Modern organisations rely on their Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure and systems (IS), often requiring these organisations to invest significantly in order to address issues, maintain their position in the market or continue to meet the demands of their clients or shareholders. Therefore, great consideration must be given when deciding how to prioritise and justify these investments, requiring specific data and reporting to base these investment decisions upon to leadership tasked in deciding which investments to support or prioritise accordingly. This unit examines how value is determined from an ICT and IS perspective and the challenges, tools and techniques needed to produce a coherent case to support an investment decision.
On completion of this unit students should be able to:
Students will attend on campus classes as well as engage in learning activities through ECU's LMS

Students will engage in learning experiences via ECU’s LMS as well as additional ECU learning technologies
Learning activities include class presentations in which contemporary IT value management topics are examined by providing the theoretical aspects of the topic and demonstrating how they are reflected in practice. For the major case study assignment, students construct a business report supported by the collection of real life data. In undertaking these activities, students learn to discover, evaluate and apply IT value management theory to provide solutions to contemporary situations and to present their work in a professional manner.

For the purposes of considering a request for Reasonable Adjustments under the Disability Standards for Education (Commonwealth 2005), inherent requirements for this subject are articulated in the Unit Description, Learning Outcomes and Assessment Requirements of this entry. The University is dedicated to provide support to those with special requirements. Further details on the support for students with disabilities or medical conditions can be found at the Access and Inclusion website.
Students please note: The marks and grades received by students on assessments may be subject to further moderation. Informal vivas may be conducted as part of an assessment task, where staff require further information to confirm the learning outcomes have been met. All marks and grades are to be considered provisional until endorsed by the relevant School Progression Panel.
Integrity is a core value at Edith Cowan University, and it is expected that ECU students complete their assessment tasks honestly and with acknowledgement of other people's work as well as any generative artificial intelligence tools that may have been used. This means that assessment tasks must be completed individually (unless it is an authorised group assessment task) and any sources used must be referenced.
Breaches of academic integrity can include:
Serious outcomes may be imposed if a student is found to have committed one of these breaches, up to and including expulsion from the University for repeated or serious acts.
ECU's policies and more information about academic integrity can be found on the student academic integrity website.
All commencing ECU students are required to complete the Academic Integrity Module.
In some circumstances, Students may apply to their Unit Coordinator to extend the due date of their Assessment Task(s) in accordance with ECU's Assessment, Examination and Moderation Procedures - for more information visit https://askus2.ecu.edu.au/s/article/000001386.
Students may apply for Special Consideration in respect of a final unit grade, where their achievement was affected by Exceptional Circumstances as set out in the Assessment, Examination and Moderation Procedures - for more information visit https://askus2.ecu.edu.au/s/article/000003318.
