to be more than an administrative tool, researchers and practitioners have pondered its governance. Defined as the locus of IT decision-making authority (Brown & Magill, 1994; Sambamurthy & Zmud, 1999), discussions concerning IT governance have flourished for more than four decades across research communities and boardrooms. Posed as a question of centralization during the 70s, IT governance drifted towards decentralization in the 80s, and the recentralization of IT decision-making was a 90s trend. Today, IT governance is experiencing yet another transformation, and persists as a complex and evolving phenomenon (Grembergen, 2003). As business environments continuously change and new technologies evolve rapidly, how to govern IT effectively remains an enduring and challenging question. This chapter discusses past developments and the present status quo of IT governance, and outlines several critical questions, which are pending future investigation.
