Abstract

One of the most accepted review methods in the scientific community is the Systematic Literature Review (SLR). A SLR process allows determining the interest of the scientific community in the subject matter of the preliminary research, the type of research and the areas of knowledge to which the topic is more related, among other aspects. For our research, we need to determine the scientific basis of the portfolio of information technology (IT) project, as initial good practice for the implementation of an IT governance culture. Universities have been specifically selected as the type of organization in the communities that have developed formal processes and good practices for the implementation of IT governance. In addition to the SLR, a review was carried out based on non-conventional literature from repositories of prestigious professional organizations and universities. It is concluded that the portfolio of IT projects is a good practice of IT governance and that there is an interest from the scientific community. From this analysis, it is clear that there are works in both the area of Computer Science and the Administration of Organizations.

Highlights

  • Universities have adopted Information Technology (IT) within administrative and academic processes

  • Considering the total number of publications, it is observed that 60,74 % come from scientific databases, which allows to guarantee the scientific quality of the works found in the review

  • The remainder of works that correspond to nonconventional publications is important, because it comes from recognized institutions in the academic and professional field and complements the research work

Summary

Introduction

Universities have adopted Information Technology (IT) within administrative and academic processes. The question at this time is whether its use is adequate, that is, if IT has been acquired under an analysis of needs, if studies have been carried out to observe its benefits and possible risks when implemented, and especially if they have generated institutional value. The question of whether the technologies are aligned with the objectives of the organization and whether they are prioritized by top university management are aspects that have almost never been analyzed. Specific indicators are needed to confirm that IT is being used properly. A culture of IT governance can answer these questions. IT Governance and Portfolio of IT Projects
