organization’s infrastructure and processes. As if that weren’t enough, you are also

business objectives and better serve its stakeholders. As a broker of IT services, IT

turn enables IT and business units to source and consume IT services together in line 
with a strategic plan that addresses IT goals as well as business objectives.
