The Unit Representative group brings together individuals from campus organizations with ITS project leaders to prepare units, and the university as a whole, for new IT services.
Charge
As a group, the Unit Representatives will look ahead to important organizational and transition issues associated with new IT services. We will take on a shared responsibility in these areas:
Communication
- Provide input and review on the IT projects' key messages
- Bring our administration, HR, and IT staff members into the conversation
- Collect feedback from our constituents
- Serve as a voice of our unit, within the Unit Representative group
- Serve as a voice of the IT projects, within our unit
Supporting Constituents
- Assess impacts to our constituents; within the UR group build a shared understanding of those impacts
- Anticipate points of friction with the coming changes and recommend approaches
- Support events aimed at smoothing the transitions
Unit Readiness
- Take shared responsibility for unit readiness
- Identify a Unit Readiness Coordinator for each of our units
- Collaborate with our Unit Readiness Coordinators to carry out readiness activities
- Provide input on go/no-go decisions for our units
