Re: Standard operations question

[Frank Barton <bartonf () HUSSON EDU>]

Jared, I think this falls under the "Trust, but verify" category. At the
end of the day, the business unit that engaged the services is responsible
for the account(s) and service(s), however, it would behoove the datacenter
operations team to periodically proactively check with the business unit in
question to make sure that it is still active on their end, and that it
didn't just drop off their radar.

Possibly to the point of having the account automatically expire, and
require a proactive "hey, please keep the account active for another
quarter/6-months/etc." on a regular basis.
