Implement Governance and Expand Customer Engagement

Implement Governance and Expand Customer EngagementOne of the critical success factors in delivering excellent information technology services is an understanding of campus goals and strategies, and ensuring IT investments are prioritized and aligned against them as broadly as possible. To achieve these goals we have established a comprehensive, campus-wide IT governance model and new program called 'One IT' to help strengthen partnerships across the campus IT community.
