Sector Blueprint definition guidelines

Currently, RISA developed guidelines for CDOs to develop their sector blueprint. Please refer to the guidelines provided by RISA on Blueprint definition.

Indeed, each CDO is supposed to provide his/her sector guidelines to RISA. The elaboration of these guidelines is subject to some principles that are gathered in the guidelines. The institution’s IT blueprint is a basic requirement for RISA’s approval and MINECOFIN’s funding for IT projects. The blueprint results into clear steps namely: the AS-IS situation, the To-Be situation, the Gap analysis and the roadmap.

Developing a target blueprint requires careful planning, collaboration, and adaptability. It serves as a guiding document to steer the organisation toward its intended goals while allowing for flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances or opportunities.

Developing a target blueprint involves creating a detailed plan or framework that outlines the specific goals, strategies, and actions required to achieve a desired outcome or vision.

Here are the steps for the development of the sector’s blueprint set-up by RISA Guidelines:

For detailed content of each step, please refer to the Blueprint Development Guidelines for GoR document.

Following these steps helps ensure a systematic and comprehensive approach to developing a sector blueprint in line with RISA guidelines, facilitating successful implementation and achievement of sector goals.
