Organizations must effectively implement IT governance and enterprise architecture to optimize IT investments, reduce related risks, and align IT strategy with business goals. In this regard, the present study examines the capability level of IT processes in a construction company using the COBIT 5 IT governance framework, which is one of the most comprehensive frameworks and is compatible with many enterprise architecture frameworks. The goal of this research is to provide the necessary foundations for IT governance in the company by offering effective solutions. The roadmap for this project consists of three main phases. In the first phase, the macro and detailed analysis of mission statements and strategies are collected, and the main needs and challenges are identified through interviews with stakeholders, experts, and field observations. Then, using the COBIT 5 goals cascade, 24 value-creating processes out of 37 were selected for evaluation. To assess these selected processes, a questionnaire was designed based on the Gottman method, and the current status of each process was determined. In the second phase, the design of the desired IT state was undertaken. The IT vision and mission statements were developed, and for each selected process, strategic objectives and key performance indicators were determined. In the third phase, the gap between the current and desired capability of each process was identified, and a gap analysis document was prepared. Transition options and risk mitigation solutions for the strategic objectives were presented, and a RACI matrix was developed to clarify the role of each responsible party in achieving the defined strategic objectives. In the construction company under study, the results showed that the company, in general, is at a weak level in terms of IT maturity. The highest level of capability in this domain was related to the processes in Building, Acquiring and Implementing (BAI) , with an average level of 1.2, while the lowest was in the evaluating, Directing and Monitoring (EDM) , with an average of zero, indicating the incompleteness of these processes and the urgent need for their improvement.
