SDCCD
Focus on Core Mission
SDCCD, serving approximately 80,000 students across its extensive network of colleges and continuing education campuses, operates on a complex matrix of PeopleSoft applications. These include FSCM, Human Capital Management (HCM), Campus Solutions (CS), and Interaction Hub (IH or Portal), all hosted on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. This infrastructure supports a range of modules essential for the district's operational integrity, including Purchasing, Contracts, Workflows, General Ledger, Asset Management, and Payables.
Identifying Core Challenges
The Catalyst for Change
Business Challenge: Despite its efforts in routinely updating the PeopleSoft Update Manager (PUM) Images, SDCCD faced challenges in harnessing the full potential of new application features. This gap resulted in operational inefficiencies, particularly in the fiscal domain.
Technology Challenge: SDCCD's reliance on legacy PeopleSoft features, such as Classic and Classic Plus, hindered its progression towards a more modern, fluid, and user-friendly interface. This technological stagnation was a barrier to achieving greater efficiency and user satisfaction.
