Transcript UCSF IT Consolidation Overview

UCSF IT
Consolidation
Overview
Presenter: Joe Bengfort
Background / Context
• Market and financial pressures obviate the need for UCSF to act
more and more as one institution.
• UCSF IT needs are rapidly evolving and escalating, e.g.:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Data access
Analytics
Integration of systems and data across missions
Mobility (communications; data; applications)
Secure / simple movement of large amounts of data
High perform. computing / high speed networks / high capacity storage
• Recent IT leadership changes offer an opportunity to revisit our
structure to address these needs.
A unique opportunity to reshape our investment in IT around the
evolving needs of the UCSF missions.
2
Guiding Principles for IT Consolidation
• Must enable, not dilute, focus on our mission
(Discovery, Teaching, Patient Care).
• Increase collaboration and cooperation across
the enterprise.
• Meet the growing demand for IT services in the
most productive and cost effective manner.
• Consider cultural differences and whether a
consolidated IT organization can accommodate.
3
Targeted Benefits
• Greater collaboration and sharing of data across the UCSF Enterprise.
• Continuity of service for key constituents (e.g. faculty, students).
• Bend the cost curve of IT spending… i.e. lower the projected growth
rate of IT spending.
• Better position UCSF to meet the increasing demand for IT, data and
analytical services across the enterprise.
• Enable highly specialized and innovative departments to remain
nimble while improving access to centralized IT services and data.
4
Decision Overview
• Consolidate certain aspects of IT at UCSF.
• Establish a single Chief Information Officer position.
• Post CIO position internally and make appointment by
end of August 2013.
• Transition to this model over the next 6 months.

Common Themes: Leadership Interviews
•
Leaders are generally supportive of the concept of IT consolidation.
•
Strongest support for consolidation of:
•
•
•
•
•
Specialized IT functions need to stay within departments:
•
•
Application support is where most of the specialized needs exist.
Take a measured pace:
•
•
•
•
Infrastructure (network, computing, storage, data centers)
IT Security
Customer services (help desk, desktop support)
Enterprise applications (e.g. AP, payroll, time tracking, etc…)
Don’t take a big-bang approach; chose evolution versus revolution.
Finish what you started (e.g. OE for Field Services) / don’t over-reach too soon.
Workflow changes must accompany consolidation of departmental IT.
Must address skill gaps in high demand areas:
•
•
•
•
•
Data warehousing / Analytics support
Mobility: Apps, devices, workflow enhancement, patient monitoring
Secure but simple movement of large amounts of data
High Performance Computing
Image management and accessibility.
