  46. The IT Challenge • Not Fully funding IT costs • Example cost of media equipment only but not support! • Can’t say NO and don’t fund YES • Departments want more and if ITS can’t service them, they do it themselves or complaints. Then ITS must support. • Personnel needs and costs • Dependency on PT and high cost of FT • One-time funding model • Cost of Infrastructure and Technology • Change and Growth of IT industry • training, update, outdate, new technology • IT growth at UVSC in requests & expectations • WebCT should be up 24x7 but no-one is here on Sundays!

  48. 1. IT Strategic Plan • Never approved because cost too much! • Avoided • Need direction even if there is no funding! • We spend the money even if we don’t plan it! (~ 5 million last year - not on salaries)

  49. 2. Examine everything • IT Task Force • Look at IT personnel from campus-wide perspective • Re-organize IT personnel for efficiency • Identify and prioritize IT issues • Look at all expenses and suggest cost savings • Create centralized system for requests • Create self-funding mechanisms for requests • Set limits on departments without identifying real costs. (fund support as well as technology) • Look at Technology fee • Create Strategic Plan • Grants and External Funding Sources
