Once you have decided to shop for a new HR technology solution, you want to make sure you are identifying and evaluating vendors on the things that matter. It’s easy to get caught up in feature and functionality comparisons among vendors. In addition to those things—are there other areas you should make sure you have a full understanding before signing any contracts? Join Kristen Wylie as she covers five critical things you shouldn’t overlook throughout the selection process including:
The configurability of the solution. Are the vendors able to adopt to your critical processes and workflows or do you have to adapt yours to their system? When is okay to flex your workflows and when is it not?
The ongoing product support model post implementation. If you have an issue, can you pick up the phone or email someone and expect a reasonable turnaround time? Is it better to have a designated account manager or a team of representatives ready to address your issues real time?
Underlying dependencies around integration and technology partnerships. These may not be represented during the demo and could add cost and complexity to the implementation. What is the process for data transfer from existing systems?
Different approaches to pricing models and what to ask to ensure you fully understand what you are receiving from your contract.
Types of end-user training, remote or on-site services available to train end users of all types to drive adoption. It’s also critical to understand the release schedule and the product road map—are there on-going knowledge paths to support new users and new features and functionalities when released?
Learning objectives:
Understand what questions to ask your vendor during the product demo.
Gain a stronger understanding of the different pricing models you will encounter during the selection process and how to truly understand what you’re getting for your money.
Learn what are other ways beyond the product that vendors should be able to support you in meeting your goals and objectives.

Having underutilized or idle resources can be just as harmful to your business as not having enough processing capacity or network bandwidth. Failure to do effective Capacity Planning becomes clearly visible to your customers, especially your internal customers.
The good news is that the return on investment of implementing capacity management and capacity planning is most definitely positive and provable, both in terms of tangible monetary value and in some less tangible but no-less-valuable benefits.
View this webinar on-demand and learn:
• The core requirements that need to be part of your capacity management tools
• Tangible Return on Investment opportunities you can expect to realize
• What some of the non-tangible benefits from Capacity Management are
• Ways to demonstrate these benefits to your company

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).

Fusion supports the implementation of the College’s ERP strategy
& enables the successful realization of the College’s Strategic Plan
(2012-2017) by supporting the following goals:
3
StrategicPlan,2012-2017
• Leverage technology to automate and modernize our business
processes, fostering an environment of continuous improvement
Goal 6
• Attract, develop and retain employees who have the knowledge
and skills to be fully contributing members of the College.

INPUTS
OUTCOMES
• Listening Tour
• MNP Risk Profile
• Digital Strategy
• IT Strategy
• Auditor Letter of
Recommendation
• Empower & enable departments to manage
their own reporting, data analytics
• Focus resources on value-added services vs.
manual transactions
• Reduce current ‘centralized’ model for IT
support on corporate applications
• Deliver on top three risks: Business Process
Automation; IT Infrastructure; Human
Resource Strategy
• Take advantage of SaaS solutions which are
feature rich, stay current & ensure a
cohesive administrative set of processes
• Address gaps in IT Controls of corporate
systems
5. Technology and Infrastructure Drivers
Aging infrastructure and legacy disparate systems have a significant
impact on solution integrations
Increased complexity in IT resourcing (scarce skill sets and
disappearing systems knowledge)
Inadequate system and process documentation
SaaS solutions transfer some of the operations risk to the SaaS
vendor such as power outages, loss of data, etc.
Eliminate data duplication and integrity issues by centralizing
business and data information
InfoSec industry best practices not fully implemented, need
improvements to identity and access management to mitigate
against future data breaches and deficient IT controls
Lack of support for mobile access 5
6. Project Fusion Strategy
• Provide value added, contemporary, integrated HR/Pay/Finance
solution with standardized interfaces to enable future expansion and
timely integrations
• Automate, re-architect and document enhanced business processes
• Centralize business information and remove duplication
• Improve data integrity and business intelligence (BI) to foster
business agility
• Provide simplified access (i.e. direct, mobile access)
• Eliminate need for custom software development by specialist IT
staff
• Enhance IT security controls that have been highlighted as
deficiencies by our external auditors
6
7. Rationale for Key Project Decisions
7
Key Decision Rationale
SaaS Delivery
model
• Cloud services position the College to meet changing business
needs with open, agile and secure solutions that meet industry
standards
• Centralizes business information and data that is not managed
through interfaces with issues of synchronization and currency
• Expansion of value add business functionality is inherent with
continual upgrades that offset the effects of falling behind the
competition
• Enables streamlining of administration and implementations of
typically complex integrations
• Operational risk is shared with SaaS vendor (i.e. standards-
based data center, availability, fault tolerance, disaster recovery,
data integrity)
• Supports best practices, business process automation and keep-
current documentation
8. Rationale for Key Project Decisions
8
Key Decision Rationale
Unified Solution • Leverage common functionality
• Reduces operational efforts as the alternate “best in breed”
approach has a multiplier effect and cost on administration,
infrastructure, support and maintenance which is not viable
in the long term
• Provides consistent user experience
• Enables the ability to respond quickly to integrations
Phased Deployment
Approach and
Timeline
• Significant change to business processes impacting all
employees, phasing will provide more time for business to
digest and adapt to the change
• More time to verify solution and train employees as less
modules rollout in parallel
• Research indicates possibility of “subscription fee vacation”
or deferral of solution costs for phased implementation
9. Rationale for Key Project Decisions
9
Key Decision Rationale
Professional
Development (PD)
Rollout
• Based on research, this functionality is not part of an
integrated ERP solution
• A separate PD solution will be sourced
Budget System (BUS)
Replacement Rollout
• Based on research, robust budget functionality within an
ERP solution is not available
• A separate budget solution will be sourced
ERP data does not have
to reside only in Canada
• Based on an assessment, data may reside in the US,
Canada and member states of the European Union (EU)
