About Us

The UH Business Process Council was convened in Fall 2003 with representation from system-wide constituencies in central offices and user communities to recommend improvements in UH business processes across all areas of the university system. In September 2013, the Council was tasked to assist in the review and fulfillment of a number of recommendations made by the BOR Advisory Task Group, including procurement, reporting, and travel.
