implementation easier for everyone.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Greetings, all,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">I’m coming in a little late to the Alma discussions, and trying to come up to speed with all the information. As we at Peninsula consider whether or not we can move to Alma,
I hope you can help me fill in a few gaps in my understanding. Thanks in advance!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">First, I would assume that the Presidents, in unanimously endorsing the project, believe that it has the potential to benefit the whole system. Yet, since they authorized this
as an opt-in project, they must have had concerns about whether everyone is in a position to participate. As such, are there provisions for institutions that can’t join now, but wish to opt in at a later date?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">As a corollary, if institutions choose not to opt in for now, but currently utilize ORCA support, is there a continued support model available for them, ORCA or otherwise?
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">If colleges do join, under the proposed cohort model for Alma implementation, colleges that belong to the later cohorts will still need Voyager support until we go live with
Alma. Will the current ORCA contract be valid throughout the implementation period? If not, how will Voyager support occur?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Also, what provisions have been made for institutions that utilize Voyager for 3<sup>rd</sup> party purposes? For instance, we utilize SIP2 functionality to authenticate for
our computer/print management system. I know other colleges use SIP2 for 3M SelfCheck. How will this factor into a migration cost-and-support model?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Thanks so much!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
