</span></span></span><![endif]><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">The State Regents’ Council on Information Technology will lead an initiative to coordinate the purchase of common computer-related applications and technology
across the higher education system. Leveraging the purchasing power of several institutions allows OSRHE to procure IT materials and services at a lower cost, providing for an increased level of efficiencies, cost savings and an overall improved academic
experience. In addition, increased buying power will allow smaller institutions to invest in technologies they may have been previously unable to afford, ensuring all students, faculty and staff across our higher education system have access to the same technologies.
We understand fully that this cannot be realized instantaneously but instead will be successful only if taken on with long-term commitment and an attitude commensurate with the high standards that all Oklahoma higher education institutions embrace every day.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We hope this recommendation will be an opportunity to create system-wide cost savings and improve access to the best technologies for all of our institutions.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have comments or questions about recommendations to the taskforce, please let us know.<o:p></o:p></p>
