Partnership Information

 

KPME Partners are the cornerstone of the KPME effort.  By participating in KPME, a Partner has a voice in the direction of the KPME project through Board representation and/or through representation on Functional Council which directs the functionality of the final product.  A KPME Partnership also provides a technical and functional knowledgebase about the KPME software for the partner institution, because of detailed participation during design and development. KPME Partners can be institutions of higher education or commercial partners.  Details about the types of partnerships are outlined below:

 

Full Partner

Full partnership enables an institution to have a seat on the Board of Directors and a seat on the Functional Council.

Full partners provide to the project:

 

  • At least 2 full-time developers or the equivalent for the duration of the MOU. Cash may be substituted for committed resources.
  • An annual cash contribution as project dues for the duration of the MOU. 

 

Contributing Partner

 

Contributing partnership enables an institution to have a seat on the Functional Council.

Contributing partners provide to the project:

 

  • At least 1 full-time developer or the equivalent for the duration of the MOU. Cash may be substituted for committed resources.
  • An annual cash contribution as project dues for the duration of the MOU.
