MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the CSU’s Common Management Systems project is to provide efficient, effective, high quality service to students, faculty, and staff. This mission will be accomplished in part through the achievement of the “target administrative environment” by the year 2008.

By 2008 the CSU (23 campuses plus the Chancellor’s Office) will:

• Perform administrative functions in concert with a common set of administrative “best practices” approaches.

• Support administrative functions (initially including human resources, financials, and student services) with a shared, common suite of PeopleSoft applications software.

• Operate the administrative software suite at a shared data center.
