As the Cornell Experience Modernization Initiative (CEMI) addresses broad aspects of the Cornell community’s technology systems and processes, several independent readiness initiatives will focus on underlying challenges that previously thwarted the adoption of holistic solutions and practices.

These readiness initiatives are developing in tandem with each other and with CEMI. The independent nature of the tandem programs enables them to progress swiftly, identify and adopt solutions for their unique challenges, and ultimately provide critical shifts in how the Cornell community thinks about and utilizes tools and data. These are all activities that are necessary for CEMI’s eventual success.

Readiness Initiatives include but are not limited to:

• Chart of Accounts
• Customer Relationship Management
• Data and Analytics
• Enterprise Resource Planning
• Gap Apps
• Identity Management
