Improved performance

David Black made this Freedom of Information request to University of Glasgow

The request was partially successful.

From: David Black

4 June 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

The Secretary of Court at the University of Glasgow sent an email
to all staff on 1 June 2009 ("Investing in our future: the Student
Lifecycle Project") announcing the procurement of a new Student
Information System.

In his email he stated that "Time spent on administrative tasks
will be reduced, for both academic and support staff.".

Obviously, no experienced senior manager would make such a claim
without readily available evidence to support it.

For this reason I would like to know:

a. What administrative tasks is the Secretary of Court referring
to?

b. The time currently spent on each of the above administrative
tasks.

c. The expected time that will be spent on each of the above
administrative tasks after the new system has been implemented.

Yours faithfully,

David Black
