    &lt;span style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial&quot;>Developing or customizing the governance&#xD;
    processes is an incremental activity. As the processes are deployed across departments, there are always tension&#xD;
    between IT and Business teams. The idea is to start simple, and involve IT and Business stakeholders in the process&#xD;
    design. After first implementation it is possible to fine tune the processes.&lt;/span>&#xD;
