Process Governance defines the processes, procedures and controls required to manage and coordinate vast amount of process information. Process Governance is critical for large enterprises that have defined the enterprise processes under a centralized process repository. Many teams and subject matter experts contribute to this repository by bringing best practices and process improvements to be shared across the enterprise. Similarly, various stakeholders, such as project managers, perform tailoring of processes and methodologies contained in the repository for specific projects. The goal of process governance is to create a framework for process development, enhancement and dissemination by defining processes and procedures that that govern the access and use of all process content. Process Governance document also include procedures to identify, collect and integrate process improvements from several sources within the organization.
The Process Governance defines specialized roles that will own and manage specific contents of the repository. It separates corporate processes from project or business unit processes and takes into account the existing process automation infrastructure, access right, release and versioning of process assets. Process Governance clearly defines communication, approval and permissions protocol between the various stakeholders. For organizations seeking CMMI, the Governance addresses specific activities from Process Management process areas related to defining, deploying, implementing, monitoring, controlling and improving processes.
