The OVPR IT Support team provides a hybrid service model to OVPR, FRDO, and across UNM’s category III research centers and institutes—offering full Tier 1 through Tier 4 support whenever their local IT staff are unavailable, while consistently providing Tier 3 and Tier 4 advanced support at all times.
For category III centers and institutes without dedicated IT staff, we deliver comprehensive Tier 1 through Tier 4 services directly.
