This presentation provides solutions to implement governance for User Developed Applications (UDAs) across a large enterprise.

USAA was founded in 1922 when 25 Army officers got together in San Antonio, Texas. They couldn’t find insurance companies to insure their automobiles because military lifestyles were considered too risky. So they pooled their money and formed an association to insure one another when no one else would. Today, USAA remains an organization that places the best interests of our members first. To protect our members and the financial strength of the organization, USAA has adopted a strong governance framework that is transforming the way professionals control the proliferation and management of User-Develop Applications (UDAs). This session discusses solutions to the challenges of governing UDAs across a large enterprise including:

  • Defining the scope of UDA governance
  • Reviewing implementation milestones that measure success
  • Monitoring adherence to governance standards
  • Building awareness of the benefits of UDA Governance
