Common Good Services Philosophy
The Common Good Services described here are the information technology solutions, networks, systems, storage, security, identity access management, and computing resources that are beneficial and critical for teaching, research, service, and administration. These services are provided for all members of the Oakland University community. There is a general expectation that these critical services are always on and available. These resources are not customized or specialized for a department, but are the basic infrastructure services that research university constituents and communities expect to be available for the entire community. Providing these resources and services with high quality and reliability is our highest priority. Oakland University is committed to enabling equally effective access to public information through information technologies, web pages, web-based applications, databases, services, and resources. Oakland University has adopted widely accepted best practices, accessibility standards, and accessibility guidelines to enable compliance with federal laws and regulations. Accessibility and compliance with Section 508 of the Americans with Disabilities Act are core components of Common Good Services. Other services may be provided as "Good Will Services". Good Will Services are not guaranteed. Please review all items under Common Good Services on the left menu bar.University Technology Services Updates

Change and Architecture Management is a process for handling changes so that information technology changes are efficient, organized, and minimally disruptive to our community and our existing technology infrastructure. UTS is committed to completing changes and other maintenance in an established routine maintenance window. Please note regular maintenance windows, which are coordinated around the undergraduate and graduate calendars posted by the Office of the Registrar:
- During a regular university semester, the maintenance window is between midnight and 8 A.M. on Wednesday mornings.
- Between semesters starting the day after grades are due and ending the day before classes begin, additional regular maintenance windows are scheduled between midnight and 8 A.M on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings.
- During winter recess week, additional regular maintenance windows are scheduled between midnight and 8 A.M on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings.
Periodic service disruptions may occur during regular maintenance periods; please wait until 8 A.M. to report issues.
