“We want to capitalize on opportunities -- to uncover insights and turn them into actionable intelligence for enhancing value to students, faculty and the community.”
Business Need
- Provide access to trusted information across academic and administrative functions for actionable insights and fact based decision making in support of student retention, enrollment trends, financial performance and staffing
- Support regulatory requirements
- Reduce operating cost of labor intensive manual data acquisition
- Minimize risk
Challenges
- Departments required real-time or near real-time data access for operational reporting
- Time-consuming, manual cloud and on-prem data management processes took resources from more strategic activities and increased operating costs
- Inconsistent data quality and a lack of transparency reduced credibility of the analytics environment
- Insight discovery was interrupted by data spread across multiple ERP applications and spreadsheets

- Accelerated time to insight discovery by replacing manual integration with pre-built connectivity and friendly data management interfaces
- Introduced a variety of dashboards for actionable insight including: travel and expense, missing grades, general ledger, financial trends and enrollment
