The goal of the analysis project was to develop: 1) A categorized catalog of all purchased and custom-built software at the university; 2) A suite of recommendations on a category-by-category basis for possible changes to the purchase, hosting, management, and support of that software; 3) Recommendations for the delivery of custom application development as a service and associated organizational changes. Further EUA projects will follow.
