Software as a Service (SaaS) is one of cloud computing offerings that attract organisations as a potential solution in reducing their IT cost. However, the functionality and reliability of the SaaS model is still questionable and raises concerns and hesitations in its adoption. This chapter proposes a framework that enables an organisation to assess its current IT landscape and provides readiness assessment for SaaS adoption. The framework adapts Business Aligned IT Strategy (BAITS) methodology as its foundation. A case study of a local council in UK is used to validate. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
