Get to know the new NUS Agility Office from its Director Roy Tan
We are a unit under the Office of the President that takes on various strategic projects with the view to improve the University’s agility in the face of a changing higher education landscape.
The Future at Work: Office of Finance Reveals Revamped Office
In January 2023, the office, located on the third floor of University Hall, opened its doors to returning staff following the completion of a six-month renovation that commenced last July.
Developing Employees for an Agile University
As the University affirms its commitment to lifelong learning for its graduates by scaling up its offerings in the Continuing Education and Training (CET) space, it has also pledged to develop a strong employee development programme that supports the growth of its staff.
Quantifying OE: Overhauling Enterprise Systems
The Organisational Excellence (OE) initiative was launched in 2018 to modernise NUS’ administration and enhance operational efficiency. One important component of this goal has been the upgrading of the University’s technology systems, bringing them in line with industry standards to provide for a more agile and effective support apparatus.
Employees Weigh in on NUS’ Agility
To increase efficiency on an operational level, NUS introduced the Organisational Excellence (OE) initiative in 2018 to simplify processes, overhaul major enterprise systems, and restructure NUS’ administrative services through the adoption of a Shared Services and Business Partnering model. The the NUS Organisational Agility survey sheds light on how NUS staff have responded to major changes.
Procuring Change through Branding and Empowerment
The Central Procurement Office (CPO)'s Procurement Reform 2.0 exercise resulted in the re-engineering of 12 processes and the streamlining of the University Procurement Policy. It also refreshed its brand identity, raising awareness of key changes and the unit’s mission to engage and simplify.
Developing a BPR Mindset
With the aim of increasing the speed and quality of its services, DVO teamed up with the Organisational Excellence Transformation Unit (OETU) to identify and streamline its processes over a period from August 2021 to April 2022.
DE’Hackathon: Transforming NUS Through Digital Enablement
In July, NUS staff put their digital skills to the test at the inaugural DE’Hackathon, leveraging Digital Enablement (DE) tools and technology to address challenges, experiment with new ideas, and transform work processes.
A mOSAic of Organisational Excellence
When the Organisational Excellence (OE) exercise was launched a few years ago, one of its goals was to inspire a culture of continuous improvement and agility across the University. One department which has fully embraced this ethos is the Office of Student Affairs (OSA).
NUS Rolls Out New Curriculum Management System
NUS launched a new curriculum management system (CMS) in July 2022, providing greater visibility and efficiency to module creation, review and publishing.
Navigating Compliance and Risk at NUS
Today’s workplace is becoming increasingly complex: as various business and personal relationships intertwine, identifying threats to decision-making at work becomes more difficult.
uNivUS clinches national WSH Innovation Award 2022
uNivUS was a pivotal platform enabling the safe navigation of our campuses, and monitoring of health during the pandemic.
Confidence in An Ethical Culture
Driven by NUS’ mission to maintain trust and confidence among students and the public, the NUS Whistleblowing Unit (WBU), under the purview of the Office of Risk Management and Compliance (ORMC), ensures that all staff uphold a high standard of integrity.
Digital Enablement: Tapping on Tools and Experience
Necessity is the mother of invention but openness to change and experience are essential for successfully reengineering processes and finding the right tools for the best results.
Now Admitting: Organisational Excellence
To continuously improve the admissions experience and the supporting administrative processes, OAM employs several approaches in its overall unit work routines.
Mentoring the Sustainability Champions of the Future
Not many of us have the good fortune to meet our childhood idols in real life. So, when NUS alumnae Ms Cheo Pei Rong, Senior Manager and Career Coach at the NUS Centre for Future-ready Graduates (NUS CFG), met famed biologist and natural historian Sir David Attenborough, she felt like “a total fangirl”.
New one-stop platform boosts service performance
NUService Hub, which commenced in mid-2021, has been getting the thumbs up so far. Fully launched in June, it marks a significant step in NUS’ vision to strengthen its operational efficiency and administrative excellence.
Co-creating a workplace of the future
A new series of townhalls was launched on 10 March, aimed to engage the NUS community to gather thoughtful inputs and generate ideas to reimagine and co-create the workplace of the future for NUS.
Enabling efficiency the digital way
Technology is rapidly evolvinges to generate new ways of working, and facilitating the digitalisation of processes for smoother and more efficient work.
Students play a part in Organisational Excellence
Staff may form the bulk of stakeholders in most of the OE projects but students are blue-chip players too.
