While I was fixing my Google Reader feed for BusinessWorld‘s IT Matters site (they changed from http://www.itmatters.com.ph/RSS/itmatters.rss to http://www.bworldonline.com/RSS/itmatters.rss), one article caught my eye:
My first reaction was, “No sh*t, Sherlock!” After reading the article and finding out that it’s not talking about software engineering practices (which I am sure isn’t being practiced by many local software houses) but the low adoption rates of best practices in Auditing and Risk Management in IT departments, my reaction was still “No sh*t, Sherlock!”. I mean, if you’re dealing with foreign clients and yet you’re not familiar with those processes then you have a big problem on your hands. Either that or you know a good place with steak and strippers.
Since we’re at the topic of Best Practices, I might as well cover it in this post.
