SIS Implementation Project Update

Through August, the Student Information System Implementation Project Team, located on the Victory Parkway Campus, will partner with student services experts across the university to lead the next phase of the implementation process known as “Fit/Gap.”

The Fit/Gap allows the university to carefully review current work processes — in areas such as registration, bursar and financial aid — to identify how the new system, powered by Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, meets (a fit) or doesn’t meet (a gap) the university’s current business processes.

Data gathered during Fit/Gap will allow the university to make educated, data-driven decisions about how best to configure the new system and associated business practices.

“The SIS Implementation Project Team is committed to delivering an efficient, cost-effective and student-focused system,” said Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Beverly Davenport. “As the backbone to our university’s operations, this new system will play a pivotal role in the university’s Third Century of academic and research excellence.”

The SIS Implementation Project officially launched in April. Since then, the project team has assembled the

Governance Structure

, drafted the

Project Charter

, and completed necessary project team training.
