In the past, Researchers and Faculty submitted paper forms to acquire up to date grant information. Administrators and Staff, if available, could assist by accessing PeopleSoft and reports.

• Colleges followed separate processes and often involved a multi-step process to provide data.
• Grants had to email a checklist or email a confirmation to members outside of the systems.

Workday leverages a unified system which hosts all grants information. Researchers, faculty and appropriate administrative and staff members now have visibility into data.    

• Data is accurate, immediately available and accessible through reports and dashboards. 
• Reports and dashboards have drill down capabilities providing multiple layers of real-time data.
