Higher Education Software Leader`s Vision for Managing a School`s ''Business'' to Help Shape Future Growth of the Industry
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Nov 10, 2003--Jenzabar, Inc., a leader in software and services solutions for higher education, today unveiled the Jenzabar Total Campus Management(TM) (TCM) solution. Jenzabar TCM integrates a technology strategy and management philosophy to deliver the software and services solutions that colleges and universities need to improve education and operations campus-wide. Jenzabar`s end-to-end integrated software solution allows campuses to continuously improve
administrative processes and services.
''Colleges and universities today are being forced to manage themselves like corporations because of financial pressures. At the same time, they cannot allow these financial pressures to jeopardize their traditional values and their commitment to providing students with the best education possible,'' according to Bob Maginn, chairman and CEO of Jenzabar, Inc. ''Just as a business strategy focused on customer value and satisfaction can revolutionize a company, Jenzabar TCM provides the decision makers on campuses with a roadmap and building blocks to manage the complexities of their campus and outline a strategy for employing both a process and the products and services that will help them prosper well into the 21st century. We want our clients to be living in the best of times.''
Jenzabar TCM is a technology strategy and management philosophy that provides campuses with a process and the products and services to overcome their most pressing administrative challenges. These challenges include budgetary shortfalls, an array of incompatible software solutions from multiple vendors, increased expectations from new generations of students and increasing competition from for-profit higher education companies. Jenzabar TCM incorporates the company`s successful i3(TM) strategy of Integration, Intelligence and Internet accessible software and services and combines them with strategic advisory consulting designed to lead an institution to Total Campus Management.
''Integrating various modules of software and services throughout the more than 10 departments on a typical college or university campus is no easy chore, making it imperative that the technology providers have the flexibility and scalability built into their systems exactly like Jenzabar with its Total Campus Management solution,'' according to Sara Freeman, director of information technology, Park University. ''Park University is not your typical university situated with one campus in one location. We have 40 campus locations across the United States and to ensure that students, faculty and administrators can effortlessly communicate with one another requires 24 hour, seven day a week access to information. This requires a working partnership with a company such as Jenzabar, that understands the uniqueness of our institution and the complexities involved.''
Jenzabar`s flexible solution includes integrated ''plug & play'' software modules, bundled information management and self-service solutions for a broad range of campus constituents and a unique commitment to extensive customer involvement in the design and implementation process. To enable administrators to apply these principles, Jenzabar offers campuses a leading Web-based administrative software suite that seamlessly integrates each segment of the college campus, from students, administrators and faculty, to alumni, and family and friends off campus and delivers role-based access to administrative and academic information.
