解説
問 3
- ア
正解 The CIO (Chief Information Officer) is a senior management-level officer who aligns the business strategy with the information strategy and oversees the planning and development of information systems from a company-wide perspective. The task in this question, “formulating a company-wide information system development plan that ensures consistency with the business strategy”, is exactly the CIO's own job, and the CIO holds both the position and the authority to make decisions across the entire company. Therefore, the most appropriate person to be responsible is the CIO, and the correct answer is ア.
Incorrectイ
The CTO (Chief Technology Officer) is a position that oversees “technology” strategy, such as technology development and R&D for products and services, and its role differs from that of the person responsible for a company-wide information system development plan aligned with the business strategy.
Incorrectウ
The department head of a core business is only responsible for their own department (a specific business area) and is not in a position to coordinate the interests of all departments across the company and align them with the business strategy. Their scope is too narrow to be responsible for a company-wide development plan.
Incorrectエ
The planning staff member of the information systems department is at the working level of carrying out the practical work of drawing up plans, and does not hold the management-level authority to decide on and oversee a company-wide development plan. They are not appropriate as the responsible person.
ここがポイント
- CIO (Chief Information Officer) = a senior management-level officer who aligns the business strategy with the information strategy and oversees company-wide planning and development of information systems.
- Distinguish the difference in roles between the CIO (who oversees information strategy) and the CTO (who oversees technology and R&D).
