IT Project Prioritization Process
The need for information technology (IT) infrastructure and application development together with requests for new projects frequently exceed available resources. To manage resources efficiently and to ensure that important projects are accomplished in as timely a manner as possible, Technology and Educational Support Services (TESS) utilizes a project prioritization process to solicit input from TESS Executive Committee and establish project priorities for requested projects. The utilization of a project prioritization and management process ensures that resources are focused on projects which are deemed to be of the greatest need to the District and its colleges. Projects are prioritized based on pre-agreed to criteria, the focused commitment of resources to get projects done, the utilization of a collegial consultation model, and operational transparency.
