Enterprise Resource Planning
The Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) division is responsible for the ConnectCarolina project, which will provide the University community with a fully integrated administrative infrastructure that supports efficient and effective business processes related to student services, human resources, payroll and finance.
The student services implementation will take place first, with a phased launch schedule beginning in summer 2009:
- Admissions for undergraduates: August 2009
- Student Records (course catalog): October 2009
- Financial Aid, Student Records (enrollment for fall 2010): February 2010
- Student Financials (cashier’s office): June 2010
- Admissions for Graduate School: July 2010
- Student Records (transcripts produced from PeopleSoft): October 2010
While implementation dates for human resources, payroll and finance have not yet been determined, planning for the next stages has begun.
Once implementation is complete, the ConnectCarolina project will:
- Improve the experience of all those who work and learn at the University with a single centralized resource.
- Allow increased focus on mission-critical activities by establishing a common, sustainable platform.
- Provide secure data sources and efficient reporting tools that encourage strategic planning and support regulatory compliance.
- Support the development of standardized processes and shared results across campus units.
