What Is A Project?
Maybe your area is considering installing new equipment that needs to operate on our network. Maybe you want to implement a new software system--including software as a service ("SaaS") or cloud services. Maybe you plan to make significant changes in how you use an existing resource, such as implementing a new module, or performing a major upgrade that brings about significant change.

Any of these endeavors can be called a project, which should be considered as distinct from daily operational activities. A project has a specific objective or set of objectives that, when accomplished, mark its completion. Projects typically require dedicated time and include working with a group of individuals. They can be internal to your college, school, or department but often involve cross-functional teams as well as external vendors.

Some of the projects are behind the scenes such as upgrading the technology infrastructure. Regardless of your technological need, iTech wants to partner with you to support your goals and to achieving the best possible success.
