Dr. McGee,

This page was built for Lenoir-Rhyne. It is a short, candid outside read on the University’s operating environment, prepared by CampusWorks + Dynamic Campus using publicly available information.

Lenoir-Rhyne’s largest entering class arrives as the University prepares to move from PowerCampus to Colleague SaaS. That combination gives the implementation immediate strategic relevance: the new environment must support a growing student body and the ambitions of Shine Ever Brighter.

Three things caught our attention.

1. A record entering class gives the implementation immediate relevance. The new environment will need to support a growing student body and Shine Ever Brighter.
2. The move from PowerCampus to Colleague SaaS is an opportunity to shape operations. Processes, data, and functional responsibilities can be examined while the transition is taking form.
3. Sustained capability matters after go-live. The University can plan now for the knowledge and support teams will need once the project concludes.

Why Lenoir-Rhyne? Why now?

1. The implementation can still be shaped. Processes and support can be considered before the new environment becomes routine.
2. A record entering class increases demand. Capacity planning can account for the University’s growth.
3. Go-live begins an ongoing operating commitment. Leadership can prepare for the work and expertise needed afterward.

This is a useful moment to step back because the evaluation is most valuable while important choices are still open — before the next operating model becomes the default.

What you can expect from a Different Perspective evaluation

CampusWorks + Dynamic Campus will provide a complimentary Different Perspective evaluation that will result in a concise, executive-level assessment designed to help you better understand the current IT environment, identify opportunities for improvement, and determine if your current IT managed services model is built for where your institution is headed.

Deliverables include:

• Key observations, findings, and recommendations emerging from the assessment.
• SWOT analysis identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and risks within the current IT environment.
• Quick wins and areas for growth highlighting opportunities for near-term improvement as well as areas requiring longer-term attention.
• High-level strategies and forward-looking options, including a 12–18-month recommendation roadmap to help guide sequencing and next steps.
• Core systems analysis covering the institution’s ERP, SIS, CRM, and related platforms.
• Initial maturity assessment of operational practices, governance, AI maturity, and cybersecurity posture.
• Prioritized themes for improvement or change identifying the areas that warrant the greatest attention, investment, or further exploration.

Before you carry today’s model forward, get a different perspective.

No proposal. No obligation. No requirement to change providers. No commitment of any kind.

Just an independent perspective on what the current model delivers, what the institution needs next, and whether those two things are still aligned.
