Discuss Isaca CGEIT Exam Topic 5 Question 111

Which of the following should be the MOST important consideration when establishing key performance indicators (KPIs) for IT initiatives?

AAn owner can be assigned

BProcesses can be optimized

CData collection can be automated

DQuality has been evaluated

Suggested Answer: D

The quality of KPIs is the most important consideration. KPIs must be relevant, accurate, aligned with objectives, and capable of driving meaningful decision-making. Without quality evaluation, even automated or well-owned KPIs may mislead or fail to reflect performance accurately.

Assignment and automation enhance implementation, but they do not ensure the KPI's value or appropriateness for measuring success.
