Campus Management and Microsoft Partner to Deliver Industry Leading Finance, Human Resources & Payroll Solution for Higher Education

BOCA RATON, Fla., Sept. 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Campus Management Corp., a leading provider of enterprise software products and services for higher education, partners with Microsoft to announce CampusNexus^TM Finance, HR & Payroll, powered by Microsoft Dynamics^® AX.  Campus Management is one of a select group of Global Independent Software Vendors (GISV) chosen to partner with Microsoft on Microsoft Dynamics AX, and the only partner serving the higher education sector.

"Institutions are facing unprecedented challenges in terms of delivery models, competition, funding and an increased focus on outcomes," said Jim Milton, Chief Executive Officer of Campus Management. "Finding a way to effectively address these issues is impeded by rigid, legacy systems designed for a bygone era.  CampusNexus Finance, HR & Payroll provides a flexible and agile solution leveraging leading Microsoft technology.  The time is right for this offering, as institutions chart their long-term course to address current barriers to success."

CampusNexus Finance, HR & Payroll provides rich core financial management and HR functionality of Microsoft Dynamics AX, in addition to key features required by higher education business officers and human resources administrators.  The solution, which integrates with Campus Management's student information system (SIS), CampusNexus Student, can stand-alone or integrate with an institution's existing student information system, empowering it to:

• Govern a single or multi-campus institution with department-specific workflows, approvals and document tracking;
• Streamline inter-departmental processes, realize cost savings and dramatically improve operational efficiency;
• Manage student accounts, federal work study payroll, faculty workload and credential details, scholarships and grants, and position control and budgeting.

Closing gaps found in typical ERP solutions, CampusNexus Finance, HR & Payroll includes Faculty Management, a module designed to manage faculty position type, tenure status, certifications and competencies, teaching load, performance, professional membership and knowledge creation. 

"ERP solutions for finance and HR need to be created with an agile DNA so they are adaptable to the evolving needs and pressures of higher education.  Inclusion of the Faculty Management module is one example where Campus Management has leveraged our experience working with higher education institutions around the world to solve a wide-range of challenges.  Our goal is to help colleges and universities better control the processes critical to sound fiscal management," said Connor Gray, Chief Strategy Officer at Campus Management.

Gray continued, "Our strategic relationship with Microsoft allows us to provide the higher education market with a comprehensive and flexible solution built upon the trusted Microsoft Dynamics AX platform.  Analysts and organizations recognize Microsoft as the preferred vendor for investments in ERP development, and institutions understand the value of solutions built on the Microsoft stack."

"Our Global ISV initiative focuses on those vendors at the top of the pyramid and helps us increase our relevance in key markets globally.  We identified a critical need to support the higher education sector and found a best-in-class and experienced partner in Campus Management with an aggressive product roadmap and vision for the industry that is complementary to ours," said Doug Kennedy, Vice President, Partner and Channel Marketing, Microsoft Business Solutions.  "CampusNexus Finance, HR & Payroll, powered by Microsoft Dynamics AX provides a great platform to help administrators across the globe improve their productivity and processes and ultimately help institutions focus on offering the best possible student experience."
