Higher Ed Impact Starts with a Napkin Sketch. Let’s Create Yours.

What do Southwest Airlines, Pixar films, and Ethernet have in common? They were born on the back of a napkin.

 

Big ideas don’t need overcomplicated beginnings. They need clarity. And in higher ed, where systems don’t talk to each other, data silos slow everything down, and endless workarounds outpace sustainable solutions, clarity is everything. How do you wrap your head around it all?

 

Enter the napkin sketch.

 

This isn’t another drawn-out “discovery phase.” It’s an engaging and clear way to visualize your entire institutional ecosystem. In less than 90 minutes, it gives you and your team visibility into what’s working, what’s broken, and where to focus next. And we’re offering it up at no cost to you.

The Value of a Collegis Napkin Sketch

  • Provides a no-nonsense view of your IT infrastructure, data flows, and conversion points.
  • Helps you spot the gaps, bottlenecks, and wasted effort.
  • Starts the development of a tactical roadmap — no consultant jargon, just clearly identified opportunities.
  • Let’s you walk away with an artifact your team can rally around.

This is how executive leaders take control of their technology strategy. Complete the form to kick off a conversation and see if a napkin sketch is the starting point your school’s missing.

(Actual paper napkins are not used — that’s what our virtual whiteboards are for.) 

Collegis didn’t just help us evaluate our processes — they led us on a journey to uncover areas of improvement we hadn’t even considered. Their expert guidance illuminated the path forward, empowering us to create a more positive, streamlined, and truly enjoyable student experience.
