Process
In collaboration with Contracts and Procurement Services, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) provides IT solution and service contract reviews which serve to assess the technical, security, privacy, and accessibility properties of a product or service prior to purchase.
OIT seeks to manage risk and facilitate effective implementation of IT products and services. These reviews serve to provide an understanding of the risk profile of a solution or service and its integrations with existing IT services at the University. Departments will receive an assessment, recommendations, and/or requirements for moving forward with their contract.
