Executive Summary Working collaboratively with all Florida State College at Jacksonville College Information Technology Services (CITS) providers, College governance committees, College technology stakeholders, and the College System of Florida (FCS) information technology (ITS) stakeholders, this 3-year Master Plan represents an innovative, robust, and achievable pathway for significant improvements in College technology infrastructure, applications, ERP, and services. Educating in a high-tech, globally competitive space is challenging, particularly with a multifarious curriculum and (Generation C) student body. Moreover, challenges with new metric-based funding models that rely on data driven decisions call for advancements in data collection, storage, and analysis. The use of Business Intelligence (BI) tools to provide real-time data analysis and subsequently longitudinal views of the trends, patterns, and behaviors in institutional data is paramount to the College’s ability to make informed decisions and thrive in the 21st century.
The need to interact and compete globally has now reached higher education. Extending the reach of our institution to create new opportunities for access to education, accomplish state and national goals for college completion rates, and build the image and brand of our College as a technology leader requires comprehensive planning with respect to information technologies. This plan accommodates such requirements through closer collaboration and interactions with the College community, buildup of technology infrastructure to support new, more current models of computing, advancement of data environments and capabilities, and new and expanded managed services in support of academic and administrative technology stakeholder needs. Additionally, over the next three years this plan transitions through three primary foci: reorganization, retooling, and re-envisioning.
6
Year One
Year-one focus in the plan involves restructuring. Restructuring includes how the College information technology is staffed; how it supports infrastructure, applications, ERP, and services; and how administrative and academic stakeholders achieve value, efficiency, and mobility in their computing experiences. Moreover, reorganization includes a cultural change in how the College technology community works together to achieve the College mission and vision. Through close, complete, and consistent collaboration and communication between IT professionals in centralized IT and the technology professionals not reporting into IT (i.e., campus techs and others), the technology vision and mission will successfully roll up to the College vision and mission. New operating principles and values guide a re-branded information technology organization to achieve new levels of technology innovation, socio-technical value, and service. Creation of a service catalog to define and set expectations for service levels, along with the Help Desk as a single point of contact (versus the current 5 help desks) for information technology services, represent critical elements of reorganization. The newly named and reorganized division, College Information Technology Services (CITS), communicates its message via its website at http://www.fscj.edu/CITS.
Year Two
Year-two focus in the plan involves retooling. Retooling includes design and construction of new and existing infrastructure in support of cloud computing; mobile computing; separation of development, test, and production networks; innovative pedagogy; advancement of data environments; and instantiation of a service management framework. Qualitative feedback, as part of the retooling effort, will be designed to more actively engage the end-user community and technology stakeholders with the future direction of College computing.
Retooling, in practice, also involves improvement in infrastructure
7
junctures where critical pathways (node nexuses) for voice, data, and video traffic intersect. Year-two of the plan also serves to redesign, relocate, and support a security network on which campus services and police can reliably and securely host applications. Finally, as part of retooling, implementation of a service management framework will bring into play cross-functional teams to build process and best practices for continuous improvement of information technology services.
Year Three
Year-three focus in the plan involves re-envisioning, or again envisioning what a fully capable, resourced, and collaborative College technology community can accomplish. Various College division visions for how we recruit and admit new students, reach new student markets, provide for converged models of course facilitation and learning, service students more efficiently, make data driven decisions, connect with graduates, and advance the College will be supported through available, reliable, secure, and scalable technology networks, systems, applications, and computing environments. In year-three of the plan, full implementation and availability of virtualized clients, mobile application, and WIFI computing using preferred devices and technologies, and networks in support of individual school mission and vision to advance face-to-face, online, and hybrid programs and research will be operational.
Intentionally, this plan is operationally and financially aggressive. This plan will serve as a collaborative document to guide technology implementations and to provide a roadmap for advancing the state of technology at the College. As noted previously, universities in the 21st century require modern and highly robust technology infrastructure and ecosystem to meet the increasing demands of online education, hybrid education, and paradigms of convergent classroom instruction. This College Information Technology Services 3-Year Master Plan involves five goals and 27 associated objectives.The plan objectives are described and detailed herein, and will serve
8
as a basis for CITS interim and annual reports to the College community.
Overview of the 3-‐Year Master Plan As noted, the College Information Technology Services 3-year Master Plan involves five goals organized into the following five categories: (i) Information Technology Governance, Communication, and Coordination; (ii) Information Technology Organization Development; (iii) Information Technology Portfolio Management; (iv) Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Infrastructure; and (v) Information Technology Services. IT Governance, Communication, and Coordination objectives involve establishment and maintenance of formal structures through which various College stakeholders can provide feedback, interact with the Chief Information Officer, and advise on stakeholder needs. Moreover, objectives related to this goal serve to involve College stakeholders in the design, construction, and advancement of technology implementations Collegewide. Information Technology Organization Development objectives create an opportunity to build a more informed and innovative technology community within the College. Information Technology Portfolio Management objectives are intended to bring improved financial planning and reporting to all technology implementations Collegewide. Information and Communication Technology
Infrastructure objectives serve to build technological capability and strength through re- engineered network facilities, advanced enterprise applications and data environments, and administrative and academic computing advancements. Finally, College Information Technology Services objectives create a more informed and supported College community, and modernize logical and physical technological environments.

