FAEDS 2016

In this seminar we will explore the procurement process focusing on some of the security related considerations that should be written into the RFP process as well as within Service Level Agreements and Memorandum’s of Understanding. During the morning we will talk about:

• How regulations and industry requirements regarding data security and privacy are changing the way contractual arrangements are documented 
• The need to set expectations for security and monitoring at the RFP stage
• The need for data related receptacle agreements
• How data ownership and custody should be declared and documented in a SLA or MOU
• Sources to aid organizations in building contractual documentation from EDUCAUSE and others

At the end of today’s session, you should have a better understanding of how to build security into contractual agreements and some of the items to look for to assure effectiveness of these agreements.

Note: This is a facilitated session on the procurement process. During the presentation, small teams will review a mock RFP for an LMS System, an Onboarding Due Care Review Checklist and a sample SLA & SLA Performance Checklist. As teams and as a group we will discuss the quality and shortcomings of these documents.
