New roles – new structures? How collaboration and multi sourcing affects central IT

8 pagesPublished: January 13, 2025

Abstract

The way to provide IT services in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) is undergoing transformation. In addition to locally provided services, we now see emerging new structures involving collaborative services, community cloud and commercial cloud offerings. This development cannot leave local IT unaffected. To the contrary, local IT has to develop to keep its role as a valuable provider to the local users in research, teaching, and administration. In our work, we developed structures to enable local IT to cope with these changes in demands and boundary conditions.

Keyphrases: cloud, service collaboration, sourcing
