Section 5.7.4 Outsourcing / Contracting Out of Content Preparation
Any organisation unit, resource
area, or individual Content Custodian seeking to outsource or contract out the
preparation of Content, shall liaise, in the first instance, with staff
responsible for the administration of MurdochNet. The aim of such liaison shall
be to ensure that staff in the organisation unit or resource area who are
seeking to outsource or contract out, fulfil the requirements of this policy
and its associated guidelines for Content preparation.
Any organisation unit, resource area, or individual Content
Custodian that does outsource or contract out the preparation of Content, shall
ensure that:
(1) the
above requirements for responsibility for Content are met
(2) their
unit or resource area has access to the appropriate resources (ie. staff and
skills) for the ongoing maintenance of that Content.
Any Content deemed to be Non-Compliant (ie. to not adhere to
recommended standards, to not follow approved guidelines, or to have not been
prepared using the Murdoch Conventions for Content Preparation), shall,
under the authority of the Director, Office of Information Technology Services,
be either removed, or have access to it blocked until such time as it is
modified to comply with this Policy and its associated guidelines.
