Post 1 : Project Aims and Objectives

The overall aim of the project is to produce a use case of ERM systems and a preliminary set of requirements for an electronic resource management system, for use by the University of Salford and other HE institutions and system suppliers.

To facilitate this, the project will:

• Review current manual processes that are in operation at the University of Salford
• Identify the issues these systems present
• Evaluate commercial systems and the limitations of these systems in meeting the demands of the HE community
• Compile a requirements document that is robust and can be adopted by the wider community
