Page1+ Consortium OCLS Service Proposal
Service Area: Page1+ Consortium - General Services & Support

Rationale
Describing the initial foundational services the OCLS will provide to support the Alma Consortium.

Facilitated collaboration through the sharing of service
Access Requirements:
In order to perform these services OCLS will need:
Admin access to participating college’s IZ Alma and Primo VE instance
Credentials or guest access to College SSO in support of their Primo VE instance
Dependencies:
Future Considerations:
Distribute and maintain letter templates

Proposed Funding Model

Service Activities
As the migration to Alma impacts OCLS services, OCLS would like to provide some guidance about what services will look like after implementation. Although things may shift as we move forward, the OCLS Activities table outlines the high-level activities that OCLS currently believes will be part of this service.
To provide some clarity about important activities that the colleges/third parties may need to undertake, we have provided those in the Out of Scope Activities table. These out of scope activities are not meant to be an exhaustive list of all activities for the colleges, but rather to identify activities that OCLS will not be undertaking on behalf of the colleges post Go Live.
