Welcome to the UOB-INFORMS Programme webpage.

UOB-INFORMS is the University of Bristol Integrated Information and Financial Management Systems Programme.

The UOB-INFORMS Programme is a collection of projects that together aim to put in place systems and processes to more efficiently and easily collect, share, integrate and analyse the information and data required to manage the University's activities effectively.

The following three projects will underpin the first stage towards achievement of this vision:

  1. fEC (full Economic Costing) to improve identification of University costs and develop costing tool(s) which enable accurate costing of specific activities.
  2. Integrated Purchasing to develop a common purchasing platform across the University for all non-salary revenue spend.
  3. Financial Management to develop a financial reporting framework, including a reporting tool, that satisfies both internal and external stakeholder requirements.

On this webpage you will be able to find more information regarding the programme, each of the projects, who's involved and regular news and progress reports. We would welcome your thoughts regarding any or all aspects of the programme, so please do contact us.
