Our Approach

AcademyOne…An Appreciation for Differentiation

3D Agile Methodology

Postsecondary providers and systems confront unique fiscal, demographic, privacy, operational, legislative, technological, data and governance challenges. AcademyOne offers unparalleled subject-matter-expertise when it comes to delivering solutions to manage complexity, variation and mobility across multiple institutions and systems to accommodate for differentiation.

AcademyOne understands the mission critical operations of higher education and delivers higher education software solutions to advance institutional, system-wide and statewide strategic goals. Improving degree completion, workforce and economic development, institutional effectiveness, system-wide productivity and accountability ensures a better future for institutions, states, regions and the country.

Our approach is to become your strategic partner and advisor rather than a typical IT vendor/solution provider. We listen, observe, inquire and work within a framework of shared responsibility and accountability, never stopping until you are completely satisfied with an affordable, sustainable solution. Our solutions leverage cloud computing for higher education, next generation higher education portal software and standards for data and system interoperability to improve affordability, efficiency and outcomes.

Discover, Define and Develop - 3D

 

Discover, Define, Develop (3D) is AcademyOne’s multi-dimensional project methodology. The 3D method has been refined and honed over the course of three decades of successful, innovative, higher education software engagements.

Learn about the three core components of 3D below:

DISCOVERY is about assessing your current circumstances and uncovering opportunities for improvements. Documenting and appreciating differing vantage points ensures a balanced, multi-dimensional solution.

DEFINE is an important stage involving requirements gathering and crafting of user stories from multiple perspectives. We present flexible solution alternatives that are architected to achieve great results using an agile process that delivers functionality and benefits quickly, predictably and on-budget.

DEVELOPMENT is continuous process that does not end with programming and testing. Delivering a sustainable solution requires ongoing performance assessment and evaluation. AcademyOne’s development team employs an agile methodology to deliver sustainable higher education software systems that stand the test of time.
