COBIT-5 practice question 6 of 25
Time-to-market is a metric that is directly related to which of the following enterprise goals?
Full set: 160 questionsThe enterprise goal "Portfolio of competitive products and services" is directly measured by the organization's ability to innovate and bring offerings to the market efficiently. "Time-to-market for new products and services" is explicitly listed as a key metric for this goal. A shorter time-to-market indicates a more agile and competitive enterprise, capable of responding quickly to market demands and opportunities, thereby enhancing its product and service portfolio.
A. This is an IT-related goal, not an enterprise goal. While it can influence time-to-market, it is not the direct enterprise goal being measured.
B. Optimizing internal processes is a means to an end. It supports achieving a faster time-to-market but is not the ultimate enterprise goal measured by it.
