In July 2025, the Empowering UF Reporting Team hosted a session to introduce the Empowering UF reporting processes and the Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) Program to key stakeholders.
The Empowering UF program structure includes three pillar programs:
And we have three critical success factors:
The EDW, also called UF OneLake, integrates data across systems, enables complex and cross-domain analytics, and provides the university community with an efficient and organized way to store, share and learn from its data. It also supports our performance goals and metrics and is optimized for performance and scalability.
Empowering UF will manage the reporting needs of functional users. With a “Workday First” prioritized reporting approach, user stories (requirements) will help identify reporting needs for development in either Workday or the EDW. It’s a complex and iterative process involving functional leaders and staff from across the university who will contribute during upcoming “deep-dive” requirements discussions this fall.
Please stay tuned for more to come.
