The role of data-driven decision making, information visualization, and custom data reporting continues to become more central to the work of OVPUE units. OVPUE IT is working to make information more accessible and design data environments and reporting that lead to more efficient and effective processes across all units.
IT will empower unit staff to retrieve and analyze data related to regular business needs without requiring individual requests to be made for data from IT. The Data Services Lead will manage access to this data and assist with interpretations of the resources, as well as identification of changes in business needs and their impact on data provisioning.
Role-based dashboards will be provisioned for the presentation of data visualizations of data for decision-making purposes. All roles requiring data on a regular basis will be provisioned access to the service. The Data Services Lead will manage access to these dashboards.
IT will seek out opportunities to leverage predictive models and analysis techniques in support of decision-making.
IT will utilize extract-transform-load (ETL) processes to archive relevant local data, of broad appeal, in the IU Data Warehouse.
IT will pursue collaborations with Bloomington Assessment and Research (BAR) on data, reporting, decision support, and information visualization projects in the service of OVPUE and unit business needs.
