Technology governance and economics

Practical governance.
Better technology decisions.

Technology decisions shape how an entire organization invests, operates, manages risk, and serves its stakeholders.

About the practice

Governance for the full technology lifecycle.

Eric Driscoll Consulting helps leaders establish practical governance, policies, and decision frameworks that guide the secure and responsible use of cloud, AI, software, data, and automation.

These decisions can influence investment and budgeting; procurement and vendor selection; cloud and application architecture; cybersecurity and data handling; AI adoption and responsible use; and delivery, operations, measurement, and eventual decommissioning.

Connected capabilities

Governance connects economics and engineering.

FinOps, AI economics and tokenomics, cloud optimization, and lightweight development provide practical ways to apply policy and decision frameworks.

Governance in practice

Guardrails that help teams move.

  • Establish clear decision rights, accountability, and ownership across the complete technology lifecycle.
  • Create practical security, architecture, financial, data, and AI guardrails through repeatable standards and transparent exception paths.
  • Effective governance is not bureaucracy for its own sake; clear guardrails, ownership, and exception paths help teams move securely and quickly.
