DESIGN SESSIONS
Between April-May 2021, the Knight Vision Workday team conducted design sessions with representatives from workstreams across campus to assess the current UCF business operations and determine whether there is a Workday Functional Area to support the current high-level operations.
During these sessions, input about the current state of business processes, pain points and opportunities for improvement was gathered. As the implementation of the Workday system moves forward, the Knight Vision program team will continue to evaluate how things are done, why they’re done and where they are done currently at the university.
CUSTOMER PREVIEW SESSIONS
Knight Vision program team worked closely with a select group of representatives from the UCF Steering Committee, Business Owners Council, Campus Community Advisory Group, Direct Support Organizations and others to ensure that the planned Workday design meets the business and operational needs of colleges and departments across UCF.
