In many organisations, ICT management operates in silos. Teams focused on governance, compliance, risk, and operations often work independently, leading to inefficiencies, duplicated efforts, and gaps in strategy. The eGRACS framework offers a transformative solution: unified ICT governance that integrates all functions into one cohesive system.

The Problem with Siloed ICT Management

1. Inefficient Resource Allocation

When teams operate in silos, resources are often wasted on redundant processes and overlapping responsibilities.

2. Poor Communication and Collaboration

Disconnected teams struggle to share information, leading to misaligned strategies and missed opportunities for synergy.

3. Increased Security and Compliance Risks

Fragmented systems create gaps that can be exploited by cyber threats and lead to compliance violations.

4. Limited Visibility

Silos prevent organisations from gaining a holistic view of their ICT environment, making it harder to identify risks and optimise operations.
