Rethinking the Implementation Approach
Certainly, there are numerous approaches for implementing
PeopleSoft® Campus Solutions. Some
institutions prefer implementations spanning several years, bringing up one
module at a time and maintaining interfaces to and from PeopleSoft®. Others may
take a more rapid implementation approach, bringing up all modules with the
minimal requirements in a compressed period of time, such as 12 months. The
number and type of resources utilized, both internally and externally, varies as
well, from large project teams decentralized across a university system, to
skeletal teams consisting of one or two people on a part-time basis.
All of these models have merit, and we have always taken
pride in providing value-based solutions that support and address the explicit
needs of each client. However, based on our past implementation experiences and
knowledge of the software, we have developed opinions on best practices for
implementing PeopleSoft® Campus
Solutions. Over the past six years, our team has dedicated itself to developing
and fine-tuning an implementation methodology specifically designed to address
the needs of institutions that are just beginning the implementation process.
We understand that selecting a qualified and experienced partner to assist you
in implementing PeopleSoft® Campus
Solutions is one of the most important and crucial decisions that you will face.
We also understand that implementation methodologies and approaches often fall
short of what they promise to deliver.
This is why we have worked hard to develop a process
that will provide you with the much needed opportunity to accurately evaluate
the merits of our consulting firm and methodologies prior to making a decision
to partner with us. Our industry leading development and delivery strategies
have been designed to allow you to do just that. If given the opportunity, we
will gladly design a fully operational Campus Solutions system specific
to your institution and business processes. We will then present this to your
implementation team and user community and demonstrate the capabilities of the
software as they relate specifically to your institution.
Academe Solutions’ appreciates
this opportunity to share our thoughts and ideas with you, and we look forward
to collaborating with your team to develop a project plan and implementation
approach that works best for your budget, timeframes and objectives. We firmly
believe that product knowledge is the key to success for any project. Our
commitment to higher education and understanding of the software gives you a
distinct advantage in identifying potential problems, implementing creative
solutions and eliminating obstacles before they are encountered. Our
breadth of knowledge provides a solid foundation that your administration,
faculty, staff and students can depend on to deliver a professional and
successful implementation.
