Roadmap

UNM has purchased Salesforce Education Cloud, an advanced Constituent Relationship Management (CRM) platform that is tailored specifically towards educational institutions. The system includes features essential to supporting advisement communications, scheduling, and streamlining recruitment and admissions processes. It includes functionality that enables users to manage engagements into a single, cohesive platform aligning us with 2040 Goal #2 of improving the overall experience for students and the UNM staff who support them through their academic journey.  

Our approach to this project involves an active roadmap detailing the project’s progression.  This roadmap outlines the sequencing and rollout priorities based on these conditions: 

  • Standard functionality available in Salesforce Education Cloud 
  • High level UNM priorities with some level of custom development 
  • Lower level UNM interests that enhance or expand initial customization
