Web Content Management Task Force

5/06 - The committee charge reads as follows:

Recognizing that a content management system (CMS) will greatly benefit web content providers and the web coordinator in maintaining accurate and current web content, a Web Content Management Task Force is being immediately appointed and charged with:

1. Developing criteria for evaluation of content management solutions, including a quantifiable product comparison template. Such criteria would include single sign-on authentication functionality (a Fredonia Plan goal) and integration with extant database platforms (Banner, ANGEL, etc.) and web services;
    
   
2. Applying the criteria to DotNetNuke and no more than three additional content management solutions for which current research and reports exist, and;
    
   
3. Submission of final report and recommended solution of no more than ten pages in length to the Chair of the Information Technology Advisory Board for review by ITAB and the ITS Executive Board by August 31st.

For the purpose of this evaluation we are defining a peer institution as a publicly funded comprehensive college with a student population between approximately 4000 and 8000 students, using the Banner Student Records system and having an in-house Data Center.
