Validación empírica del marco de gobierno de green it: caso de estudio Ecuaquimica

Abstract

Information technology or IT has become an essential part of an organization. There are many technological tools that allow streamlining and automating processes. IT is used to collect, maintain, secure, process and retrieve information. Therefore, companies implement IT governance frameworks, which is an element of corporate governance, which aims to improve overall IT management, identify and evaluate IT performance, to provide commercial value to the company. However, the use of technology has an impact on the environment. Therefore, control of IT practices should be minimized, minimizing the impact on the environment. Environmental sustainability is the key to the sustainable development of an organization. With this, the present project arises that aims to perform an empirical validation of an IT Governance model through a case study for the implementation of an SMA and GTI framework. For this, a survey of 10 employees of the Ecuachemical Company was carried out, the SPSS software was used for statistical calculations such as, descriptive analysis of the data and Student's t-test. The evidence obtained from the validation indicates that a GTI framework, structured in processes, activities and subactivities, it allows to evaluate, direct and monitor the practices of Sustainable IT. Also if it includes the characteristics and best practices defined in other standards related to SMA and GTI, It will allow efficient use of IT resources to minimize environmental impact.
