The benefits are highlighted below:
1) Workday will provide all our stakeholders with a dramatically improved technology experience. Most importantly it will improve our ability to deliver modern and efficient transactional services to our students. The built-in “Academic Progress” function is a game-changer!
Workday’s user interface and forms are much more user friendly, mobile responsive, modern, refreshing, so much simpler than previous experience, are just some of the benefits that our students, staff, and faculty will experience with the implementation of Workday.
2) Workday will allow us to address the changing information technology landscape, enhance the student experience, and streamline university business processes.
3) Workday will help reduce the care and feeding of the typical ERP environment normally handled by Mines IT Staff and move it over to Workday freeing up staff to focus on more high-value, high-touch services to our students, faculty, and staff. The reduction in time and energy to support servers, applications and databases will also allow Mines to focus on security, business process redesign and empowering users through self-service.
4) Workday will provide Mines with an opportunity to re-evaluate how data is managed and used. This will enable the University to establish a modern and scalable data model that will help us leverage our data in new ways.
5) Workday will help reduce the number of third-party systems, saving on operating and maintenance costs.
