In support of a complex organization with unique business practices, we have developed several online business processes and workflows that help to improve workflow and communications across the various business units. Examples of this are the MyKE:Admin modules for our registration staff, an advising system, financial tracking systems, and soon to come employee onboarding.

Through the development and use of ETL tools and data integration services, we offer enterprise system integration to help with systems such as Connect Carolina, Canvas and 2U. 

Offering in-house web development for operational systems, we specialize in online business processes and custom responsive design.

UNC Kenan-Flagler’s IT Department has identified the following maintenance window to be used for upgrades, testing, patch application, and other potential downtime for all computer systems hosted at UNC Kenan-Flagler

• Evenings: 10:30 p.m. – 6:00 a.m.

Although we do not anticipate the need to use the maintenance window daily and will make every effort to maximize up-time, UNC Kenan-Flagler IT occasionally needs a designated time period to perform maintenance.  Maintenance windows typically will be one hour or less in duration.  If the outage will last more than one hour, we will communicate that information 48 hours in advance, unless the situation does not allow such notification.   We feel it necessary to publish this potential window to give as much advanced notice to our customers of possible downtime. Work done during this window will not come with notification from the IT Service Desk.  While any emergency work done outside the maintenance window is rare, it does occur.  In the case of emergency maintenance, as much advanced warning as possible will be given.

Laptop and Desktop Maintenance

Regularly scheduled patches from Microsoft are issued the second Tuesday of each month and there are updates from other software companies as well that we will install.  The UNC Kenan-Flagler IT Department will review the patches and deploy them to the school accordingly. It is critical that when you receive an update, that you install it and complete the installation which usually requires a computer reboot.  Leaving your computer at a login prompt nightly will avoid loss of any unsaved data that might occur from a reboot. If you have questions about an update you received, please contact the IT Service Desk at itservicedesk@kenan-flagler.unc.edu.All Microsoft Windows computers purchased with school funds regardless of funding source will be placed on the Business domain. This allows the IT Department to manage software on the computers including critical security patches.These computers will also have asset inventory software (SCCM and SolarWinds) and anti-malware installed such as System Center Endpoint Protection (SCEP).It is against school policy to tamper with either of these programs.  To remove or disable these programs may result in removal of the equipment from the UNC Kenan-Flagler network.
