In the spring of 2023, the University System of New Hampshire (USNH) initiated a significant project to overhaul the existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. This comprehensive system is crucial for managing a wide array of institutional services and catering to the needs of faculty, staff, and students.
The ambitious project involved transitioning from the legacy systems, including Banner Human Resources/Finance, PeopleAdmin, UKG, and several other tools, to the more modern and efficient Workday platform. Workday is renowned for its applications encompassing Human Resources, Finance, Payroll, and Student Information Systems. It has been selected as the ERP platform for the University System of New Hampshire, promising to replace various current systems.
Workday stands out for its accessibility, speed, intuitiveness, consistency, and accuracy. The implementation of Workday is set to bring about several improvements, such as:
- Enhancing data accuracy
- Eliminating redundant processes
- Ensuring uniform data access across all USNH campuses
Over the past year, ET&S has concentrated on integrating Workday's HR and Finance components with other discovery activities that commenced in September 2023. The anticipated go-live date for Workday HR and Finance is January 2025, with preparatory data entry work beginning in December.
