Project Definition
A project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service, or result. A project differs from a service ticket in the following areas:
- A project usually takes more than 40 person-hours of work and coordination among multiple departments.
- A project is unique and has not been done in the past; it has a single combination of, resources, cost, schedule and objectives. A service ticket however is not unique and can be replicated in its description and solution.
- Service tickets tend to focus on current, immediate needs, while projects include future needs, significant enhancements or changes to a current system.
- A project has a well defined scope, while service tickets have reduced and specific objectives.
Most larger projects will be reviewed and prioritized by the Technical Advisory Committee. To submit a request for a new project, please use the IS&T Project Intake Form below.
