Challenges Difficulties

• Launching of Banner Student System is linked with
  the readiness of Satellite systems
• Access to Banner Web by Students Faculty thru
  KFUPM Portal needs their KFUPM emails to be
  received loaded in Banner
• Unavailability of Sungard Consultants when needed
  
• Change of Sungard Consultants resulted in
  different opinions by them on Banner Issues
• Lack of Technical support to resolve various
  issues related to Banner which needs immediate
  actions
• Engagement of some team members in other teams
• Enormous implementation activities being
  undertaken by Registration team requiring lots
  of time and efforts
• Involvement of team members in Banner activities
  as well as routine office work puts additional
  pressure on them
