Fragmented Readiness
Spreadsheets and local status calls make statewide readiness hard to see until late in the cycle. VCCS needs one view of risk without erasing local ceremony practice.

Statewide commencement confidence, ready on day one.

THE CHALLENGE
What VCCS Faces Today
Manual Handoffs
Candidate records, tickets, accommodations, reader cards, and event-day queues often move through email chains and stale exports. Each handoff creates a chance for delay or error.
Public-Facing Risk
Accessibility misses, ticket confusion, and stage sequence issues become visible to families at the worst possible moment. Commencement needs operating evidence before, during, and after the ceremony.
WHAT CommenceFlow DELIVERS
Statewide confidence without statewide sameness.
CommenceFlow demonstrated a ceremony operating layer for 23 colleges and 40 campuses: one systemwide readiness picture, one evidence trail, and configured college-level control for local traditions, venues, ticket rules, accessibility handoffs, and stage practices.
The application carries the Ready Day One theme through real workflows: PeopleSoft ingestion, graduate RSVP, ticket allocation, ADA review, event-day check-in, stage sequence, and reporting operate as connected states instead of disconnected lists.
- Preserves local college ceremony practices through governed configuration.
- Turns high-visibility event-day work into live queues, evidence, and staff actions.
- Uses Turanto generation to reduce delivery risk from requirements to deployable application.
CAPABILITIES
Everything VCCS Needs. Nothing It Doesn't.
Statewide Readiness Command
Gives the System Office one operating picture for ceremony readiness, risk, ADA backlog, ticket capacity, PeopleSoft sync posture, and audit export across all colleges.
PeopleSoft Candidate Ingestion
Keeps candidate records visible, staged, reviewable, and auditable before they drive RSVP, ticketing, ADA, reader card, or stage workflows.
Graduate RSVP & Self-Service
Lets graduates confirm participation, update ceremony-facing details, request accommodations, provide pronunciation information, and receive confirmations through a guided experience.
Guest Ticket Allocation & QR Entry
Controls ticket limits, allocation, digital wallet delivery, QR validation, capacity posture, and guest entry evidence from a single lifecycle.
ADA Accommodation Workflow
Turns every accommodation commitment into an owned, dated, tracked, privacy-aware, event-day-ready workflow with evidence.
Reader Cards & Pronunciation
Protects the graduate stage moment by connecting approved display name, degree, honors, pronunciation, reader card print status, podium queue, and crossing evidence.
Event-Day Check-In & Stage Control
Moves staff from stale lists to live queues, check-in totals, QR validation posture, ADA handoffs, exception control, and stage sequence visibility.
Reporting, Audit & Improvement
Generates post-ceremony evidence from the work performed throughout the lifecycle so each ceremony improves the next cycle.

HOW IT WORKS
From RFP requirements to a live ceremony system.
RFP Requirements In
The VCCS Statement of Needs becomes structured input for entities, relationships, workflows, roles, integrations, and evidence needs.
Application Generated
Turanto generates the data model, user interface, API layer, role controls, audit patterns, and deployment assets from that structured model.
Live System, Same Day
The evaluator accesses a running system that demonstrates the commencement lifecycle rather than a static design file.
