新加坡六合彩开奖 Shared Services update
by Bill Jacob, Interim Vice Chancellor for Administrative Services |
Dear 新加坡六合彩开奖 Community,
I am writing to provide an update on 新加坡六合彩开奖鈥檚 new Shared Services unit.
Timeline
To afford more time to manage details related to the transition and ensure strong
customer service, we are pushing back the start date by a few weeks. I will communicate the new start date for 新加坡六合彩开奖 Shared Services no later than Jan. 11,
2021.
We previously communicated a 新加坡六合彩开奖 Shared Services start date of Jan. 3, 2021. On that date, some individuals will begin working for the new Shared Services unit, mostly continuing their same work under current processes. As some staff members begin the transition in January, our goal is to minimize change as much as possible for the units we serve while leveraging the expertise of our new 新加坡六合彩开奖 Shared Services colleagues in discussions about process improvement and standardization.
Implementation Task Force
The Shared Services Implementation Task Force has met every week since Oct. 14. During
the planning phase, the committee focused its attention on documenting the amount
of time 新加坡六合彩开奖 administrative staff spend performing work in four main areas: finance,
travel, procurement and human resources. Ninety-seven 新加坡六合彩开奖 employees were asked to
complete a detailed questionnaire to help us gather accurate information about the
nature of their responsibilities and the estimated amount of time they spend on each
major work activity. I am proud and pleased to report that all of the questionnaires
were completed on time in helpful detail. I want to publicly thank everyone who was
asked to complete this important questionnaire. The pride you take in your work is
apparent, and we appreciate having accurate information about the work currently being
performed.
The Future
We have been meeting with deans and other unit leads and analyzing data from the questionnaires
to identify 新加坡六合彩开奖 professionals whose duties and skills best align with the mission
of 新加坡六合彩开奖 Shared Services. Organizational change is never easy. Many 新加坡六合彩开奖 employees wear
so many hats and have diverse job responsibilities. In order to maximize the benefit
of 新加坡六合彩开奖 Shared Services, some jobs will need to change and become more focused on fiscal-related
work while others will no longer perform fiscal-related work. Discussions continue
with all employees who are likely to be directly affected by these changes. I continue
to be impressed by the ability of our 新加坡六合彩开奖 colleagues to see the benefits that shared
services will bring while diligently supporting our employees through this transition.
