INTRODUCTION

Strategic planning was the driver of NC State’s Office of Information Technology (OIT) Priority Roadmap for fiscal year 2010-11. In an economic downturn, OIT was presented with both challenges and opportunities as it strived to manage its day-to-day operations, while meeting regulatory requirements, improving existing services and delivering critical new ones to the campus community.

Focusing inwardly, OIT streamlined its organizational structure and internal operations to reduce complexity and redundancies and to improve its overall information communication technology (ICT) services. Externally, OIT partnered with other campus IT organizations to initiate a new IT Governance structure that will strategically align campus’ IT objectives with the University’s mission – essentially defining the future direction of IT on NC State campus.

Formed in 2007, the Office of Information Technology provides campus-wide computing, information and communication technology services in support of the university’s academic and administrative goals. With a staff of 260 people and a budget exceeding $48 million, OIT is led by Dr. Marc Hoit, vice chancellor for information technology (VCIT) and CIO. OIT is organized into eight units: the Center for Virtual Computer Lab, Sam Averitt, vice provost; Communication Technologies, Greg Sparks, director; Enterprise Application Services, Gwen Hazlehurst, director; Infrastructure, Systems and Operations, John Black, director; Outreach, Communications and Consulting, Stan Martin, director; Security and Compliance, Mardecia Bell, director; the newly created Shared Services, Eric Sills, director; and Technology Support Services, Susan Klein, director.

Scope of Services

Managing an IT environment on a campus the size of NC State continues to be a complex task. To improve the use of IT as a driver for change for the university, OIT initiated a three-phase strategic planning process. The first phase was the development of a Strategic Operations Plan (SOP) in the fall of 2008, which focuses on how OIT teams work together as an organization. Last fall in partnership with other campus IT organizations, OIT initiated the second phase – improving IT Governance. The final phase will be to work collaboratively with the university to develop an NC State Strategic IT Plan.

A new inclusive IT Governance model for the university began to emerge this fiscal year – bringing OIT and college/departments IT efforts together like never before! This new structure will allow university IT to focus on five strategic areas: strategic alignment, value delivery, resource management, risk management, and performance measurement.

A major highlight of the IT Governance structure will be the formation of the IT Strategic Advisory Committee (ITSAC). Representing major functional activities on campus, ITSAC will focus on strategic alignment of IT with the University’s mission and goals. The new structure plans include the IT Leadership Committee (the Chief Financial Officer, the Provost and the VCIT as chair); the General Advisory Councils (the Faculty Advisory Council, Staff Advisory Council and the Student Advisory Group); several Advisory Committees in connection with specific projects or programs; and the Campus IT Directors, who will vet infrastructural and architectural decisions and recommendations from the various committees to the VCIT. The IT Governance structure is expected to be fully formed during the fall of 2011.

During this fiscal year, OIT also embarked on a reorganization and numerous projects to increase its operational effectiveness and efficiencies. Highlights include:

