Active Directory Migrations: December project updates

Campus Active Directory
The Active Directory Migrations team has been working diligently with departments that want to migrate into Campus Active Directory (CAD). Here are some recent updates and milestones, plus a look ahead at what’s on the horizon for the project.

Recent progress

  • The team wrapped up presentations with awarded vendors and are actively in cost estimate refinement sessions.
  • The team experienced a brief pause in pilot migrations given an issue found with one of the migration tools. Resolution is anticipated by the end of the year and pilot migrations to start again in the new year.
  • The project has been submitted for project approval by the Board of Regents. Review will be discussed at the Board of Regents meeting on February 8, 2024.

What’s ahead

  • Select and onboard a third-party vendor to expedite Active Directory migrations across campus.
  • Use the listening session findings and follow-up engagements to inform project action planning and identify migration sequencing and the high-level timeline.
