Project Evaluation Request

A Project Evaluation Request is the starting point for requesting ITS resources for new projects or ongoing operational activities. Depending on the nature of the work requested, there may be several levels of approval required in order to complete this request (for additional information, see our Project Governance Process webpage). As a best practice, if the nature of the request involves resources from other departments or divisions, please contact them in advance of submitting the request to ensure all stakeholders have been informed.

To get started, complete the Project Evaluation Request form. After reviewing your request, the PMO team will contact you to initiate the project intake process.

IT New Project


  • An IT New Project is a temporary effort aimed at creating something new to help grow and improve university systems, structures, or processes. Unlike ongoing operational tasks, projects have a defined start and end date, and are designed to meet specific university goals. Once those goals are met, the project is completed. Examples of new projects include launching a new application, adding software or hardware, or integrating a new module into an existing technology platform.
  • Please note: As part of the evaluation process, IT New Projects are subject to review and approval by the Executive Sponsors.

IT Ongoing Operations


  • Ongoing operations are the regular, repetitive activities performed at the university to maintain smooth operations and provide services. They are essential for the day-to-day functioning of the university and support business processes to keep everything running efficiently. Examples of ongoing operational activities include updating existing interfaces, upgrades, patching, building reports using an existing data warehouse model, or conducting a Business Process Review (BPR).
  • Please Note: As part of the evaluation process, IT Ongoing Operations are subject to approval.
