Executive  Summary  Working collaboratively with all Florida State College at Jacksonville College Information Technology Services (CITS) providers, College governance committees, College technology stakeholders, and the College System of Florida (FCS) information technology (ITS) stakeholders, this 3-year Master Plan represents an innovative, robust, and achievable pathway for significant improvements in College technology infrastructure, applications, ERP, and services. Educating in a high-tech, globally competitive space is challenging, particularly with a multifarious curriculum and (Generation C) student body. Moreover, challenges with new metric-based funding models that rely on data driven decisions call for advancements in data collection, storage, and analysis. The use of Business Intelligence (BI) tools to provide real-time data analysis and subsequently longitudinal views of the trends, patterns, and behaviors in institutional data is paramount to the College’s ability to make informed decisions and thrive in the 21st century.

The need to interact and compete globally has now reached higher education. Extending the reach of our institution to create new opportunities for access to education, accomplish state and national goals for college completion rates, and build the image and brand of our College as a technology leader requires comprehensive planning with respect to information technologies. This plan accommodates such requirements through closer collaboration and interactions with the College community, buildup of technology infrastructure to support new, more current models of computing, advancement of data environments and capabilities, and new and expanded managed services in support of academic and administrative technology stakeholder needs. Additionally, over the next three years this plan transitions through three primary foci: reorganization, retooling, and re-envisioning.

Page 6: CITS Strategic Plan

6  

Year  One  

Year-one focus in the plan involves restructuring. Restructuring includes how the College information technology is staffed; how it supports infrastructure, applications, ERP, and services; and how administrative and academic stakeholders achieve value, efficiency, and mobility in their computing experiences. Moreover, reorganization includes a cultural change in how the College technology community works together to achieve the College mission and vision. Through close, complete, and consistent collaboration and communication between IT professionals in centralized IT and the technology professionals not reporting into IT (i.e., campus techs and others), the technology vision and mission will successfully roll up to the College vision and mission. New operating principles and values guide a re-branded information technology organization to achieve new levels of technology innovation, socio-technical value, and service. Creation of a service catalog to define and set expectations for service levels, along with the Help Desk as a single point of contact (versus the current 5 help desks) for information technology services, represent critical elements of reorganization. The newly named and reorganized division, College Information Technology Services (CITS), communicates its message via its website at http://www.fscj.edu/CITS.

Year  Two  

Year-two focus in the plan involves retooling. Retooling includes design and construction of new and existing infrastructure in support of cloud computing; mobile computing; separation of development, test, and production networks; innovative pedagogy; advancement of data environments; and instantiation of a service management framework. Qualitative feedback, as part of the retooling effort, will be designed to more actively engage the end-user community and technology stakeholders with the future direction of College computing.

Retooling, in practice, also involves improvement in infrastructure

Page 7: CITS Strategic Plan

junctures where critical pathways (node nexuses) for voice, data, and video traffic intersect. Year-two of the plan also serves to redesign, relocate, and support a security network on which campus services and police can reliably and securely host applications. Finally, as part of retooling, implementation of a service management framework will bring into play cross-functional teams to build process and best practices for continuous improvement of information technology services.

Year  Three  

Year-three focus in the plan involves re-envisioning, or again envisioning what a fully capable, resourced, and collaborative College technology community can accomplish. Various College division visions for how we recruit and admit new students, reach new student markets, provide for converged models of course facilitation and learning, service students more efficiently, make data driven decisions, connect with graduates, and advance the College will be supported through available, reliable, secure, and scalable technology networks, systems, applications, and computing environments. In year-three of the plan, full implementation and availability of virtualized clients, mobile application, and WIFI computing using preferred devices and technologies, and networks in support of individual school mission and vision to advance face-to-face, online, and hybrid programs and research will be operational.

Intentionally, this plan is operationally and financially aggressive. This plan will serve as a collaborative document to guide technology implementations and to provide a roadmap for advancing the state of technology at the College. As noted previously, universities in the 21st century require modern and highly robust technology infrastructure and ecosystem to meet the increasing demands of online education, hybrid education, and paradigms of convergent classroom instruction. This College Information Technology Services 3-Year Master Plan involves five goals and 27 associated objectives.The plan objectives are described and detailed herein, and will serve

as a basis for CITS interim and annual reports to the College community.

