To preserve its place as one of the UK’s leading academic institutions, The Open University has embarked on a programme of Students First Transformation, which will lead the transition to a new operating model. One of the key enabling workstreams within Students First Transformation is the Digital Technologies workstream. The aims and objectives of this workstream are to drive forward the necessary organisational and technical changes to ensure that The Open University becomes a truly digital first organisation and enables the other workstreams of Students First Transformation to achieve their objectives by providing the underlying technical infrastructure and business ownership necessary to meet future demands. Through the Digital Technologies workstream, the University is specifically looking to procure a new integrated HR, Finance and Student Record System, together with the services to configure, integrate, implement and host this system, and ongoing support and maintenance.
