The University’s information technology governance structure advises on IT strategies, priorities, services and investments. The structure was established in 2012 to make decision-making about IT at the University more comprehensive and holistic, and to engage key stakeholders across the University in making recommendations on IT decisions and directions.
IT Governance boards:
The following three boards provide advice and guidance on the University’s information technology decision making:
- The IT Strategy Board provides strategic direction on IT issues and investments at the University and is responsible for providing oversight of major IT projects, service improvements and infrastructure investments.
- The IT Service Investment Board makes recommendations about services provided by UW-IT, including priorities for major UW-IT projects, and conducts an annual review of the Technology Recharge Fee.
- The Technology Recharge Fee (TRF) Advisory Committee supports the IT Service Investment Board in its annual assessment of the TRF by providing in-depth analysis, identifying issues and making recommendations.
- The IT Service Management Board ensures alignment of UW-IT services with institutional IT strategy and priorities, as identified by the other two governance boards, and optimizes the design, delivery, operation and sourcing of those services.
