Indiana University (IU) has embarked on a significant transition from the DMAI (Watermark: Digital Measures Activity Insight) system to Symplectic Elements for faculty activity reporting. Prompted by faculty feedback, IU selected Elements through a competitive RFP process in spring 2024 and successfully launched the new system across all nine campuses by the end of the year.
The implementation team reimagined faculty activity reporting from the ground up—migrating years of historical data, integrating with multiple platforms across IU's technological ecosystem, and providing training to thousands of faculty members. This ambitious effort was deeply collaborative, involving faculty and administrative stakeholders at every stage. The focus remained on enhancing user experience, streamlining workflows, and ensuring the seamless and accurate transfer of existing data.
In this panel, key decision-makers and stakeholders will share insights, challenges, and innovative strategies from this transformative journey.
