IDENTIFY AND DEFINE THE PROBLEM Information Gathering Phone interview with Evan Sveum on February 28 th, 2015 Identified existing ICT offerings Identified stakeholders in project Identified current system Identified areas of needed improvement

IDENTIFY AND DEFINE THE PROBLEM Fragmented business processes and siloed information in relation to ICT data across UW Stout's business areas. Communication between current, prospective, and past students is always able to be refined and improved. Specifically in regards to improving vendor communication. UW Stout has moved from on premise to a hosted CRM solution due to a catastrophic outage and loss of service (Sveum, 2015). Because of this move, the current ICT CRM environment is still in need of process creation, setup, and data integration. As CRM is now hosted via PowerObjects, no additional hardware, software modules, or licensing costs should be needed to implement further process improvements in the immediate future. Due to the current state of CRM being blank, little to no risk is associated with implementing solutions. The collection and utilization of student information can be streamlined. For example course survey information or student interest in ICT from admissions onward can be better cataloged and utilized.
