SunGard SCT Banner is an integrated suite of enterprise wide applications on a single database. It supports student, financial aid, finance, HR, and advancement systems in institutions of all sizes.
YASH Education Practice provides a complete services package to educational institutions using SunGard SCT Banner administrative suite. We apply a rigorous project management discipline to the planning, design, and pre/post implementation of enterprise systems, with the unique knowledge of the educational business challenges. Our education clients develop a strong technological and operational infrastructure to meet their strategic goals.
YASH's Packaged Application Implementation and Management YASH supports the installation, configuration, and integration of SunGard SCT packaged applications, along with post-implementation maintenance, support and enhancement. Before implementing any new technology, YASH ensures that the institution is ready to adopt and transform it into real value, by examining the process, IT infrastructure, and security. We will also develop a business and IT plan that will cost-effectively support your implementation costs. We determine the best pathways for the allocation of internal/ external technology resources before, during, and after implementation. This validates and enhances the performance of your infrastructure while reducing any problems that may impact service levels for your students, faculty, or administration.
Post-Implementation Maintenance Application upgrades are an integral part of your IT investment maintenance. They provide your existing system with enhancements such as valuable web capabilities that impact productivity and market presence. YASH Education Practice will retrofit all customizations rapidly and effectively with minimal impact to your daily operations.
Development/ Customizations SunGard SCT Banner is a proven end-to-end solution for student information, financial aid, and faculty and advisors. However, organizations typically have specialized business needs that require customized software. YASH will develop your customized software and will assist you through the entire software development cycle, including project management, systems analysis and design, development, and implementation using SEI-based best practices.
State and Federal Reporting Educational institutions are continually impacted by new legislation. They must respond by rapidly incorporating changes into their HR, and payroll systems. YASH specializes in assisting institutions with these ever-changing reporting requirements. We ensure that all new reporting requirements are developed, tested, and promoted into production by their required deadlines.
Interfaces/ Integration We know that all institutions must integrate other business systems such as RMS (housing application), Blackboard, Bookstore, Library, Parking, and Campus Police. We will develop interfaces to these other business systems, and to Enterprise Resource Planning modules such as Peoplesoft Financials and Human Resources. YASH Education Practice is also specially trained to develop API's for other business systems to operate efficiently with Banner version 7.X.
Performance Tuning Performance tuning is vital to educational institutions as new technologies put increasing demands on systems, but end users expect increased response and processing times. We have the expertise needed to get the best performance from your SunGard SCT Banner system, at both the database and application level.
