Who is accountable for monitoring the performance of the execution of an EGIT implementation program plan against success metrics and adjusting long-term targets when necessary?
Correct Answer: A
Explanation
The board of directors is the highest-level governance body in an enterprise that provides strategic direction, oversight, guidance, and approval for information and technology governance. The board of directors is accountable for monitoring the performance of the execution of an EGIT implementation program plan against success metrics and adjusting long-term targets when necessary. This means that the board of directors is responsible for ensuring that the EGIT implementation program plan is aligned with the enterprise's vision, mission, values, strategy, goals, and objectives, and that it delivers the expected value and benefits to the enterprise and its stakeholders. The board of directors is also responsible for reviewing the progress and outcomes of the EGIT implementation program plan on a regular basis, using predefined success metrics such as key performance indicators (KPIs), key goal indicators (KGIs), key risk indicators (KRIs), etc., to measure the achievement of the program objectives and goals. The board of directors is also responsible for adjusting the long-term targets of the EGIT implementation program plan when necessary, based on the changing business needs, environment, risks, opportunities, etc., and ensuring that the program remains relevant and effective.References: : COBIT 2019 Implementation Guide: page 37-38 : COBIT 2019 Framework:
