Project Objective

Development of a strategic plan and ongoing strategic planning process for information technology at Miami University. This strategic plan and process integrates with and supports the overall University vision and mission.

The project followed a four-phase strategic planning approach, fast tracking where possible, including 1) an environmental analysis; 2) development of the strategic plan; 3) development of tactics and measures; and 4) implementation, monitoring, evaluation and adjusting. See Strategic Planning Process.

The strategic plan sets the stage for effectively and efficiently managing the portfolio of technology projects and programs on the Miami University campus.

The time frame for the first two phases of the project was July 2003 through January 2004. The strategic plan became final in May 2004. Tactical planning began in April 2004 for FY05 initiatives.

“Information technology is now well understood as a strategic resource in higher education, a driving force in enabling change. Information technology continues to transform teaching, learning, scholarship, research, business and administrative practices, and our relationships with students, alumni, and many other constituents.” – EDUCAUSE
