Our Methodology




Value Addition

A methodology based on international IT Governance Frameworks The IT frameworks (COBIT & ITIL) correspond to a collection of internationally recognised rules, procedures and best practices on which our team relies to formulate its recommendations.

The adoption of ITIL & COBIT best practices, based on a process approach, provides a common basis, recommendations and language, offers a recognized framework, a reference that provides IT services, infrastructure, security organization, quality, efficiency, and reduces risks.
An approach based on the COSO methodology
The COSO methodology is designed to help the organization achieve these objectives, which are divided into 3 categories:
  • Operational: objectives aimed at the effective and efficient use of resources.
  • Reporting: objectives related to the reliability of reporting; and
  • Compliance: objectives of compliance with laws and regulations in force.
Structured approach
The mission is structured in several phases. Each phase is characterized by an objective, actions and deliverable (written or in the form of an animated presentation).

A shared approach
Our contacts with key actors and staff will be strongly involved in our approach. This participative involvement will aim to permanently validate our understanding of the issues raised and to gain a definite adhesion to the project.
