The Office of Information Technology is working to add a new tool to the suite of electronic forms tools, which they anticipate will be a much needed improvement to quickly and effectively meet the university’s eForms needs.
Technology and personnel resources for the current solution, Perceptive eForms, have been constrained for some time and the department believes this is an opportunity to introduce a new tool to improve systems and processes and focus efforts to help our campus community.
The following is a high-level roadmap of the eForms transition:
- Perceptive Content will remain the active document management tool. All existing Perceptive eForms and processes will remain supported by OIT.
- All new development for Perceptive eForms, including requests for enhancements to existing eforms, is on hold.
- Any critical errors or issues with existing Perceptive eForms will be addressed and are not included in the development pause.
- OIT is working on baseline development of a new eForms and workflow tool in which all future eForms will be built. This development is anticipated to be completed within the next month.
- OIT is investigating the best ways to connect existing Perceptive processes and the new tool so that work is not split between multiple systems.
- Projects that OIT has already committed to will retain their high prioritization and will begin work as quickly as possible. OIT will then assess the next eForms to start work on.
