As product strategists, we often receive
the question, "What's
the value of implementing your PeopleSoft software?" Prospective customers and existing customers alike are compelled to justify
the cost of new tools, business process changes, and
the business impact associated with adopting
the new tools.
In response to this question, we have been working with many of our customers and implementation partners during
the past year to obtain metrics that demonstrate
the value obtained from an investment in PeopleSoft applications.
The great news is that as a result of our quest to identify value achieved, many of our customers began to monitor their businesses differently and more aggressively than in
the past, and a number of them informed us that they have some
great achievements to share.
For this month, I'll start by pointing out that we have collaborated with one of our implementation partners, Huron Consulting Group, Inc., to articulate
the levers for extracting value from implementing
the PeopleSoft Grants solution. Typically, education and research institutions, healthcare organizations, and non-profit organizations are
the types of enterprises that seek to facilitate and automate research administration business processes with
the PeopleSoft Grants solution. If you are interested in understanding
the ways in which you can look for value from an implementation, please consider registering for
the webcast scheduled for Friday, December 14th at 1pm Central Time in which you'll get to see and hear from our team, Huron Consulting, and one of our leading customers.
In
the months ahead, we'll plan to post more information about
the value customers have measured and reported to us from their implementations and upgrades.
If you have a
great story about return on investment and want to share it, please contact either
[email protected] or
[email protected]. We'd love to hear from you.
