Integrity Technology Solutions, a Bloomington, IL based independent systems integrator, and Champaign Community Unit School District #4, based in Champaign, IL, are excited to announce the creation of a new data management solution for the district. The solution will provide parents, educators, and administrators with instant access to information about student achievement, attendance, and discipline.
“We are extremely pleased to have been selected as the partner of choice for this project and we look forward to forming an ongoing relationship with the district around its data management needs. The combined set of components from the various vendors, with SIF as the foundation, will enable Champaign’s educators and administrators by making information available easily and seamlessly,” commented Jason Wrage, Vice President at Integrity.
Using the data integration capabilities of the Schools Interoperability Framework (SIF), Integrity Technology Solutions and Champaign Unit #4 will create a powerful and flexible solution for the district's data management needs. As an independent systems integrator, Integrity is able to bring best of breed technologies together, including components from Microsoft, Edustructures, and CPSI. The result will be a complete data warehouse and business intelligence solution that will be essential in helping the district improve its teaching, learning, and administrative processes.
Roger Grinnip, Director of Technology at Champaign Unit #4 said, "Champaign Unit 4 Schools has a very positive outlook on the benefits that this SIF implementation will have for our District. The driving force behind our SIF project is the District's data and reporting needs.” Grinnip added, “The ability for students, parents, and educators to have real time access to accurate data, in order to make data driven decisions, is critical to our efforts. We are confident that SIF is going to enable Unit 4 to streamline a lot of its processes and greatly reduce any possible errors and redundancy in our data. Looking toward the future, we are excited to be working with Integrity Technology Solutions to advance the project and take advantage of this cutting edge technology."
