The 2020 Spring Members Meeting was conducted as an online event with the CAUDIT Awards incorporated held across 4 days on a unique virtual platform chosen specifically to curate effective networking and dialogue.
The theme for this year's meeting was CONTAIN, SUSTAIN, GROW.
COVID-19 has forced CIOs everywhere to rapidly change our narrative and respond resourcefully to not only the current situation but to future needs as well. More than ever before, we must serve as technical leaders supporting our institutions and the sector to emerge from this crisis stronger than ever.
To do so, we must look to the areas of contain, sustain, and grow to guide our strategy.
CONTAIN
Are there vendor contracts to be renegotiated? Under-used systems to be decommissioned? What projects can we press pause, scale down, or stop in light of changing priorities?
SUSTAIN
Where do we focus our attention to make sure we can do this? Are there high-value projects to be fast-tracked? What do we need to maintain for compliance? How and on what do we partner to deliver sustainable operations and change.
GROW
What opportunities can we take advantage of now to reward us later? Are there new technologies such as automation, data analytics for better insights to explore? How else can we support face to face, blended learning, and online? How can we improve the feedback loop with our end-users? What internal processes, values, or improvements can we focus on to grow our foundations? Could AI permit us to scale more effectively and efficiently when required?
