Higher Education Industry Experience

As the leader in higher education PPM software, TeamDynamix understands that higher education and corporate environments differ. Colleges’ and universities’ priorities are driven more by increasing retention, maintaining accreditation, political impact and building consensus support than ROI or net present value. The environments are different. The solutions and approach should be too. TeamDynamix software and services adhere to a higher education specific PPM approach.

• TeamDynamixHE is the only PPM solution built for Higher Education.
• Solutions are specifically engineered for the consensus- and committee-intensive Higher Education environment.
• TeamDynamixHE product planning and development are driven by Higher Education IT leadership and PMO directors.
• Benefit from an active user group of Higher Education peers.
• The solution integrates processes and metrics recommended by respected organizations for IT in Higher Education.
• Low-risk, Higher Education maturity-based implementation approach.
• Knowledgeable staff with proven Higher Education experience.
• Easy-to-use tools = rapid and permanent implementation.

• Shoehorned work creates resource bottlenecks, budget overruns, missed commitments and cascading delays.
• No reliable visibility into strategic project, maintenance, operation and support work performance and resource demand.
• No clear view into project activity and performance, allowing underperforming projects to slip through the cracks.
• Resources are not enabled with tools and methods to manage projects efficiently and consistently.
• Resources do not have one point of access into what they're supposed to work on, when and how to update work.
• Leadership doesn't know what everyone is working on, leaving the door open to wasted capacity and under-the-radar "pet" projects.
• Project management tools and processes are not used consistently, making apples-to-apples evaluation impossible.
• Projects are forced on IT that don't align with strategic objectives and stakeholders don't clearly understand how IT work supports their objectives.
• IT funding is inadequate to support both strategic innovation and maintenance and support, reducing the CIO's role in pushing the university forward.

TeamDynamixHE is actively involved in the Higher Education IT community, annually sponsoring booths, breakfasts and roundtables at EDUCAUSE conferences.
