    Final Report to the University Community
    (University of Minnesota: Administrative Service and Productivity Task Forces & Steering Committee, 2006-08-07) O'Brien, Kathleen; Bock, Terry; Carrier, Carol; Cawley, Steve; Kiedrowski, Jay; Klatt, Gail; Morrison, Fred; Pfutzenreuter, Richard; Rinehart, Gerald; Thrane, Linda; Fox, Meredith
    The president has challenged the University to move beyond the commendable continuous improvement work that brought us this far, and move into an era of transformational change. In order to achieve this change, hundreds of University citizens have contributed over the past 18 months to the creation of a transformational action plan for administrative operations. Each of the administrative task forces will wrap up their important planning and prioritization work by the fall of 2006. This report is a reflection of what was accomplished by the task forces and steering committee as well as recommendations for future action.

    In order to achieve a premier administrative operation that is integrated, results-based, and nimble, the Steering Committee believes that a targeted focus is necessary in the following areas: people; organization/structure; information; and culture. Each of the seven administrative task forces has a role to play in facilitating success of one or more of these frameworks. The following sections describe each framework’s importance to the transformation and the Steering Committee’s recommendation for near-term, transformative projects that will help drive success in that area.
