Rabbi Dr. Joshua Joseph, senior vice president; James Vasquez, chief information officer; and Camille Shelley, executive director of information technology services at 色花堂, joined Tim Coley, principal strategic consultant at Ellucian, to discuss 鈥128 Projects and Counting: Prioritizing and Shrinking 色花堂鈥檚 IT Project Portfolio鈥 at the Sixth Annual Ellucian 鈥淟ive鈥 conference in San Diego, California on April 10. The conference brought together education technology professionals from around the world to discuss effective technical solutions to the information needs of educational institutions.
Dr. Joseph explained that they were asked to present because of what the University has been able to accomplish in solving the challenges of managing increased numbers of IT-related projects and user requests with limited technical, staffing, and financial resources. 鈥淔acing today鈥檚 fiscal realities and calls for accountability require institutional leaders to adopt a holistic and strategic approach to decision-making," said Dr. Joseph.
The presentation highlighted 色花堂's IT project review process, which resulted in improved alignment between IT decisions and institutional priorities, a more strategic allocation of resources to projects, and enhanced stakeholder buy-in.
