About the Event
Universities are under intensifying budget pressure, yet the demand for better services and digital capability keeps rising. In this session, we’ll share pragmatic insights for getting at efficiencies rapidly and using agile ways of working to unlock measurable savings and outcomes.
The session will start by setting the scene with insights from PA’s recent VC survey, highlighting where cost pressures are biting and where institutions are still investing to protect the student and staff experience. We’ll then discuss the practical 'ways of getting at cost' across demand, processes, technology, sourcing, and operating model, highlighting where issues arise if the drivers of your cost base are neglected or the outcomes you’re targeting are not fully defined. The first 30 minutes will consist of a story led walkthrough of what really works in a cost constrained environment, followed by a 30-minute interactive panel discussion and Q&A.
