Vendor Management

Did you know that 60% to 80% of most information technology budgets are spend on existing vendor maintenance fees, software upgrade costs and outsourcing contracts, according to research from Gartner Inc. Most companies spend very little of their time renegotiating witih the existing vendors versus new vendors.

Optimize magazine suggests that you consider vendor management as an evolving and dynamic process. Here are some "best practices" for CIOs to use in managing relationships with vendor partners:

Food Service Point of Sale

ImagePower, Flexibility and Speed are the Food Service POS (point of sale) program's greatest features! Centre Food Service POS was created to help cafeteria staff to get students through the lunch lines as quickly and accurately as possible.

With the press of a button, the lunch attendant selects what the student has purchased. Then, the attendant slides the student's card through the inexpensive ID scanner or input's the student's ID by hand. The student's name and picture is displayed on a confirmation screen and the student's account is debited.

Custom Report Cards in Centre

The Custom Report Card module replaces Centre's default report card with a school-personalized, custom-designed report card that will ensure Centre's top-notch grading system is perfect for your school or district.

Grades that began in Centre's teacher gradebook are "printed" directly onto a custom-designed PDF report card. Your school or district can design the report card in-house, or Glenn Abbey can design one to your specifications.

The add-on Report Card module works just like the Report Card program in your installation of Centre. You search for any number of students (every fifth grader, every IEP student, every student failing a course, everyone in Mrs. Jones' third hour class, etc) and a printable PDF document is downloaded automatically to your computer. The Report Card program is available to administrative users (such as sys admins, guidance counselors, and secretaries) and can be made available to teachers. Teachers, of course would be allowed to print Report Cards for only their students.
