University success stories
WAMS has helped us achieve our objectives in a number of ways because we are a data-led institution and use data to make evidence-based decisions. Our regular reporting enables Deans and Schools to identify non-compliance with our Enterprise Agreement, ensuring that staff are not over-allocated and that workload is optimised. A critical benefit is being able to respond to budget constraints with reliable data behind our allocations.
The most obvious advantage of Simitive’s ABC product, apart from helping us produce an accurate TRAC return on time, is our ability to compare outputs. We can compare different periods and versions, adjust the variables and analyse them. The potential is huge - we are confident the product increases the efficiency of delivering TRAC.
The most obvious advantage of Simitive’s WAMS, TAMS and benchmarking is our ability to effectively collect data, report, and gain oversight on how our academic staff - one of the university's biggest resources - meet their objectives. This then shapes how we proceed with other initiatives.
