OIT in Collaboration with 萝莉社视F Realigns IT to Better Serve 萝莉社视
OIT and 萝莉社视F leadership announced in April 2023 plans to align IT resources and functions between 萝莉社视 System Office and 萝莉社视F to better support each organization鈥檚 mission. Effective July 1, services primarily used and depended upon by 萝莉社视F students, faculty, and staff began the transition to management directly by 萝莉社视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 萝莉社视F鈥檚 mission and goals, while also creating parity in IT structure with 萝莉社视A and 萝莉社视S.
This new arrangement allows OIT to focus on its fundamental objective: delivering cutting-edge IT services that holistically support the 萝莉社视 System, while partnering with NTS to address the immediate technical support requirements of students, staff, and faculty at 萝莉社视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.
