Service Portfolio

Grouped services

IT Service recognises that there are inter-relations between services and that it often makes sense for a number of related services to be offered as a single entity. 
An obvious example of this is the group of services that are necessary to provide a basic working environment on a desktop computer.

Accordingly, the following Grouped Services are available and whilst uptake of these is generally by a College, School or Subject, they can be made available to individuals, but in the first instance enquiries should be made via local IT staff in your College or School.

• CSCE
• Email, diary and collaboration
