Guiding Principles of ITSC
- Leverage ITSC expertise in UI Modernization projects across the nation;
- Serve as a conduit between state and consortium projects to ensure lessons learned and methodologies are effectively shared;
- Create project management standards and procedures;
- Create application development standards and recommended architectures for states to model;
- Promote where applicable the use of open source design and development principles and tools for interoperability amongst states and to reduce the TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of UI IT systems;
- Encourage states to build non proprietary systems, subsystems, and components, and make these systems, subsystems, and components available to all states through the ITSC e-Library;
- Develop, distribute, and support UI components/modules, products or model projects for cost-effective multi-state use.