Overview  of  the  3-­‐Year  Master  Plan  As noted, the College Information Technology Services 3-year Master Plan involves five goals organized into the following five categories: (i) Information Technology Governance, Communication, and Coordination; (ii) Information Technology Organization Development; (iii) Information Technology Portfolio Management; (iv) Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Infrastructure; and (v) Information Technology Services. IT Governance, Communication, and Coordination objectives involve establishment and maintenance of formal structures through which various College stakeholders can provide feedback, interact with the Chief Information Officer, and advise on stakeholder needs. Moreover, objectives related to this goal serve to involve College stakeholders in the design, construction, and advancement of technology implementations Collegewide. Information Technology Organization Development objectives create an opportunity to build a more informed and innovative technology community within the College. Information Technology Portfolio Management objectives are intended to bring improved financial planning and reporting to all technology implementations Collegewide. Information and Communication Technology

Infrastructure objectives serve to build technological capability and strength through re- engineered network facilities, advanced enterprise applications and data environments, and administrative and academic computing advancements. Finally, College Information Technology Services objectives create a more informed and supported College community, and modernize logical and physical technological environments.

Objective  3(b):  Information  Technology  Portfolio  Management

Objective  

Implement and balance IT Portfolio to achieve alignment with College mission and strategic goals; Evaluate risk-return profiles and priorities in an on-going manner.

Objective  Description  

IT Portfolio Management (ITPM) involves the application of systematic management to large classes of assets managed by enterprise Information Technology (IT) capabilities. CITS organizes all Information Technology initiatives into two portfolios: Services and Projects. Each portfolio is composed of four asset classes: (i) Infrastructure, (ii) Transactional, (iii) Informational, and (iv) Strategic (competitive advantage via educational technologies). One primary opportunity in ITPM is to move the governance and view of IT from that of a cost center to one of institutional investment. The promise of ITPM includes the quantification of previously informal IT efforts, enabling measurement and objective evaluation of investment scenarios. ITPM is distinct from IT financial management in that it has an explicitly directive, strategic goal in determining what to continue investing in versus what to divest from. Other benefits of the CITS ITPM program include: (i) central oversight of budget, (ii) risk management, (iii) strategic alignment of IT investments with institutional mission and vision, (iv) demand, and investment management along with standardization of investment procedure, (v) rules, and (vi) strategic planning. This objective serves to implement ITPM as part of the CITS governance structure and to optimize the value of IT investment for the College.

Moreover, introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT) into a networked environment requires extensive

Page 34: CITS Strategic Plan

34  

due diligence to meet engineering requirements for bandwidth, flow control, storage, security, quality of service, and other priority concerns. As a result, the connection of new hardware and software components into a production environment requires prior analysis and consideration regarding potential performance related issues. Upstream (system front-end) analysis along with downstream (system back- end) analysis provides a true engineering perspective on the additional load of new hardware and software components such that performance concerns can be avoided or mitigated. Each modification of space, new construction, or technology related project involves the potential to degrade network performance or insinuate downgraded performance into the specific component. This objective also involves formal, timely, and regular communications among facilities management and other technology stakeholders to ensure full value of technology hardware and software components is realized.

Objective  3(c):  Technology  Upgrades  and  Replenishment  

Objective  

Establish a College technology assessment, upgrade, and replenishment program that optimizes useful life of technology components.

Page 36: CITS Strategic Plan

36  

Objective  Description  

Specific factors such as mean time between failure, useful life, technology obsolescence, new requirements, and level of use determine cycles and instances where technology upgrades and replenishments should occur. Moreover, as virtual desktop integration technology is introduced, replenishment cycles are impacted in positive financial ways. Technology upgrade and replenishment decisions need to occur in a more granular fashion, rather than as a “one size fits all.” Consideration of specific need for upgraded technology, replacement technology, or additional technology should work in concert at the departmental level or closest to the end-user. As a result, technology upgrade and replenishment decisions will be tuned to end-user requirements and needs, as well as available funding. As the College technology infrastructure grows, available funds for technology upgrades and replenishment will become stretched further than currently deployed and heuristics will be developed through this objective to establish life-cycle policy for capital obsolescence that optimizes the useful life of all technology components.
