Does your institution have a strategic plan that outlines its vision, mission, values, goals, and strategies? If not, SunGard Higher Education can help. We can work with campus executives and other stakeholders to develop a strategic plan that will guide your institution toward its brightest possible future.
To arrive at your strategic plan, SunGard Higher Education consultants use a series of facilitated planning sessions, accompanied by small focus group discussions with institutional stakeholders to gather input and information. We tailor the number of facilitated sessions and focus groups to your institution’s size and complexity. Institutional plans typically span the next three to five years, and are reviewed and updated annually. If appropriate, your strategic plan will even name potential external of funding sources to help with the costs of executing your strategies.
The result of the Strategic Institutional Planning service is a written plan that includes:
- Institutional vision
- Institutional mission
- Institutional values
- Environmental analysis/planning assumptions
- Institutional goals and strategies
- Documented process for implementing the plan
At your request, SunGard Higher Education will also prepare a formal presentation of the planning process and the strategic plan for your institution’s Board of Trustees or other decision-making bodies.
