Kuali Research Implementation Services

Best-in-class implementation doesn’t happen by accident. The Kuali Research Customer Success team understands that the desired end state for our customers is not only a fully implemented electronic research suite, but a system that has been adopted and accepted by end users and meets key business goals and drivers for implementation in a way that can be demonstrated and measured. Your institution will benefit from Kuali’s tried-and-true implementation process that has a proven track record at a wide variety of universities and research institutes.

‍

Kuali will:

• Partner with you to fully understand your key business goals and drivers, systems and business processes, and institutional culture.
• Conduct a detailed business process analysis, a careful review of your legacy data, and an investigation of all desired integration points.
• Use this understanding to configure and test the system to meet your needs.
• Migrate legacy data into Kuali and reconcile for completeness and accuracy.
• Provide consulting and guidance to assist you with the design and development of required integrations.
• Develop and deliver a comprehensive training program that meets a variety of learning styles and needs.
• Plan and execute a smooth go-live and transition from legacy systems to Kuali.
• Provide implementation management services to ensure that all tasks are completed according to the approved project timeline.

Our implementation services typically include project management support, business process analysis and design, guidance on system use and best practices, system configuration support, assistance in development of testing plans and testing, assistance in development of training material and delivery of Train-the-Trainer training, go-live planning and support, immediate post go-live support, and transition to routine operational support. Our implementation management approach includes weekly status update meetings with key customer stakeholders, providing an opportunity for all parties to track progress of deliverables and milestones, discuss concerns, and resolve issues.
