Technology issues The following strategic issues are based on BDMP’s analysis of feedback and information provided by UTC technology stakeholders. Strategic Technology Issues are categorized as follows: People Issues (5): • Issues related to how the UTC community perceives, promotes, and supports technology. Process Issues (8): • Issues related to technology planning, procurement, and service delivery. Technology Issues (5): • Issues related to technology accessibility, utilization, and security.
Technology issues Comments External (State) constraints on hiring (People 3&4) limit options for UTC hiring. UTC must value IT skills across the campus regardless of division and department Identify ratios for staff to faculty / staff to students that allows for scalability with the growth of UTC (People 1) Centralized ticketing system for Tier 1 support across UTC Replacing Bradford could be a quick win, but it should not be removed with an adequate replacement
