IT Business Alignment is the ability of information technology organizations to produce business value. When achieved, a business organization is able to use information technology effectively to achieve business objectives - typically improved financial performance or marketplace competitiveness.

For most organizations, the business objectives are defined by groups like the Board of Directors, Trustees, or Executive Management. These goals are ultimately listed in Annual Reports, Strategic Objectives, and long-term planning documents. After the planning is done, objectives are passed down for the organization to achieve these goals.
