Like many universities, the University of Alabama in Huntsville relied on paper forms and manual approvals to support critical campus processes. Routine requests moved slowly, required significant administrative effort, and often introduced delays and errors. While individual departments sought ways to improve their own operations, the university saw an opportunity to modernize processes across the institution instead of solving problems one office at a time.
The university adopted the Kuali Platform to replace manual, paper-based processes with connected digital workflows. What began with Research and Academic Affairs quickly expanded across campus as more departments recognized the value of a shared platform. Today, Kuali supports workflows across student services, finance and administration, academic affairs, research administration, and even operational units like parking. Rather than implementing separate software for each department, the university has created a common platform that empowers teams to modernize their own processes while maintaining consistency across the institution.
By standardizing on the Kuali Platform, the University of Alabama in Huntsville has accelerated digital transformation while improving the experience for students, faculty, staff, and administrators.
Rather than solving one departmental challenge at a time, the University of Alabama in Huntsville continues to expand the Kuali Platform across campus. As new opportunities for automation emerge, additional departments can build on the same technology foundation, creating a more connected institution while avoiding fragmented systems and duplicate solutions.
