Client Success Stories
Here are the most recent success stories. You can also see the complete list.
Jefferson Community College
At Jefferson Community College, students keep dining discounts and flexible campus card spending in their back pocket. Read on to learn how this two-year college improves student satisfaction along with its bottom line.
Iowa State University
Integrated solutions from CBORD help Iowa State University improve accuracy, efficiency, and service. Read on to learn how the university takes advantage of integrated solutions for food service, catering, online ordering, campus card operations, online ordering, and more.
Miami University of Ohio
A long-time CBORD customer in the food service arena, Miami University of Ohio recently improved security for its 16,000+ students with a full campus security implementation completed as a single project in a short timeframe. CBORD's CS Access™ was implemented to secure more than 4,200 interior and 325 exterior doors with the AD-Series electronic locks and Schlage® aptiQ™ contactless secure credentials from Ingersoll l Rand Security Technologies. The result proved to be one of the largest access control installations of its kind, with unique mobile features for door access and "master key" privilege elevation.
Singapore American School
Singapore American School (SAS) has long been considered a high-tech institution. Its modern and well-appointed campus, wireless Internet access, and technology-rich classrooms provide an educational experience designed with the next generation in mind. In spite of this, however, its cafeterias operated on an outdated coupon and cash system. The search for a one-card solution stemmed from parent requests for a more child-friendly approach to school lunch payment. SAS issued a request for proposals, ultimately selecting the CS Gold® one-card system from CBORD.

Odyssey PCS™ and Odyssey HMS™ handle the Illinois Institute of Technology's (IIT) housing accounts, facilities, meal plans, and activities, while CBORD's CS Access™ Link and the NiceVision surveillance system from NICE Systems help monitor security on campus.
As Iowa State University’s systems have grown, it has become apparent just how crucial CBORD’s integrated systems are: not having to integrate disparate systems from multiple vendors themselves has saved ISU money, time, and labor, and has helped to ensure accuracy.
Villanova University recently completed North America’s most comprehensive access control Near Field Communications (NFC) trial to date. Instead of ID cards, select students and staff now use their personal smartphones to access residence halls and other buildings across campus.
The Ohio State University received the CBORD’s 2009 Visionary Award for its use of Foodservice Suite® to improve efficiency and cost control through intelligent forecasting, central ordering, and online services like Webfood®, NetNutrition®, and NetCatering®.
CU is recognized for its foresight in auxiliary technology planning. The university uses CBORD solutions across campus and beyond, and enjoys the benefits of integration.
Expertise in campus card and access control management—including an extensive implementation of wired, wireless, and offline readers—is recognized at the University of San Francisco. Jason Rossi, the school’s Director of One Card and Campus Security Systems, received CBORD’s 2009 Above and Beyond Award for sharing his knowledge with fellow users.
Villanova University is recognized for its use of CS Gold online functionality to handle laundry reservations and athletic ticket lotteries.
