Enterprise Financial System (EFS) Project Update Grants Management User Network October 13, 2006 www.finsys.umn.edu
EFS Project Update • Objectives: • Status • Proposed policy changes • Next steps for project • Q & A
The Latest • Analyze Phase completed • Involved 100+ subject matter experts, teams & business process owners • Completed 50 conference room pilots • Reviewed 170 business processes • Determined the “fits” between requirements and PeopleSoft • Determined the “gaps” • Determined “to-be” business processes for each module
Fits & Gaps Summary • Remember guiding principle is to install PeopleSoft as “vanilla” as possible • For all modules: • Total requirements = 3,472 • Total “fits” = 2,843 • Total “gaps” = 629 • Requirements met = 82 percent
Phasing the Gaps • BPO’s, EFS Teams & Management joint effort • Currently underway • Critical for July 1, 2008 • Can wait until after go live • Commitment for a Phase 2
Grants, Projects & Contracts • Primarily used by SPA & SFR, departments will use the data entered into GPC • Integration of sponsored data into one system
Policy & Procedure Recommendations • Examples: • Facilities & Administrative processing • At what level we budget • Commitment Control • Cost Share tracking
Accounts Receivable & Billing • Integrated services model • Larger impact on non-sponsored • Current structure for sponsored • Formalization of SFR procedures into policies
Policy & Procedure Recommendations • Examples: • University wide policies for credit & collections • Central “lock box” • Depositing of Program Income • Automate Print & Mail Bills
Accounts Payable & Expenses Budgets Accounts Receivable & Billing Treasury & Endowments Asset Management Integrated Financial System General Ledger/Chart of Accounts Purchasing & eProcurement Grants, Projects & Contracts
Next Steps • Functional design • Technical design • Build • Test & User Acceptance Test • On track for July 2008 “go-live”
