Word from the author: Would it not be great if your IT did exactly what your organization wants and needs it to do? Surely, you want to invest only in projects that add the most value, tackle your biggest risks, use the most efficient building blocks and processes, and that cost you the least. This is where my AMORT system comes in, which will have you achieve success in a matter of days. The AMORT system is a subset of the TOGAF and COBIT governance frameworks. Just the minimum practical baseline to achieve the maximum result. In this book, I will use plain language to present short practical steps and surprising tips and ideas that will make life a lot easier for managers, directors and architects. The ideal is a situation where your IT is flexible and scalable, keeping your costs down during both busy and quiet periods. Where ad-hoc purchases and short-term investments are keenly aligned with your long-term vision. Where you have a point on the horizon to gradually work towards. Where your business strategy has been translated into the ideal strategy for your IT. To achieve this ideal, start reading this book. And after reading this book, you can fully focus on your organization, on your core expertise, because your IT does exactly what you want and need it to do. One of the acknowledgements: Prof. Dr. Aimé Heene, Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, Ghent University: 'The breadth of the subject matter covered and the depth with which subjects are explored makes this book an impressive one. In this book, many managers will undoubtedly find what they are looking for. The highly pragmatic approach to it all is bound to appeal to the target readership. In terms of real-life practices, you can certainly consider this book "validated." Chapter 8 is particularly strong, showing not only the author's extremely broad experience, but also bringing the preceding theory to life. This is quite a feat.'
