Implementation and support

The software is the smaller part of the work

Campus projects rarely fail on features. They fail on migration that was underestimated, integrations nobody scoped, and training given once to everybody. Implementation is planned in eight stages, and you can prepare for the first conversation with a printable migration checklist.

  1. Discovery and configuration

    Your regulations, structures and workflows are established, and the modules set up to match.

  2. Migration and integration

    Existing records are brought across from agreed sources, and connections to other systems are set up.

  3. Testing and training

    Each department checks its own processes and is trained on the modules it will use.

  4. Go-live and support

    The system goes into use, with support under the terms of your agreement.

Questions

Asked before a demonstration

Do we have to take every module?

No. Institutions take the modules that address their current problem and add others later. Which modules are included is set out in your proposal; nothing on this site should be read as meaning every module is part of every deployment.

What does the software cover?

Admissions; academics and student administration, including electives, examinations, grading and transcripts; fees and finance; HR and payroll; institutional operations such as stores, hostel and transport; placement; and executive education with OLT ExecCampus. The OLT SIS platform adds learning management, online quizzes, similarity checking, grievances and ticketing, and an optional AI add-on, and there is also faculty and staff recruitment. Each area is described on its own solution page.

What happens to our existing data?

Migration is scoped with you during discovery: which records come across, from which sources, and from what cut-off date. Student, course and faculty data can be imported from spreadsheets. We do not commit to a migration scope before we have seen the source data. The migration checklist helps you prepare.

Is it hosted, or installed on our own servers?

Both models exist. Institutions can use a hosted service in which each institution's data is kept separate from every other institution's, or a standalone deployment for a single institution. The right model depends on your procurement route and your data policy, and is agreed in the proposal.

Can several institutions in a group run on one platform?

Yes. The hosted applications are built to serve multiple institutions, each with its own configuration, users and data.

What happens after we request a demonstration?

We reply to arrange a time, and ask which offices and workflows matter most so the demonstration covers those. You do not need to prepare anything. If you have used the requirements builder, you can attach its summary to the request.

What does it cost?

It depends on the number of students or participants, the modules you take and the deployment model. Tell us those three and we will give you a figure.
