The University awarded a contract for crisis management consulting services.
This emergency/quick purchase was required due to a situation in which
immediate action was needed to prevent any disruption in University services.
Conditions are rapidly unfolding in the form of extreme volume of local, regional, national and likely international media interest and inquiries that must be responded to by existing limited staffing. Interest and inquiries are expected to increase significantly in a short time and persist for a substantial period. The university needs early assistance and media support expertise immediately.
