The rising interest in IT governance has much to do with compliance initiatives. Increasing awareness that IT projects can easily get out of control and affect the performance of an organization have further fuelled this interest. Nevertheless, for many organisations, information is the most valuable but the least understood asset. Boards need visibility and assurance about the value of IT and how IT-related risks are managed.

Value, risk and control constitute key elements of both IT and enterprise governance. 

Avon helps organisations all over the world implement IT Governance Best Practices using proven frameworks and methodologies like COBIT and VALIT. It assists executive management in understanding their roles relating to IT-enabled investments with better appreciation of the costs, risks and benefits. By implementing these practices, firms are more likely to select better investments and execute them so that they realise or exceed expected return. Since successful investment programmes are hardly ever IT alone but heavily involve other departments, Avon helps companies streamline processes and transform their businesses.  Enterprise Transformation Services have thus become an important activity for Avon.

Avon assists organisations implement controls within their applications. It provides audit and assurance services for a range of diverse systems and infrastructure that include legacy systems besides the more contemporary ERP environments.
