"The top performing companies succeed in obtaining value from IT where others fail, in part, by implememnting effective IT governance to support their strategies and institutionalize best practices. IT Governance involves specifying decision rights and accountabilities for important IT decisions. The goal is to encourage "desirable behaviors" in the use of IT." - Peter Weill of the Sloan Institute March 2004

Over the past decade, Corporate Governance and Compliance have been elevated to the forefront of requirements for the day-to-day operations of any business. The cost of governance and compliance can be an extraordinary burden on any business but especially a small business. Annual expenditures for Governance and Compliance have increased over the past 3 years. The average firm has seen their annual audit fees increase by an average of 30% between 2002 and 2008. The average cost to a private firm is between $50,000.00 and $100,000.00 while the costs to a publicly held company can run into the millions!

Along with the monetary impact that compliance and governance has forced on corporations there is also the impact to the organization itself. With additional staff and the often times vague interpretations of the laws many companies feel overwhelmed.
