COBIT 5 is a widely-used framework for implementing sound governance of enterprise IT (GEIT). Currently, the ISACA’s official implementation solution follows a sequentially ordered process, raising several issues related with lack of commitment from top management and misaligned solutions. Nevertheless, new project life-cycle strategies have emerged along with the agile paradigm for project management, providing flexible and adaptable environments for projects where the solution is complex and not clear, delivering the product incrementally with feedback loops. This research aims to eliminate some known challenges of COBIT 5 adoptions by providing a Scrum based methodology to address these programmes. Design Science Research Methodology was used to guide this work, where two iterations on the solution development, demonstration and evaluation activities were performed. With two different iterations to the same solution and two distinct demonstrations, it was possible to identify several relevant findings. Overall, the results demonstrated that an agile methodology is not sufficient to reduce the resistance to changes, however, it increased the commitment from senior managers on the adoption of new practices and allowed to detect scope misalignment earlier in the development of solutions.

COBIT 5是用于实施企业IT（GEIT）健全治理的广泛使用的框架。当前，ISACA的官方实施解决方案遵循顺序执行的过程，从而引发了一些与高层管理人员缺乏承诺和解决方案不当有关的问题。然而，新的项目生命周期策略与敏捷的项目管理范式一起出现了，为解决方案复杂且不清楚的项目提供了灵活，适应性强的环境，并通过反馈循环逐步交付了产品。这项研究旨在通过提供一种基于Scrum的方法来解决这些计划，从而消除采用COBIT 5的一些已知挑战。设计科学研究方法论被用来指导这项工作，其中对解决方案开发进行了两次迭代，进行了示范和评估活动。通过对同一解决方案进行两次不同的迭代并进行两次不同的演示，可以确定几个相关的发现。总体而言，结果表明，敏捷方法不足以减少对变更的抵制，但是，它增加了高级管理人员对采用新实践的承诺，并允许在解决方案的开发过程中尽早发现范围不一致。
