Activity Committees
Activity committees include individuals from across the campus who possess expertise, knowledge, skills and experience relevant and applicable to the tasks that make up the overall CMS initiative. Committees focus their talents and resources on specific areas of need, and facilitate the achievement of project milestones and ensure the timely execution of the overall project plan.
Activity committee members are required to attend group meetings, and may volunteer, be invited to participate by members of the project team, or can be nominated by anyone involved or interested in the initiative.
Requirements and Evaluation committee
The Requirements and Evaluation committee will be responsible for guiding the identification and prioritization of the campus's requirements, defining key features and functions, identifying evaluation criteria, developing use cases, evaluating CMS options, and documenting the capabilities and fit of various software-based solutions. The committee will consider all aspects of the campus's needs and constraints, including technical, content and workflow, accessibility, interface, impact on staff workload, and other requirements. The committee will develop a formal functional and technical requirements document for use in subsequent product and vendor identification and evaluation activities. Members will also participate in the analysis and evaluation of potential options and the selection of a content management solution for the campus.
Implementation Committee
The implementation committee will be responsible for developing and implementing a plan to guide the integration and deployment of the selected Web Content Management solution. The committee will identify needs and bring together campus stakeholders, experts and resources critical to the successful implementation of the selected Web Content Management solution on campus. The committee will plan and oversee the pilot program, establish criteria for success, and will conduct tests and other evaluations to ensure the readiness of the solution for broad acceptance and use by the campus community.
