Work on maintenance / governance plan for IT department.
Maintenance: give what we've built or plan to build, what are likely failure modes and how to work around them?
-
Failure doesn't have to mean dangerous situations like shorting power-to-ground and blowing out circuit breakers, although it can.
-
Failure could be governance risk: what happens if one quarter, there are no students interested in continuing an SOS?
-
Failure could be documentation risk: what happens when no one remembers how a particular part or subsystem works?
