Pleasanton, CA (PRWEB) September 7, 2010 -- Smart ERP Solutions, Inc. ("SmartERP") announced today that
Florida International University (FIU) has selected the company's Smart Grantsâą solution to streamline and
automate the Pre-award process in the Grants module of their PeopleSoft Financials application. Smart Grants
is a pre-built add-on solution designed to streamline and automate the standard PeopleSoft Grants Pre-award
process using configurable options to simplify pages and automate workflow approvals while avoiding
customizations.
FIU turned to Smart Grants after examining alternative approaches, consulting with industry experts and
engaging other universities already live on SmartERP's solution. "Simplifying the standard Pre-award process
was a requirement but we wanted to avoid the time and effort typically required to customize PeopleSoft in
order to meet our needs" indicated Al Hernandez, FIU's Assistant Director, Research Decision Support.
Whether for PeopleSoft Financials, HCM or Campus Solutions applications a number of SmartERP's solutions
focus on the common need of simplification and streamlining. "Simplifying standard PeopleSoft pages,
tailoring them to meet unique needs, streamlining processes--these requirements I hear from PeopleSoft
customers all the time. We developed Smart Grants, as well as some of our other solutions, to meet those needs
while avoiding customizations." said SmartERP CEO, Doris Wong.
Smart Grants includes configurable options to aid University principal investigators in completing Pre-award
Proposal forms through ease-of-use enhancements enabling even those unfamiliar with PeopleSoft to readily
complete proposals. The elements that comprise the company's Smart Grants solution at FIU also streamline
and automate other PeopleSoft application areas such as Billing in Financials and providing electronic
Personnel Action Forms in HCM. Added Ms. Wong, "The same software we use in Smart Grants we also use to
streamline Procure-to-Pay processes as well as to eliminate paper HR personnel forms and automate approvals
in PeopleSoft HCM".
