description Information technology governance (ITG) practices rely on both human and nonhuman actors to support the creation of business value in organisations. The role of nonhuman actors in shaping the ITG practices has been given limited attention within the ITG literature.In proposing a model of ITG, this paper highlights the interplay of human and technological artefacts in shaping the ITG practices.Using a case study approach, this paper explores the relationship and interaction between ITG arrangements and IT infrastructure in an IT centralization project conducted over a number of years in a university.The analysis from this study highlights how problems in aligning actors’ interests and lack of appropriate strategies lead to a failure in establishing a stable ITG network.
