Taming the beast

• Duplicate services
+more operative costs +more complex daily life for students

• Poor integration between applications inside U and
with suppliers
• Many technologies, and in-house (no-) standards
+lack of integration -poor governance +more costs

• No systemic view
-no strategic planning for services +more operative costs -no good
brand building

• U are functional organizations, not processes
oriented
