4 Users across 71 academic units

5 Project Team Project Champion – Academic Leadership Council (ALC) Executive [John Applegate, Lauren Robel, Nasser Paydar]. Committed to the success of the implementation and will ensure that the project team has the time, resources and buy-in they needed. Project Manager – [Anne Massey, UAA].

Administrator [Group Lead, Akash Shah, UAA]. Manages day-to-day tasks associated with implementing Activity Insight, such as responding to inquiries and submitting work requests to DM. Note: DM only accepts work requests from this administrator (university level) group. Lead Trainer [Akash Shah, Functional Lead]/IUB. Responsible for training others on how to use the system, including conducting in-person sessions and creating documentation. Note: Each campus needs to identify a ‘local lead trainer’. Communication Coordinator [Anne Massey, UAA]. Ensures information about the use of Activity Insight, including goals, deadlines and training, is communicated effectively to project team, academic administration, governance bodies, and ultimately faculty. Note: VPFAA and EVCAAs will serve as campus points-of-contact and play this role ‘locally’. Technical representative [UITS – Interim Lora Headdy-Fox]. Focus on the technical aspects of implementation. Areas of focus are web services, authentication, securing data from source systems and manipulating source data for entry in Activity Insight. Faculty working ‘pilot’ team. [Campus reps]. Focus on usability of standard views for faculty data entry and views/reports for academic administrators. [Massey lead/coordinate efforts]. [1 st Quarter ‘16] Pilot Units [TBE – phased implementation]. These units will deploy Activity Insight, providing feedback to the project team to ensure that the Activity Insight configuration effectively facilitate data entry and reporting needs. [2 nd Quarter ‘16] Unit Reps [TBE]. These individuals will communicate the needs of their units. Note: Each campus will determine “local” management structure. Customization requests should work their way (up) through this structure for approval and onto UAA Administrator Group. [by 4 th Quarter ’16; ongoing].

9 EVCAAs/VPFAA Role Point-of-Contact for Project Team Manage communications for your campus Identify – Representative for Faculty Working Team (by 15 Dec ‘15) – Campus level trainer (by 15 Jan ‘16) Being consideration of ‘how to’ … – manage communications w/your units – implement training for your campus – provide data entry support (as desired) – manage ‘customization’ requests from your units (for ‘17)

10 Target - Use Scenario #1 Annual Review January 2017 When AI released to units, faculty should focus on entry of 2016 data – Prepopulated/importing of research publications (minimize manual entry) [this would include pre-2016 data] – IU internal data (e.g., HRMS, courses, grants etc.) prepopulated – Local unit decision regarding data entry support (staff, part-time etc.); permissions required FAR will be available through January 2017
