“UHS has all the complexities of a major university system and a large research institution. As we have endeavored to improve our processes and become more efficient through the deployment of PeopleSoft, CIBER has been there to help us. Our partnership with CIBER has provided UHS with the means to better service our students, faculty, staff, and administration.”

Craig Ness — Executive Director for Academic Budgets and Administration, University of Houston System

“With the upgrade to our Oracle PeopleSoft applications we are now running an up-to-date system that provides increased functionality. Our technical systems are even more efficient than before and we are very excited to be running all of our Oracle applications in the 9.0 versions. We are extremely satisfied with CIBER’s implementation and plan to work with CIBER on future upgrades.”

Mario Valente — Dean of Academic Information Services, MiraCosta College

“One of the long-term benefits of partnering with CIBER is the security of knowing the consultants focus on more than the implementation of the moment. They also look toward post-implementation with an eye to ensuring that local functional and technical staff is fully prepared to manage the project on their own. We’ve had excellent help and excellent results.”

Richard Huckaba — Associate Provost and Project Manager, UT Dallas

“CIBER, as a partner, understood UW's needs. We are encouraged by the results of this go-live and look forward to the full implementation of PeopleSoft's Campus Solutions.”

Ed Meachen — Associate Vice President, Learning & Information Technology, University of Wisconsin

“CIBER is a leader in implementing student administration systems. CIBER has led the successful implementation of our PeopleSoft Enterprise Contributor Relations System, which has served us well, and the full-fledged PeopleSoft Enterprise Campus Solutions system. CIBER is skilled at implementing robust solutions and scaling them to fit the unique needs of our smaller, specialized Bible college. They have truly been a collaborative partner on our implementation of PeopleSoft systems.”

Frank Leber — Vice President of Information Systems, Moody Bible Institute

“CIBER was instrumental in ensuring an efficient go live. We were able to reduce our go-live activities, including patching, from 6 days down to 48 continuous hours. Our multiple ‘test moves to production’ allowed us to evaluate each step and to streamline our processes.”

Lee Krichmar — Director of Information Technology, Cerritos College

“We chose CIBER over five other vendors because of CIBER’s reputation, experience in the higher education community, and hands-on approach. We were really looking for that kind of partnership for this significant project. This project also strengthens the relationship between APU community members and facilitates the management and sharing of information to serve our students with excellence.”

Don Davis — Chief Information Officer, Azusa Pacific University

“Lee County School District is trying to maintain customer responsiveness with our current computer system - a 30-year-old legacy system. In today's demanding environment, our system is challenged trying to help us meet our customers' expectations. Our vision for the district is to have world class schools; we are calling this the Navigator Project. So this new ERP system supports our District vision - it will provide world class business tools for world class schools.”

Lee Legutko — Chief Business Officer, Lee County Public Schools

“After reviewing and evaluating all bids we received for our project, we chose CIBER to assist in our HR system assessment because of their extensive experience with Oracle’s PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Capital Management projects.”

Tim Clement — Senior Human Resources Analyst, San Diego County Water Authority

“CIBER's proven implementation methodologies and outstanding reputation have created at BYU Hawaii a solid and reliable partnership. CIBER consultants have blended with our institutional culture and have created an implementation environment of trust and success. We are very happy with our CIBER relationship; they have really delivered.”

Jim Nilson — Chief Information Officer , BYU-Hawaii

“The CIBER team worked extremely well with our internal functional and technical team members. CIBER knew exactly what needed to be done and came in and accomplished it. The project was well-managed and organized. What is truly amazing is that they came in and figured out how to configure Absence Management with very little assistance from Oracle.”

Rhonda Ringer — Manager, Information Technology, Delaware Department of Transportation

“I had worked with CIBER on IT projects before when I was with the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. At AAU, CIBER helped us successfully implement Oracle’s PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Capital Management, PeopleSoft Financial Management, and PeopleSoft Enterprise Student Administration solutions, which are part of the PeopleSoft Enterprise Campus Solutions family. We were quite pleased with the results. CIBER is unique in that they are not tied to a specific vendor, and they have extensive higher education experience, so I knew they could deliver for us on our Oracle project here at UTPA.”

Bob Lim — Chief Information Officer, University of Texas – Pan American

“The combination of CIBER Canada’s strong technical credentials with PeopleSoft and their significant higher education expertise is rare, and something we value highly. The CIBER Canada team understood not just the technical aspects of the project, but the broader picture, helping us to streamline operations and reduce costs, eliminating the tedious manual tasks our staff dreaded. The team smoothly completed the project on time, helping us meet our goals.”

