Technology Review

Tufts Technology Services (TTS) encourages schools and divisions to engage our team in a technology review for all new technology projects or services or those undergoing significant changes or upgrades.

Areas of Review

Reviews include a thorough analysis of the following items:

• Security
• Accessibility
• Solution architecture
• Contractual terms

When to Request Review

You should request a technology review for the following scenarios:

• Considering making a purchase to address a business need that requires software or a cloud service
• Engaging consulting or hosting services for websites or mobile applications
• Purchasing a solution that requires integration with other Tufts’ systems or will require Tufts’ data to be pre-loaded and/or routinely updated
• Purchasing software or systems that may contain sensitive information, including student data, sensitive personal information (SPI), regulated data, or other sensitive institutional data
