Purpose [top]

To provide for an order of succession for the Associate Vice President for Information Technology Services (ITS), and other ITS leadership positions in his absence.

Background [top]

Many business processes require the approval or other input of the Associate Vice President for ITS/CIO. In the absence of the AVP, this Business Practice describes the order of succession for ITS. Additionally, business continuity requires that a clear leader be designated for each ITS group in the absence of their normal leadership.
