Adaptive IT Governance, Agile Governance, Digital Transformation, Maturity AssessmentAbstract
The increasing complexity of digital transformation requires an adaptive, measurable, and contextaware IT governance model. However, existing frameworks such as COBIT, ITIL, TOGAF, and ISO/IEC 38500 tend to be partial and prescriptive, failing to address strategic, operational, and innovative needs holistically. This study proposes the Adaptive Digital IT Governance Framework, a
novel governance model synthesized from eleven leading IT frameworks and structured into three integrated domains: Govern, Manage, and Adapt. Employing a Design Science Research methodology, the model was developed through a systematic framework analysis, conceptual domain formulation, iterative implementation mapping, and the design of a maturity assessment instrument. The results demonstrate that the Adaptive Digital IT Governance Framework offers a modular, scalable, and value-driven governance solution suited for diverse organizational contexts. Theoretical contributions include extending the IT governance paradigm by integrating strategic alignment, agile governance, and digital sustainability. Practically, the framework provides actionable guidance for designing, assessing, and enhancing digital governance systems across sectors. Unlike previous cross-framework synthesis efforts, the Adaptive Digital IT Governance Framework explicitly introduces the Adapt domain, operationalizing governance agility, innovation capability, and sustainability measurement. This makes the Adaptive Digital IT Governance Framework the first modular, maturity-oriented framework that simultaneously integrates strategy, operations, and adaptability, positioning it as a next-generation
model to support organizational resilience and sustainable digital transformation.
