Following the merger of Swansea Metropolitan University into the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) in 2013 there is an institution wide remit to unify and rationalise both business process workflow and the systems and infrastructure that support them.
A priority of the university is to create one unified Student Records System (SRS) from the two that currently exist at the Carmarthen/Lampeter campus and the Swansea campus, namely TRIBAL SITS:VISION and AGRESSO QLS (Unit4).
Both campuses have different business processes to achieve the same required outcomes and are reflective of the legacy processes and the software/system capabilities available at each campus. There are on-going projects to rationalise the student-centric business processes across campuses and the proposed new SRS should facilitate these processes.
KEY OBJECTIVES
The University’s key objectives for this project are as follows:
To cleanse and merge the existing data-sets.
To provide one centralised and unified student record repository.
To provide an integrated, scalable and technically sound software solution that facilitates the administrative processes defined below
To rationalise and define single ‘business unit’ student administrative processes across all campuses.
To provide an intuitive, process driven software solution to facilitate user experience and business productivity.
To provide one central student portal’ so students may view, maintain (where appropriate) and complete business process relating to their student and course records.
To rationalise, unify and retire (where applicable) the current interfaces to the SRS.
To provide a ‘data repository’ on top of the SRS to facilitate interface and reporting requirements.
To provide an accurate, real time and self-service reporting mechanism to facilitate statutory returns, business intelligence as well as ad-hoc requirements
