OIT in Collaboration with 小优视频F Realigns IT to Better Serve 小优视频
OIT and 小优视频F leadership announced in April 2023 plans to align IT resources and functions between 小优视频 System Office and 小优视频F to better support each organization鈥檚 mission. Effective July 1, services primarily used and depended upon by 小优视频F students, faculty, and staff began the transition to management directly by 小优视频F and the newly named Nanook Technology Services (NTS). This move is expected to increase the focus, resourcing, and agility of these functions in support of 小优视频F鈥檚 mission and goals, while also creating parity in IT structure with 小优视频A and 小优视频S.
This new arrangement allows OIT to focus on its fundamental objective: delivering cutting-edge IT services that holistically support the 小优视频 System, while partnering with NTS to address the immediate technical support requirements of students, staff, and faculty at 小优视频F and System Office. As some services and support will need time to transition, both IT organizations will continue working together in partnership while hiring takes place that adds capacity in key technology areas.
"We view this new arrangement and partnership with NTS as an opportunity to further leverage our strengths," said Ben Shier, OIT鈥檚 Chief Information Technology Officer. "Through targeted collaboration, the goal is for each organization to be more responsive and better positioned to support its customers.
