Project Request

The Project Request Process facilitates initiation of new technology initiatives and projects that enhance the administration of the University. All technology projects requiring IT resources must go through this process to be approved by the CIO and IT Services Executive Management.

In order to propose a technology project, the first step is to submit a project request form that initiates the process.

Request a Project

1. Fill out and submit the Project Request Form.

2. The project request will enter the project request queue and be reviewed.

3. Approved project requests will be prioritized, assigned a project manager and assigned to the correct project portfolio.

4. The assigned Project Manager will schedule a Project Initiation/Data Elicitation meeting with the Requester/Project Sponsor and other relevant resources to address outstanding questions and obtain information required to draft the project charter.

5. The Project Manager will meet with the core project team members to produce a project plan and determine an achievable target project completion date.

6. The Project Manager will complete the project charter (which includes a high-level plan with a timeline) and schedule a QAA (Quality Assurance Assessment) meeting with the Requester/Project Sponsor and other stakeholders for approval/sign-off on the project charter to allow work to commence on the project.
