The aim of the Information life cycle management process is to formulate strategy for the information
provisioning. An analysis is made of the future alternatives for IT-management, maintenance,
enhancement and renovation within any information domains that have been identified (many are
linked to business processes). When determining these requirements, consideration is given to
developments affecting business processes in the longer term, on the one hand. On the other hand,
regard is had to the current state of the information provisioning and any bottlenecks and problems
existing within it.
