An essential element when determining the initial scope of a governance system is to have a clear understanding of the enterprise context and strategy. This foundational knowledge allows stakeholders to align the governance objectives with the overall goals and strategy of the organization. By understanding the context in which the governance system will operate, including the regulatory environment, market conditions, and internal dynamics, organizations can effectively tailor the governance framework to meet the specific needs and challenges they face.

This alignment ensures that the governance system supports strategic initiatives and facilitates decision-making processes that are consistent with the organization’s vision and mission. Additionally, understanding the enterprise context helps prioritize initiatives that will drive maximum value and mitigate risks effectively. This approach allows for a more coherent integration of governance principles within the organizational structure, ultimately enhancing the system's effectiveness and sustainability.
