The  COBIT  5  Framework  

• Simply stated, COBIT 5 helps enterprises create optimal value


from IT by maintaining a balance between realising benefits and
optimising risk levels and resource use.
• COBIT 5 enables information and related technology to be
governed and managed in a holistic manner for the entire
enterprise, taking in the full end-to-end business and functional
areas of responsibility, considering the IT-related interests of
internal and external stakeholders.
• The COBIT 5 principles and enablers are generic and useful for
enterprises of all sizes, whether commercial, not-for-profit or in
the public sector.

Governance  and  Management  

• Governance ensures that enterprise objectives are achieved by


evaluating stakeholder needs, conditions and options; setting
direction through prioritisation and decision making; and
monitoring performance, compliance and progress against agreed-
on direction and objectives (EDM).
• Management plans, builds, runs and monitors activities in
alignment with the direction set by the governance body to achieve
the enterprise objectives (PBRM).

15
© 2011 ECC International
In  Summary  …  

COBIT 5 brings together the five principles that


allow the enterprise to build an effective governance
and management framework based on a holistic set of
seven enablers that optimises information and
technology investment and use for the benefit of
stakeholders.

Processes are one of the seven enabler categories for governance and management of enterprise IT, as explained in
COBIT 5, chapter 5. The specifics for the processes enabler compared to the generic enabler description are shown
in figure 8.

A process is defined as ‘a collection of practices influenced by the enterprise’s policies and procedures that takes
inputs from a number of sources (including other processes), manipulates the inputs and produces outputs 25
(e.g.,
© 2011 ECC products, services)’.

The process model shows:


activities within the process.

Model
Separating Governance
COBIT 5 is not &
prescriptive, but from the Management
previous text it is clear that it advocates that enterprises implement governance
and management processes such that the key areas are covered, as shown in figure 9.

In theory, an enterprise can organise its processes as it sees fit, as long as the basic governance and management objectives
are covered. Smaller enterprises may have fewer processes; larger and more complex enterprises may have many
processes, all to cover the same objectives.

The COBIT 5 process reference model subdivides the governance and management processes of enterprise IT into two
main areas of activity—governance and management—divided into domains of processes:
s Governance—This domain contains five governance processes; within each process, EDM practices are defined.
s Management—These four domains are in line with the responsibility areas of PBRM (an evolution of the
COBIT 4.1 domains), and they provide end-to-end coverage of IT. Each domain contains a number of processes,

Processes for Enterprise IT as in COBIT 4.1 and previous versions. Although, as described previously, most of the processes require ‘planning’,
‘implementation’, ‘execution’ and ‘monitoring’ activities within the process or within the specific issue being
addressed—e.g., quality, security—they are placed in domains in line with what is generally the most relevant area of
activity when regarding IT at the enterprise level.

The COBIT 5 process reference model is the successor of the COBIT 4.1 process model, with the Risk IT and Val IT
process models integrated as well. Figure 10 shows the complete set of 37 governance and management processes
within COBIT 5.

COBIT Process Assessment Model

• The assessment process involves establishing a capability


rating for each process. It involves:
– Defined capability levels
– Process attributes used to rate each process
– Indicators on which to base the assessment achievement of each
process attribute
– A standard rating scale

28

s )NDICATORS ON WHICH TO BASE THE ASSESSMENT ACHIEVEMENT OF EACH PROCESS ATTRIBUTE BASED ON AND ALIGNED WITH
ISO/IEC 15504)
s ! STANDARD RATING SCALE FROM )3/)%# 

2.2.1 Process Capability Levels


The capability of each assessed process is expressed as a capability level from 0 to 5, as shown in figure 2. Each process
capability level is aligned with a process situation.

Figure 2—Process Capability Levels


Process Level Capability
0 (Incomplete) The process is not implemented or fails to achieve its process purpose. At this level, there is little or no evidence of any systematic
achievement of the process purpose.
1 (Performed) The implemented process achieves its process purpose.
2 (Managed) The performed process is now implemented in a managed fashion (planned, monitored and adjusted) and its work products are
appropriately established, controlled and maintained.
3 (Established) The managed process is now implemented using a defined process that is capable of achieving its process outcomes.
4 (Predictable) The established process now operates within defined limits to achieve its process outcomes.
5 (Optimizing) The predictable process is continuously improved to meet relevant current and projected business goals.

Process capability level 0 does not have an attribute. Level 0 reflects a non-implemented process or a process that fails to
at least partially achieve its outcomes.

As part of the scoping, the enterprise should choose which level of capability it requires, depending on business objectives.
Scoping can also restrict an assessment to reduce the complexity, effort and cost of the assessment.

2.2.2 Process Attributes 29


Within the COBIT PAM, the measure of capability is based on the nine process attributes (prefixed by PA) defined in
© 2011 ECC International
ISO/IEC 15504-2, as shown in figure 3. Each attribute applies to a specific process capability. Process attributes are used
to determine whether a process has reached a given capability.

2.2.4 Rating Scale
Each attribute is rated using a standard rating scale defined in the ISO/IEC 15504 standard. These ratings consist of:
Rating Levels
s N—Not achieved. There is little or no evidence of achievement of the defined attribute in the assessed process.
s P—Partially achieved. There is some evidence of an approach to, and some achievement of, the defined attribute in
the assessed process. Some aspects of achievement of the attribute may be unpredictable.
s L—Largely achieved. There is evidence of a systematic approach to, and significant achievement of, the defined
attribute in the assessed process. Some weaknesses related to this attribute may exist in the assessed process.
s F—Fully achieved. There is evidence of a complete and systematic approach to, and full achievement of, the defined
attribute in the assessed process. No significant weaknesses related to this attribute exist in the assessed process.

There is a need to ensure a consistent degree of interpretation when deciding which rating to assign. The table in
figure 4 describes the rating in terms of both the original rating scale (defined previously) and those ratings translated
into a percentage scale showing the extent of achievement.

Figure 4—Rating Levels


N Not achieved 0 to 15% achievement
P Partially achieved >15% to 50% achievement
L Largely achieved >50% to 85% achievement
F Fully achieved >85% to 100% achievement

The assessors use these scales during their assessment to guide their judgement of the current level of achievement.

2.2.5 Determining the Capability Level


The capability level of a process is determined by whether the process attributes at that level have been largely or fully
achieved and whether the process attributes for the lower levels have been fully achieved. The table in figure 5 outlines
each level and the necessary ratings that must be achieved.

increasingly part of every aspect of business and public life.
• The need to drive more value from IT investments and manage an
increasing array of IT-related risk has never been greater.

COBIT  5  Implementa/on  (cont.)  

• ISACA has developed the COBIT 5 framework to help enterprises


implement sound governance enablers. Indeed, implementing good
GEIT is almost impossible without engaging an effective
governance framework. Best practices and standards are also
available to underpin COBIT 5.
• Frameworks, best practices and standards are useful only if they are
adopted and adapted effectively. There are challenges that need to
be overcome and issues that need to be addressed if GEIT is to be
implemented successfully.
• COBIT 5: Implementation provides guidance on how to do this.
