Service Catalog
The primary method of a DataCC/DM&A Community adoption is through the offering of services. If a service is offered, it then fosters the adoption of the Campus standards and utilization of the standard DM&A framework and toolsets. This results in overtime in the reduction of rogue data and reporting systems throughout campus and an overall reduction in IT expenditures.
Submit a Data Management & Analytics Request Form for any service requests.
