Abstract
Empowering People: Indiana University’s Strategic Plan for Information Technology, was developed in response to a charge by IU President Michael A. McRobbie “...to develop the pervasive use of IT to help build excellence in education and research in all disciplines, in administration, in IU’s engagement in the life of the state, across all campuses, and in collaboration with IU’s key partners such as Clarian Health and institutions of higher education.” The plan follows the 1998 IT Strategic Plan style and anticipates a five-year implementation horizon, but its work will proceed through continuous, incremental improvement wherever feasible. Its 15 major recommendations set direction and aspirational outcomes for the university. Seventy-two supporting action items mobilize implementation. Over 140 IU community members from all campuses — students, faculty, and staff — and alumni contributed to developing the plan. It includes input from essential partners such as Clarian Health, the Ivy Tech Community College of Indiana, and campus communities. It has been presented to 85 groups across all campuses and received over 150 emailed comments on its preliminary draft. Professor Frank Acito of the Kelley School of Business directed the development of the plan as Chairman of the University Information Technology Committee and its members.
