Implementation

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems integrate all of an organization’s departments, divisions, lines of business, and geographical locations into a unified enterprise-wide information system.

Louisiana Tech University, working collaboratively with Southeastern Louisiana University and the University of New Orleans, has implemented Workday to provide human resource and finance support to the campus community.

This project modernizes the University’s business processes, data management, and information systems to create opportunities for effective and efficient teaching, research, and service.

Why Workday?

Empowering Louisiana Tech staff with new tools helps the University continue to grow and innovate in a sustainable environment, directing more resources to our core mission.

Reasons for change:

• Need for flexible, configurable systems
• Current, once leading, technologies are out of sync with industry, making it risky to rely on them
• Complex, siloed and outdated business processes impede administrative effectiveness and efficiency
• Increasingly difficult and expensive to integrate systems, add new business functionality and remain updated on best practices
• Need for secure, streamlined and easily accessible institutional data to support strategic decision-making
• Attracting and retaining a talented technical staff to update, maintain and repair our systems has become increasingly difficult
• Need for ready access to data and tools for more effective decision making
