It was my junior year, near the end of the semester, and the teacher called me up for a one-on-one conference about my grade.  [ ![Shaun Bishop](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Shaun Bishop") SB ](https://learn.g2.com/author/shaun-bishop) by Shaun Bishop ## K-12 Student Information Systems Discussions 0 Question on: Ellucian Student [Does my organization have to modernize to Ellucian SaaS all at once?](/discussions/does-my-organization-have-to-modernize-to-ellucian-saas-all-at-once) A phased, capability led path to saas: Ellucian’s Navigate to SaaS approach does not require institutions to move to SaaS all at once. Instead, it is capability-led and incremental, allowing institutions to adopt SaaS in phases over time. the approach starts with what an institution needs to accomplish- not a "big bang" technical migration. Using the Capability and Reference Architecture Models, institutions can compare their goals with the Ellucian Saas delivery footprint, clearly identifying fit, gaps, and any required integrations, extensions or process changes. Saas adoption can occur capability by capability or value stream by value stream organized into planned waves rather than a single cut-over. The Capability Alignment and Roadmap Model (CARM) serves as a living, lifecycle-wide tool that supports on going saas optimization and the adoption of new capabilities as needs evolve. In short, this prescriptive capability driven approach helps institutions plan when and how to move each part of their environment to saas- providing structure and clarity without mandating all at once transition. What advantages does Ellucian’s phased, capability-led Navigate to SaaS approach offer institutions compared to a traditional “big bang” ERP migration strategy?

A mission-aligned provider delivers deep higher-ed expertise, workflows aligned to industry best practices, and purpose-built AI leaders can trust. Other vendors invest across many different sectors, building broad capabilities they hope can be configured for different use cases. Ellucian's focus is solely on higher education and our solutions are shaped by a deep understanding on how higher education operates. In what ways does a higher ed-specific SIS like Ellucian Student better support complex academic structures and regulatory demands than broadly configurable ERP systems?
