Service Description

In addition to these core responsibilities, ITDs help with:

Enterprise architecture
Five-year roadmaps in partnership with OIT
Application Lifecycle Management through utilization of the Technology Planning Workbooks (TPWs)
Accessibility Planning

Five Year Roadmaps
Product Health Scores and strategic planning for IT systems
