The Wyoming State IT Governance Program establishes a framework for providing information and recommendations to the Chief Information Officer (CIO) to ensure effective and efficient use of technology throughout the executive branch. The program identifies the decision rights and accountability framework to encourage desirable behavior in the use of technology.

The Wyoming State IT Governance Program is based on these guiding principles:

• Alignment

• Ensure technology related decisions support and augment the execution of the Governor’s priorities

• Collaboration

• Establish partnerships with private sector technology leaders, and state and local government business users to enhance the implementation of innovative technology

• Transparency

• Disseminate information to the executive branch business leaders to encourage the effective use of technology
