9. Some highlights from NTAP Tech Surveys of 2008

10. Background Originally conceived of as a techie directory for the community Now more of a snapshot of where programs are with IT related stuff. Help see what IT choices peer programs made Very complex to do at regular intervals of time

11. How it was done Two extremely long surveys Admin survey was sent to administrators or directors IT survey was sent to via email lists like lstech for a techie in the program to complete. None of the questions were mandatory. 84 responses to admin survey and 72 responses to IT survey. Thank you!

12. NTAP Tech Surveys Overview Admin Survey Budget IT Priorities Website Tech Training Project Mgmt + Wiki Tech Staff Tech Policies + Plans Software IT Survey Servers Backup Network Hardware Training Communication Email Web Conferencing Anti Virus

13. LSC funded Admin Survey 67% IT Survey 68%

14. BUDGETS

15. No. of programs with dedicated IT budgets in relation to no. of programs in each budget category

16. IT Budget Hardware ranges from 1% to 50% Software ranges from 1% to 30% Training ranges from 0% to 6% Outside consulting/contracts 1% to 27.5% Communications 0.2% to 1%

17. Other observations Consistently and overwhelmingly, hardware and personnel make up the majority of the IT budget. Where the personnel budget % is low, it is usually made up in the category of Outside consulting/support contracts. Training is consistently the lowest portion of the IT budget and seems to trend with the personnel budget.

37. The Interactive Tech Report Quick access to the responses for the Tech and Admin Surveys Madhu was just talking about. Temporary home: ntapsurvey.lsntap.orgntapsurvey.lsntap.org Good tool to get a sense of tech adoption in the community.

38. The Interactive Tech Report What does it do? Access information about tech in other programs Viewable via search filters and sorting Upload or update information from your own organization Rate products, add new products to rate, and see the ratings of your peers Preserve confidentiality

39. The Interactive Tech Report Todays Demo Simple search, sorting and filters Individual records Product ratings How you can participate

40. The Interactive Tech Report Still in development: Exporting data Linking product pages to the survey records for all the products mentioned in the surveys Devising better browsing for the Product Review page. Matching the design to the upcoming new NTAP website
