Newman University and Jenzabar One

Case Study: Bushnell University Implements Jenzabar One On Time and On Budget During the Pandemic

When Bushnell University, a private, Christian liberal arts college in Oregon, needed to modernize its ERP solution because it no longer kept pace with student expectations, the university turned to Jenzabar. But when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Bushnell University had to reconsider its implementation schedule. Yet, even while given the option to delay the project, Bushnell University decided to press forward with the initiative, confident with Jenzabar’s ability to deliver on time and on budget.

The Jenzabar team worked closely with Bushnell University to get everything up and running within the planned scope and budget. By planning out an implementation schedule during safe, remote meetings, the Jenzabar and Bushnell teams adeptly managed how to set up Jenzabar One, how to train users on the new system, and how operations should look after the implementation.

We prioritize our commitment to delivering solutions on time and on budget. By using best practices gained from more than 30 years of industry experience, Jenzabar helps institutions like Newman University get their systems up and running on their schedule.

Takeaways From the Project

Challenges the university faced before partnering with Jenzabar:

  • Its existing solution was not designed for higher education.
  • The lack of best practices knowledge led to longer, inefficient processes and workarounds.
  • Minimal online self-service capabilities left students wanting more.

 After partnering with Jenzabar, the university was able to:

  • Implement Jenzabar One 100% on time, on budget during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Consolidate core systems to minimize data silos and streamline operations.
  • Expand its self-service capabilities to address students’ online needs.
  • Build a long-term, experienced consulting partnership with Jenzabar.
