““The core of any university is its Student Information System. This contains almost all the data associated with the student’s journey towards achieving a qualification from the University. The University procured Ellucian Banner over 15 years ago and customised it over the years to address our business needs. This is no longer a sustainable strategy, so we looked to Higher Digital to help understand the customisations, to define a transformation path and to prioritise this path meaningfully through a roadmap. The prioritisation tool has been very helpful in adjusting the roadmap in response to changing business priorities and Ellucian release. With it, we have been able to model different potential approaches to Banner de-customisation.”

Here are a few examples of relevant projects

  • At University of Leeds, we added API calls to a Third-party Postal Address Lookup software solution to the University Student Registration pages. This project streamlined the student experience and significantly improved data quality. This project included defining requirements, testing approach, test cases, development, technical documentation and overall documentation and testing.
  • We helped a university transition their vital custom forms used by administrative staff from Banner 8 to Banner 9, using Page Builder.
  • We helped another institution migrate their custom Banner tables to use Baseline fields or extended fields, simplifying their ongoing support and reducing technical debt.

We help institutions enhance their systems, implement new technologies, and improve overall functionality. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies, we provide development and other capabilities tailored to your institution’s needs. Our expertise ensures your systems are secure, scalable, and optimized for performance.
