The UA System is honored to announce that Project One – System Transformation at Scale has been named a finalist for PMI’s 2025 Project of the Year by winning the Technology/Engineering category! The UA System’s deployment of Workday and Workday Student to 21 institutions consisting of 30k employees and 70k students has set the global benchmark for multi-institution finance, human resources, and student information system transformations. It’s rare for a higher education project to be recognized on this global stage in a field typically dominated by corporate initiatives. This honor from the Project Management Institute underscores the scale, complexity, and innovation the Project One team brought to transforming the University of Arkansas System into a pioneer of education resilience and statewide academic portability. Many thanks to our institution implementation teams and our partners at Deloitte and Workday —your collaboration turned a vision into reality. We are proud to represent higher ed among the world’s most impactful projects and eagerly anticipate the final announcement at the PMI Global Summit Awards in November.