Objective 3(b): Information Technology Portfolio Management
Objective
Implement and balance IT Portfolio to achieve alignment with College mission and strategic goals; Evaluate risk-return profiles and priorities in an on-going manner.
Objective Description
IT Portfolio Management (ITPM) involves the application of systematic management to large classes of assets managed by enterprise Information Technology (IT) capabilities. CITS organizes all Information Technology initiatives into two portfolios: Services and Projects. Each portfolio is composed of four asset classes: (i) Infrastructure, (ii) Transactional, (iii) Informational, and (iv) Strategic (competitive advantage via educational technologies). One primary opportunity in ITPM is to move the governance and view of IT from that of a cost center to one of institutional investment. The promise of ITPM includes the quantification of previously informal IT efforts, enabling measurement and objective evaluation of investment scenarios. ITPM is distinct from IT financial management in that it has an explicitly directive, strategic goal in determining what to continue investing in versus what to divest from. Other benefits of the CITS ITPM program include: (i) central oversight of budget, (ii) risk management, (iii) strategic alignment of IT investments with institutional mission and vision, (iv) demand, and investment management along with standardization of investment procedure, (v) rules, and (vi) strategic planning. This objective serves to implement ITPM as part of the CITS governance structure and to optimize the value of IT investment for the College.
Moreover, introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT) into a networked environment requires extensive
34
due diligence to meet engineering requirements for bandwidth, flow control, storage, security, quality of service, and other priority concerns. As a result, the connection of new hardware and software components into a production environment requires prior analysis and consideration regarding potential performance related issues. Upstream (system front-end) analysis along with downstream (system back- end) analysis provides a true engineering perspective on the additional load of new hardware and software components such that performance concerns can be avoided or mitigated. Each modification of space, new construction, or technology related project involves the potential to degrade network performance or insinuate downgraded performance into the specific component. This objective also involves formal, timely, and regular communications among facilities management and other technology stakeholders to ensure full value of technology hardware and software components is realized.

Objective 3(c): Technology Upgrades and Replenishment
Objective
Establish a College technology assessment, upgrade, and replenishment program that optimizes useful life of technology components.
36
Objective Description
Specific factors such as mean time between failure, useful life, technology obsolescence, new requirements, and level of use determine cycles and instances where technology upgrades and replenishments should occur. Moreover, as virtual desktop integration technology is introduced, replenishment cycles are impacted in positive financial ways. Technology upgrade and replenishment decisions need to occur in a more granular fashion, rather than as a “one size fits all.” Consideration of specific need for upgraded technology, replacement technology, or additional technology should work in concert at the departmental level or closest to the end-user. As a result, technology upgrade and replenishment decisions will be tuned to end-user requirements and needs, as well as available funding. As the College technology infrastructure grows, available funds for technology upgrades and replenishment will become stretched further than currently deployed and heuristics will be developed through this objective to establish life-cycle policy for capital obsolescence that optimizes the useful life of all technology components.

Glossary of Terms Business Analysis (BA) – The term Business Analysis refers to the formal practice of enabling change in an organizational context, by defining needs and recommending solutions that deliver value to stakeholders.
Business Continuity Planning (BCP) - Business Continuity Planning (also referred to as Continuity of Operations Planning or COOP) focuses on essential business functions. It is a collection of resources, actions, procedures, and information that is developed, tested, and held in readiness for use in the event of a major disruption of operations. BCPs help prepare the College units to maintain mission-critical operations after any emergency or disaster.
Business Intelligence (BI) – an umbrella term that refers to a variety of software applications used to analyze an organization’s raw data. BI as a discipline is made up of several related activities, including data mining, online analytical processing, querying and reporting.
Business Process Modeling and Notation (BPMN) – refers to a standard for business process modeling that provides a graphical notation for specifying business processes in a Business Process Diagram (BPD), based on a flowcharting technique very similar to activity diagrams from Unified Modeling Language (UML). The objective of BPMN is to support business process management, for both technical users and business users, by providing a notation that is intuitive to business users, yet able to represent complex process semantics.
Centralized Authentication Service (CAS) – refers to a Single-Sign-On protocol for the Web. Its purpose is to permit a user to access multiple applications while providing their credentials (such as userid and password) only once. CAS also allows Web applications to authenticate users without gaining access to a user's security credentials, such as a password. The term CAS also refers to a
52
software package that implements this protocol.
Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) - A Continuity of Operations Plan (also referred to as Business Continuity Planning or BCP) focuses on essential business functions. A COOP involves a collection of resources, actions, procedures, and information that are developed, tested, and held in readiness for use in the event of a major disruption of operations. COOPs help prepare the College units to maintain mission-critical operations after any emergency or disaster.
Disaster Recovery (DR) – refers to the process, policies, and procedures that are related to preparing for recovery or continuation of technology infrastructure, which are vital to an organization after a natural or human-induced disaster. Disaster recovery focuses on the IT or technology systems that support business functions, as opposed to business continuity, which involves planning for keeping all aspects of a business functioning in the midst of disruptive events.
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) – refers to a business process management concept that allows the College to use a system of integrated applications to manage its business and automate back office functions. ERP concepts evolve around central data-centric software, in the case of the College: Banner.
