OAK (Optimization | Analytics | Knowledge) is a cross-functional team of institutional representatives that helps manage the priorities of technology projects that may broadly impact the 冈本视频 community and ITS resources. Through open dialogue we strive to:

  • Identify areas where we can implement common solutions, thereby minimizing the proliferation of software solutions across campus,
  • Act as an experienced sounding board and advisory group on large technology projects to help them be more effective and efficient, and
  • Prioritize projects so that financial, ITS resources, and human capital needs are used for the most strategically important projects for 冈本视频
