About IT Governance

IT Governance is the structure and framework around the planning for IT services. By developing and using these frameworks built on best practices, KU will ensure that appropriate reviews are performed on IT solutions before they are purchased or implemented.

These reviews will be done with an eye toward alignment with KU Strategy, and supporting the core missions of the University of Kansas. The structure also allows for security reviews, and feasibility reviews, so that any IT solutions implemented are secure, and are in the best interest of KU.

Service Experience Councils provide the KU campus an opportunity to provide recommendations on the core services provided by IT. These councils meet regularly throughout the year to develop long-range roadmaps for the services, and complete objectives laid out by the CIO.
