Technical Design Phase (2018)

The Technical Design phase was completed in summer 2018, identifying a new product suite based on the Samvera framework. Participants reviewed the requirements, user profiles, and policies identified in the Discovery Phase and outlined a set of integrated products utilizing the Samvera digital repository framework.