Shelagh Hohm — Director of Administrative Information Systems, University of Alberta

“CIBER was a proven and reliable partner on our implementation of PeopleSoft HR and Finance. There are many firms claiming to have Higher Education expertise, but experience has shown us that CIBER is a partner we can trust to deliver successful results. CIBER demonstrated their expertise, talent, and professionalism to us in previous projects, and we are confident they will do so again on the implementation of Campus Solutions.”

Steven Pace — Project Director, Northern Illinois University

“We needed a system that would enable us to attract, recruit and retain students, and monitor and record their progress. We required effective e-business systems for student interaction, student financials and the standard financial processes of a large and complex organization. The PeopleSoft applications from Oracle met our requirement. And with CIBER’s own implementation and integration methodology, we can bring the system live more quickly and easily.”

Jennifer Fry — Deputy Vice Chancellor for Services, University of Derby

“CIBER was the only consulting firm to meet our standards, with more than a decade of experience with PeopleSoft products and the only consulting partner to have successfully implemented PeopleSoft student systems in the UK.”

Rosemary Smith — System Project Manager, University of Manchester

“CIBER not only delivered quality results, but they were also committed to transferring that expertise to our users and preparing Cambridge to reap the strategic benefits of this project well into the 21st Century.”

Dennis Barrington-Light — Project Director for the Cambridge Student Information System, University of Cambridge

PeopleSoft RFID Solutions

RFID is the latest technology advance to help organizations achieve even greater levels of accuracy, efficiency and visibility from their supply chains. It is an essential component of any forward-looking Lean Manufacturing and streamlined distribution initiative, and is increasingly becoming an industry standard for materials management and product distribution.

It is also highly complex – to benefit, you need access to a broad array of experience and knowledge, including expertise in encoder and reader hardware, tags, information systems integration, and operational procedures. CIBER can help. We understand RFID technology and the underlying business processes. We can help you integrate the right RFID solution with PeopleSoft to maximize and extend the benefits you receive from the technology. Our RFID Solutions are tailored to fit your needs, including:

RFID Solutions Laboratory
RFID Education Workshops
RFID Assessments and Strategic Planning
Hardware Sales and Installation
EPC Compliance Solutions
PeopleSoft integration

Exclusive RFID Solutions Laboratory

CIBER has established an RFID lab to support our RFID-related research and projects. The lab includes an array of technologies and applications needed to integrate RFID with your PeopleSoft Enterprise and EntepriseOne applications, including readers, antennae, tags and hardware platforms. The lab enables CIBER to determine and ensure that your project is configured to meet your unique requirements, and gives us an environment in which to test and simulate various options without any risk to you.

CIBER's RFID Lab supports:

Research to determine new applications for various hardware configurations
Testing to determine optimal hardware and software configurations for clients/prospects
Research and testing of RFID business processes
Simulation of RFID environments

RFID Education Workshops

From a half-day Executive Overview to detailed, customized curriculums, CIBER can help your team understand the dynamic landscape of RFID technology so that you can make informed choices about its adoption in your organization. CIBER can also assist you in understanding the current technology standards and the differences between leading RFID vendors.

Assessments and Strategic Planning

Setting a clear strategy and effectively integrating system components are the keys to getting the most from RFID. CIBER’s experienced consultants can help you achieve these objectives and determine the most effective way to leverage RFID in your organization.

CIBER’s RFID Assessment helps you determine the best solution for your immediate and long-term RFID data needs. From compliance through full integration of RFID-enabled processes, we can help you evaluate costs and benefits associated with both packaged and custom solutions. In addition, CIBER will assess your RFID environment to help you understand your hardware options.

RFID Solution Components

RFID Solutions include one or more of the following components:

EPC Compliant Hardware: CIBER has the partnerships and in-house expertise to ensure access to the latest EPC compliant hardware and infrastructure, and to integrate these components as a complete solution. Components may include: RFID readers and printers, EPC-compliant tags and other supporting hardware and infrastructure.

Data Synchronization: Ensuring that your partners' tag read data is consistent with the data residing in their business systems is central to the efficiencies an RFID solution can provide. Unfortunately, there are few standards. CIBER can help your organization understand its options to effectively synchronize with the Global Registry, and can keep you apprised of trends in this rapidly-evolving area.

RFID Enabling Software: RFID systems require software that manages devices, networks, data and processes to enable continual information flow, alerts, decision support and real-time response to an existing host, ERP or WMS system. CIBER can help you understand the steps needed to configure PeopleSoft for RFID processes, and can implement custom or packaged RFID enabling solutions.

Integration Services: The full value of EPC compliant RFID systems cannot be realized until they are integrated to other business systems and trading partners and used effectively by your business. CIBER’s extensive integration experience and deep technical knowledge ensure your EPC Compliance Solution can realize its full value.
