The University of Windsor undertook a multi-year journey to modernize its business processes and replace several core systems with an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, known as UWinsite. UWinsite went live in 2018.
The transformation focused on replacing the legacy Student Information System (SIS) and previous Financial Information System (FIS), as these systems no longer met the University’s needs.
UWinsite introduced a Student Engagement System to enable more effective communication with prospective students. Self-Service functionalities were also introduced, enabling faculty, staff and students to access the information and assistance they need when they need it.
UWinsite is the technological foundation that supports faculty and staff in providing exceptional experiences for students and excellent service to all of the University’s key communities.
Benefits of the UWinsite System
- Improved student experience and satisfaction
- Increased self-service functionality for students, faculty and staff
- Improved routine workflows and reduced manual processes
- Redirection of Faculty and Staff time to more value-added activities
- Improved data reporting and analytics
