RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Aug. 31, 2017 -- The University of California San Diego has received the prestigious National Association of College and University Business Officers Innovation Award for the strategic initiative around Integrated Procure-to-Pay Solutions.
JAGGAER, provider of the world’s most comprehensive Source to Pay (S2P) solution suite, partnered with UCSD to create a program that has transformed the delivery of administrative actions, and improve the management of campus expenses. The university has been able to negotiate discounts, and maintain and track certificates of insurance, health permits, and inspection report documentation. In the first six months of this program, the University of California San Diego has accrued (accumulated) $67K in savings and an estimated 900 hours have been saved, due to the reduction of manual processes.
The University of California San Diego is a top 15 research university worldwide, serving over 35,000 students. UCSD received the NACUBO Innovation Award as a higher education institution that has successfully designed a new innovative program that improved the service delivery of administrative activities in response to campus needs.
“Here at JAGGAER we strive to provide a solution that will allow our customers the opportunity to not only meet, but to exceed their organizational goals,” said Robert Bonavito, CEO of JAGGAER. “UCSD’s recognition spotlights their innovative program as the de facto standard for other higher education institutions.”
