Reviewing the Fit/Gaps

The ASR directors are engaging our college and coordinate campus partners in reviewing the fit/gaps in preparation for the PeopleSoft 9.0 upgrade. A "fit/gap" is an analysis to determine to what extent the functionality of a new system (in this case, the new version of PeopleSoft) "fits" our business needs and processes; the "gaps" are noted as differences between the new functionality and the way we do things now. A gap isn't always a bad thing. Our goal for this next upgrade is to be strategic about the modifications we choose to implement with the upgrade. Reducing modifications will result in better support for the system and cost (and time) savings, especially during future upgrades.
