Application and Database Services
Our team of programmer/analysts and technical consultants work with Key Users to translate their business needs into technical specs. From the technical specs, we develop applications and work with the clients through the testing phase to production-approval. Work ranges from small one-day tasks to full-scale three-to-four month application development projects. Application and Database Services is managed by Jill Lund.
Enterprise Data Security
The Enterprise Data Security (EDS) office was established in 2009 to ensure that Bentley protects the information that it collects, maintains and distributes, whether electronically or otherwise. The goal of the department is to create and monitor policies, standards and procedures relating to data and IT infrastructure, which includes the management of information security based initiatives.

Enterprise Reporting
Business Intelligence (BI) is critical to Bentley's success as a university in meeting economic, pedagogical and resource challenges. Our BI team partners with all departments to provide structured access to the breadth and depth of information contained in Bentley's various business applications. In addition to implementing Cognos8 as our reporting tool, our team of business intelligence professionals continually monitor, enhance and augment our reporting environment providing the foundation for departments to conduct meaningful research, monitor critical success factors and make informed decisions. Resources are targeted to respond to Bentley's strategic initiatives. The team works with vice-presidents, directors, deans and Key Users to identify requirements, build prototypes, and deliver final products enabling those departments to be self-sufficient in their business intelligence needs from both an operational and strategic perspective.
