IT Governance
McGill University IT Services (ITS) serves McGill students, faculty, academic and administrative support staff, and alumni. Our seven units work together to provide comprehensive IT services as well as client care. For more detail on our organizational structure and services, consult We are IT Services.听
In order for us to deliver IT services, and in the spirit of creating transparency of the work we are doing for and with the McGill community, we have a number of processes, governance frameworks, policies, etc. that enable us to function as a service delivery organization. This page aims to provide a summary of these.
