The Design Process Differences & Similarities • The biggest difference is the amount of funding that each place of education receives. • both receive money from the state, • higher education is capable of higher returns • budgets for k12 much lower • Both have mixed equipment PCs/Macs • ~350 @ ATC • ~500 @ Bloomer • Full and part time worker at both • ACT: two full time technicians, 2 full time, 3 Professors and 4-5 Students • K12: Threetechnicians, onlyone in full time Graduate Project
The Design Process Differences & Similarities • Differences in the quality of equipment • ACT has a superior upgrade path • Bloomer needs to use all of it’s equipment so long as it’s functioning • Qualifications of their technicians • Stout can hire the best and the brightest and pay them accordingly, full time. • Bloomer has to go with what they can afford. Stout has an extensive process whereas Bloomer is pretty much cut and dry job-hiring process. • Whenexternalhelpisnecessary • ACT can grab help from another it-departments in stout instead of hiring external contractors • Bloomer on the other hand has to hire people from other companies like CESA 10 or Corporate Technologies.
