Stakeholders and Governance Structures for SCOPE

Successful implementation of SCOPE requires participation from all groups to accurately understand employee roles and stay informed through communications, meetings, updates, and shared feedback.

Your Input Matters

For a successful implementation of SCOPE, it is essential to involve various groups at different stages of the project. Due to the complexities in jobs and reporting structures that exist across the institution, it is necessary to understand and accurately describe the work being done by employees. For this reason, we are relying on the involvement of all groups to share communication, attend open forum meetings, check for website updates, read UM Today and the Red & Blue, and share feedback/updates with peers and colleagues.

Please see below the formal stakeholder groups that are set up for this important work.
