Heriot-Watt University has acquired state-of-art RSI Queue Management System and Self-Service Solutions for their students and visitors. The Heriot-Watt Dubai Campus is among the very first foreign universities starting their campuses in Dubai Academic City, UAE. The university is well-known for its science, engineering and business studies and is considered among the best educational institutions around the world. The Heriot-Watt University is contributing to shaping modern societies in all the communities they are present in. The university was founded in 1821 and since then it is growing all over the world, helping thousands of students in their pursuit of knowledge. The Heriot-Watt University Dubai Campus is greatly contributing to the government and private sector by providing a steady stream of professionals, scientists and experts. These individuals are actively contributing to the nation’s economy, progress and growth. The Heriot-Watt University Dubai Campus also holds some of the very advance educational frameworks and facilities to improve the quality of education.
The university is also very well reputed in UAE because they are not only providing quality education but they have established a remarkable system to reduce the burden of the official affairs and other processes so that the students can entirely focus on their studies only. Recently the Heriot-Watt University Dubai Campus has decided to implement a new queue management system and self-service solution to reduce the queues and service delivery time which often consumes a lot of time and could distract students from their educational activities. The other objective was to facilitate the visitors and the students and their parents who are visiting for new enrollments and registrations. RSI Concepts was contacted and we have discussed the requirements and the objectives of the system. We have explored many ideas and formulated the base of the system. Then a full project scope and plan was presented to the university management which was approved and appreciated then the full-on production phase got started.
The main key components of the system are a queue management system for the students and the visitors, a QMS software server, Agents Portal and Dashboard, digital signage, audiovisual announcements and an interactive self-service kiosk. The most frequent student related processes such as student enrollment, course registration process, program amendments, letter issuance, transcripts requests, and KHDA attestation and many more processes can be offered via self-service interactive kiosk. The queue management system was designed specifically for Heriot-Watt University to minimize the student/visitor wait time and to make the service delivery quicker. Our queue management system provides an interactive agent dashboard interface which further reduces the workload of the agents and servers to improve their efficiency. The automation of the customer flow leads to quicker service delivery and a good student/visitor experience. The entire student journey was designed to minimize the efforts of the students and the staff and to reduce the service delivery time and wait time. There is a very powerful data analytics engine that enables the system to generate comprehensive reports and statistical data which could help the management to further take steps to improve the service quality, service delivery time and visitor/student journey.
Here are the remarks of our Product Manager, Mr Shehzad Asghar:
“It was truly a unique experience working with the highly professional team and the management of the Heriot-Watt University Dubai Campus. We are happy to meet their expectations and the system’s UAT proved that the system is not only working above the optimum efficiency but beyond that. The management was very satisfied as our queue management system will not only help them accelerating various processes but it is significantly reducing the service delivery time which will not only satisfy their students and visitors but it will also reduce the workload of the staff and the management.”
