Queensland University of Technology to Modernise Business Processes with Appian Cloud Platform
August 07 2018 - 7:00AM
Appian (NASDAQ: APPN), a
leading Low-Code and Business Process
Management (BPM) platform provider, today announced it will
work with Queensland University of Technology (QUT), a major
Australian university, to roll-out new enterprise applications on
the Appian Cloud Platform. QUT is redesigning business processes to
provide an improved student and staff experience, starting with
Finance, Payroll and HR processes.
“As a major Australian university with a global outlook and a
real-world focus, we are committed to providing a contemporary
experience for our staff and students through continued digital
transformation,” said Judy Stokker, Vice-President (Technology) and
Chief Information Officer at QUT. “We selected Appian to help us
along our digital transformation journey because the platform
offers fast implementation, ease of use, and flexibility.”
The university will use Appian to digitise and streamline
processes, providing a simple, intuitive interface for users which
also saves them time. The automated business rules in Appian’s
low-code platform will also help make processes more efficient,
reducing the effort needed for process administration. In addition,
QUT will leverage Appian for its reporting efforts, allowing QUT to
easily identify opportunities for process improvement, helping the
university to continue to transform the experience of its staff and
students.
QUT is one of the nation’s fastest growing research universities
and its courses are in high demand, with nearly 50,000 students
currently enrolled for the real-world experience it offers. Staff
deliver relevant teaching and applied research in close
collaboration with industry, adding a practical perspective to
theoretical education. The university’s state-of-the-art campuses
in Brisbane offer high quality learning, teaching and research
spaces and technologies to better meet the needs of students,
academics and researchers.
“The University has a strong vision for streamlining its
business processes and modernising the staff and student
experience,” said Karen Astley, Vice President Asia-Pacific,
Appian. “Appian is excited to provide the platform to accelerate
that vision and enable QUT to respond to changing business needs
with minimal time and effort.”
As well as using Appian to improve existing processes, in the
future QUT plans to use Appian applications to better enable the
design, execution, management and optimisation of new business
processes, delivering an enhanced experience for the university
community.