  • Budget and Reorganization – In the spring of 2011, in preparation for state of North Carolina budget cuts for fiscal year 2011-12, OIT implemented a 6% budget reduction, a loss of $1,389,290 in state appropriated funds, which included funding for 15 full-time positions. Simultaneously, OIT implemented organizational changes to eliminate some service redundancy and improve its ability to enhance existing services and deliver critical new services. A new unit, Shared Services, was created from the merger of staff from several different units. OIT Technology Support Services underwent some restructuring to provide a more effective support network of tiered services. These organizational changes also afforded OIT the opportunity to further blend the cultures of the former academic and administrative computing units so that the organization can better operate within cross-functional teams, and become “One IT.” Every OIT employee was affected by the organization changes.
  • Project and Portfolio Management – OIT renewed its commitment to employ project and portfolio management to prioritize and manage its complex projects and to enhance team collaboration in the new organizational structure.
  • Google Apps @ NC State – Embracing the spirit of “Collaboration, Communication and Education,” OIT completed the migration of all student email accounts to Google Apps @ NC State. This move has produced a “win-win” for the university, providing significant cost savings and access to a suite of popular collaboration tools for students, with 7.5 GB of storage space. OIT has begun moving employee email accounts to Google Apps. Once the employee migration is complete, all NC State students, faculty and staff will be on a single email and calendaring system!
  • We’ve Got (Voice) Mail! – This spring, a new campus voice mail system was rolled out to campus, consolidating the antiquated voice mail systems of Main Campus and the College of Veterinary Medicine into one feature-rich system. In addition to the traditional telephone interface, the new voice mail system allows campus users to access their voice mail via an email client.
  • OIT participated in the successful kickoff of the National Collaborative for Bio-Preparedness (NCB-Prepared) project to create a comprehensive bio-surveillance system to analyze and detect biological hazards.
  • eProcurement – As part of the Joint Enterprise Services (JES) partnership, OIT implemented PeopleSoft eProcurement and the components of the PeopleSoft Finance System needed for electronic purchasing for UNC-Chapel Hill. JES leverages the strengths of both institutions to provide robust services at reduced costs.
  • Identity and Access Management (IAM) – OIT started a number of initiatives to improve user access to enterprise resources on campus. Major initiatives begun include the planning of an identity management system, implementing an enterprise directory, automating password management, implementing group/role management, extending Shibboleth authentication services to various applications, extending authorization services provided by Security Access Request (SAR) and migrating from Novell to Active Directory for directory services.
  • Destiny OneCE – OIT began the implementation of the university’s first enterprise system for the management of non-credit courses. This required a partnership between the McKimmon Center and various colleges on campus.
  • Archiving and Retention – Google’s Postini Message Discovery was implemented to help university employees comply with state laws regarding the retention of public records, particularly email. Postini archives business-related email of those employees using the centrally supported email systems.
  • Web Hosting Services – With an anticipated rollout of July 1, 2011, OIT’s new Web Hosting Service will provide campus units a more cost-effective option to host their web presence and will increase their flexibility and speed of deploying dynamic, database-driven website applications. AFS-based Web services support will continue to be offered.
  • Managed Windows Desktop Service – OIT has rolled out the new business model for the managed desktop service that provides a standard Microsoft Windows-based workstation for use by university departments and computing facilities. This new business model was created through a zero-based budgeting process that provides a sustainable model for providing the cost of a supported workstation. Currently used by 3,000 NC State employees, the new environment will be based on Windows Active Directory, will use the Windows 7 operating system, and will significantly enhance OIT’s ability to manage and support client workstations at scale.
  • Virtualization – OIT and Information Technology and Engineering Computer Services (ITECS) partnered to create a VMware infrastructure service that provides hosting of leased virtual resources to run IT support groups’ dedicated system images. Using VMware virtualization, both OIT and ITECS have realized significant cost and energy savings through smaller server room foot prints and reduced hardware management time.
  • Data Center Facilities – Already at full capacity (in terms of space, power and cooling), the two campus data centers were improved to support required growth. In Data Center 1, OIT implemented an “island of improvement” to allow optimization of a small portion of the room to gain efficiencies from virtualization and higher rack densities. The cooling doors project implemented in Data Center 2 also allows higher rack density by providing focused cooling capability at the rack level. To facilitate further growth, OIT will need to undertake projects to add additional capacity.
  • File Services Project – This project will provide campus users networked file space that can be accessed from any computer without the need for specialized software. Provisioning for the initial set of administrative customers will be completed at the beginning of the third quarter of this year, with a general rollout to follow.
  • PeopleSoft Upgrade to 9.x – The upgrades for Financials and HR to version 9.1 are in progress as is the SIS 9.0 upgrade. All upgrades will provide improved user interfaces and vendor support for changes to regulations in addition to other enhanced system functionalities. Target implementation date for Financials 9.1 is April 2012 and HR 9.1/SIS 9.0 is October 2012. In addition, Asset Management will be implemented within the Financials 9.1 system as part of the Financials 9.1 project and an upgrade for the Tools version of the Portal is planned for October 2011 along with the integration of Shibboleth with the Portal.
