BACKGROUND The University launched SITS for admissions processes in 2019 and began managing active student records through SITS in summer 2022. The academic year 2022/23 represents a significant milestone for the University as we transition from project implementation to a new operating model. The implementation of SITS is a key enabler for digital transformation in the delivery of academic administration within the University, and the new operating model is designed to ensure that the University can build on the core system foundations to deliver improved services to students and staff. The implementation of SITS represents a significant shift in the delivery of core academic administrative processes, and the underpinning technical infrastructure, consolidating many services that were previously delivered outside the student record system. To reflect its increased scale, and value to the University, the operating model is designed around delivering SITS technical services, SITS data services and SITS business services. Overall leadership and accountability for the SITS Product and Services rests with the Assistant Director of Registry Services (SITS Lifecycle). Leadership of SITS technical services is delivered by the Product Manager (SITS), leadership of SITS data compliance is delivered by the Head of Student Reporting and Data Quality, leadership of student records and curriculum is delivered by the Head of SITS Records Management and leadership of SITS business services is provided by the Head of Student SystemsUser Experience. These roles all form the SITS leadership team. The Heads of Registry functions will be expected to work collaboratively as a management team, to develop an integrated approach to the delivery of Registry services and the flexible management of resources to support the business needs at key periods.
