Enterprise Content Management System Project 

The University of Central Oklahoma has implemented a new enterprise content management system (ECMS).  Use of an ECMS facilitates collaboration within departments and across different departments on campus.  The ECMS will optimize document management and business processes, enabling us to reduce redundancy and automate menial tasks.  This will allow us to work more quickly and efficiently, increasing productivity. Staff will be freed up to spend time on work that really matters. The ECMS will also help us to reduce paper waste and bridge different software applications used across campus, enabling us to better manage and protect records, and provide business continuity.  Phase I of the implementation began Fall 2011 semester with Enrollment Management (Admissions, Registrar, Financial Aid), Purchasing and Employee Relations.   The Process Improvement team has been working with the ECMS Project managers and department team leaders to establish lean processes and prep each area for workflow creation in the ECMS. Project managers, administrators, Phase I department team leaders and trainers from the Training Resource Center (TRC) will receive intensive on-site training.  TRC trainers will then develop training for future department team leaders, in conjunction with the ECMS administrator, for implementation during Phase II and beyond.
