“Everyone is Doing It” and Other Bad Reasons for Cloud Moves
Presented by: Paul Taylor, Gideon Taylor

"When starting a digital transformation, it is best to know why you're doing it. Is moving to the Cloud a means to an end, or
... an end in itself? Are you trying to impact the bottom line, improve the user experience, or both? As the industry learns real-world lessons about re-platforming in the Cloud era, you’d better have your priorities straight. This session will take a hopefully sober, and likely sobering look at how a SaaS project affects users and finances. Moving to the cloud will definitely change user experience and functionality - probably in both positive and negative ways. Cloud moves always change cost structures - but don't automatically reduce cost. Your priorities should dictate the timing of your Cloud move, and well-informed decisions may contradict herd mentality. You may find it worthwhile to invest in dramatically improving your PeopleSoft user experience today while you are preparing for your Cloud move. Sorry if we're the first to tell you this, but SaaS won't magically make everything better. Warning: Sacred cows (and conventional wisdom) are not safe in this session! We will question the consensus meaning of “digital transformation” and propose a more challenging definition; we’ll take a clear-eyed look at the negative impacts you can expect from a SaaS move, and steps you can take to mitigate them. You might end up wanting to rethink your whole enterprise project calendar. What, did you think this was going to be easy?See More

"LUie, what’s my Math Placement score?” How LUC’s chatbot is improving student life
Presented by: Andrew Bediz, Gideon Taylor

Several years ago, Loyola University Chicago established a five-year plan to advance the Loyola Digital Experience (LDE) stra
... tegy in part by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI). A digital assistant would be a perfect blend of digitizing previously analog services, like student support, by deploying AI. The digital assistant would be piloted during the 2019 fall semester and eventually rolled out to 16,000+ undergraduate students. They named it LUie, and it would provide hundreds of answers to frequent questions while leveraging information sourced from bookstores, Google Maps, and PeopleSoft Campus. In the three+ years since LUie was introduced, data indicates it has been a resounding success. Much higher student engagement. Accuracy rates in the mid-90 percentile. Current statistical highlights include a doubling in usage rate this year validate Loyola’s decision to implement a digital assistant. See More

Automating A/P invoice processing in PeopleSoft
