ROADMAP
The Roadmap shows how we will make progress towards our Target State. A high-level plan is in the works and additional details will be shared over time as they are refined and approved by leadership.
Transformative changes are required to mature Penn State’s A&BI capabilities. To provide the ability to operate efficiently, drive agility, and foster innovation we will:
- Build a foundational practice to manage the University’s information
- Provide a means to easily locate and analyze accurate and timely data
- Securely provide the complete range of data, analytical, and visualization capabilities
- Institute agile methods with appropriate governance to drive effective ways of working
To bridge the gaps between where we are and where we want to be, we are actively identifying initiatives to focus on establishing the roles, processes, policies and technologies needed to be successful, based on these key elements:
- Establish an end-to-end data and analytics architecture
- Treat information as a second language (ISL)
- Grow enterprise information management (EIM) & governance
- Design an effective training program for analytics skills and available data
- Define an integration strategy
