Abstract

The information technology project manager's role includes preparation for upcoming initiatives. The organization's business objectives drive the direction of the upcoming initiatives. This paper proposes an approach to apply best practices in the preparation for the Sarbanes-Oxley assessments. The information technology project manager is seen as a valued leader in the organization [3]. They can be uniquely successful in understanding what will directly influence the decisions of the business leadership team.The information technology organization recognizes that it must allow the auditors, outsourcers, and business implementers the flexibility to use innovative, streamlined best practices when applicable throughout the preparation for the Sarbanes-Oxley assessment. The success of any effort is largely dependent upon how well it is organized.
