New EIS Governance Structure

John Hooper, Executive Director of Administrative Information Systems, CITC

The purpose of this EIS Program Governance Charter is to define the governance of the
Enterprise Information System (EIS) program for the University of North Texas System
(UNT System). The EIS program provides functionality that is used across major areas
of the institution and at all UNT System components. The EIS program represents not
only a significant investment of system resources but also a significant allocation of
resources and funds for maintenance and enhancement on an ongoing basis. The
resources committed to the program are not associated with one department or even one
vice president. They come from throughout the UNT System from all the institution’s
components; therefore, it is important to have a governance structure to manage the
program. Governance creates a foundation for enhanced awareness and collaboration,
increased efficiency, and more consistent delivery of the right services at the right time
with the right resources.
