Understanding the education and the not-for-profit sector

Education

Optimum has worked with a number of universities to support the implementation of ERP, finance, e-procurement, awards management, and HR systems.

Understanding the diverse funding streams, the way that different faculties work and the complex reporting requirements of universities, as well as the time and other constraints they often work under, helps us to construct training programmes and materials to support change. Customers in this sector include:

  • University of Surrey

  • University of Westminster

  • University for the Creative Arts

  • Loughborough University

  • Bangor University

  • Leeds Metropolitan University

Not-for-profit

The not-for-profit sector has an urgent need to ensure that all funds spent on new technologies contribute directly to the effectiveness or efficiency of the organisation, so user focused training has to be an important part of any implementation. Optimum has worked with a number of national and international charities to provide training for:

  • ERP / finance systems

  • Residents income and billing systems

  • E-procurement systems

  • HR and payroll systems

  • Expenses and timesheet systems

South Devon Healthcare - removing resource pressures

"The biggest challenge we faced with the project was the sheer number of users we had and the wide distribution of them across the hospital site. The key training we needed Optimum’s help with was bulk training all our requisitioners and authorisers."

Adam Davies, South Devon Healthcare, finance system adminstrator
