The announcement was made in conjunction with two higher education trade shows at which CIBER is participating: American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO) in Orlando, March 24 - 27, and the Ohio Higher Education Computing Council (OHECC) at Ohio University, March 26 - 28.
For the project, CIBER will implement several PeopleSoft Enterprise applications to support student administration, finance, human resources, customer relationship management (CRM), and business intelligence and analytics. Several software features support self-service functionality. CIBER will also implement a Web portal for the university.
In addition to implementation services, CIBER will provide overall project management, data conversion, and integration services.
"We chose CIBER over five other vendors because of CIBER's reputation, experience in the higher education community, and hands-on approach," said Don Davis, Chief Information Officer at Azusa Pacific University. "We were really looking for that kind of partnership for this significant project. This project also strengthens the relationship between APU community members and facilitates the management and sharing of information to serve our students with excellence."
"Azusa Pacific University's strategic goals include employing management systems that advance the university's mission and vision. APU provides the highest quality faith-based education for tomorrow's leaders," said Mike Dillon, Senior Vice President of CIBER's Higher Education Practice. "Oracle's PeopleSoft Enterprise solution we are implementing will help APU deliver on those goals, while meeting its significant growth demands. The systems will simplify business processes for staff, streamline transactions for students, tighten communications within and outside of the campus community, and help the university excel in the next era of higher education."
