Background

Akari Student Lifecycle Integration

The project involved the implementation of the Akari Student Lifecycle Integration, a custom application integrated with ServiceNow to automate student lifecycle processes. The solution streamlined student enquiry management, approvals, and task orchestration by providing a centralised integration hub for academic and administrative teams. It improved operational efficiency, reduced manual intervention, and enhanced visibility across the student lifecycle.

Akari Student Lifecycle Integration
The Challenge

Manual Handling of Student Queries

Student lifecycle processes were managed through manual requests, disconnected systems, and approval workflows, resulting in delays, inconsistent visibility, and increased administrative effort.

Operational impact
01

Manual Handling of Student Queries

Student enquiries required significant manual effort, resulting in slower response times and inconsistent processing across departments.

02

No Centralised Tracking

The absence of a unified tracking mechanism limited visibility into student requests and lifecycle progress.

03

Delays in Approval Workflows

Manual approval processes created bottlenecks, extending turnaround times for student-related services.

04

Limited Visibility Across Academic and Administrative Teams

Disconnected systems made it difficult for departments to collaborate effectively and monitor student lifecycle activities.

Our Solution

ServiceNow-Powered Student Lifecycle Integration

A custom integration hub was implemented to connect the Akari Student System with ServiceNow, enabling end-to-end automation of student lifecycle processes. The solution centralised enquiry management, automated approval workflows, improved request tracking, and enhanced collaboration across academic and administrative teams. Real-time visibility and workflow automation reduced operational overhead while delivering faster and more consistent student services.
