The mission of this project is to provide timely, relevant, accurate data to facilitate better decision making. To accomplish this are taking a fresh look at how we manage and consume information today, while looking towards the future by embracing change and providing information in a way that supports our goals. The scope of this work encompasses all facets of how we deliver, work with, and support information for decision-making at IU, from technical architecture to cultural support, from tool sets to development processes.
Since this is not solely an IT project, our mission is also to foster collaboration and cultural change by partnering with our end users in support of improved decision making. Since DSI is about using data to make more informed decisions, we will be using IT resources as a catalyst for change. However, success will be measured not by IT deliverables, but by better decisions made.
