WAN Optimisation
Govern WAN optimisation with defined accountability and measurable metrics.
Overview
Operational teams often lack defined governance for WAN optimisation: responsibilities, policies and risk assessments are inconsistent or undocumented, making it difficult to measure optimisation results or show alignment with organisational requirements.
The solution defines governance structures, role definitions, documented controls, risk assessment practices and measurable performance metrics with reporting to provide accountability and traceable evidence; the scope is limited to WAN optimisation governance and explicitly excludes operational service delivery, procurement decisions, LAN or application engineering and responsibilities retained by other business units.
