Scion Creative Syndicate (SCS) is a design firm dedicated
to providing you with dynamic graphic design solutions
that will make your audience sit up and take notice.
We are an organization of designers, technologists,
artists, writers, producers, and strategists who believe
that good design is an essential element to any effective
promotional campaign.
Our work is honest and our philosophy is simple. We
embrace the unpredictable and go exploring for things
that inspire us. By believing in and partnering with
our clients, we are able to provide them with original
design solutions, customized to fit their needs, convey
their look and feel, and deliver the right message.
Simple as that.
One of our niches is
providing website design and other services to California's
charter schools. Along the way, we've developed a secure,
web-based
ordering system, allowing teachers and administrators
to place orders for materials,
courses, supplies and activities at times and from
places most convenient for them.
It
was from this "thinking outside the box" mentality
that
OPS
(Online Purchasing System) was born. Providing value
on top of great design is what Scion Creative strives
for.
The Online Purchasing System (OPS) is a proven program
for managing your student funds and detailing your
accountability. As a sophisticated financial tool,
OPS enables school administrators to devolve many purchasing
and accounting functions down to the individual student
level. OPS fosters local empowerment and accountability.
OPS gives charter school administrators
unprecedented control over ordering student materials,
classes, individual tutoring, activities and events.
Independent study teachers are able to place orders
for each of their students through a web-based, password-protected
user interface.
Administrators are able to review and authorize orders
before they are placed with vendors. OPS generates
purchase orders to be printed out or emailed that contain
order details and custom notes specific to the order.
Once teachers or parents mark items received, they
are logged into inventory.
The student inventory feature tracks non-consumable
items such as text books and equipment in order to
facilitate efficient, end-of-year returns.
Administrators and teachers are able to create customized
report templates that allow real-time data to be seamlessly
exported to spreadsheet programs for analysis and record
keeping.
Administrators and teachers can effectively monitor
Educational Units (EUs). EUs are subtracted when an
order is placed, and can be manually adjusted any time
an administrator has knowledge of available funds.
The Result
– your teachers, clerks and office staff manage their
time much more effectively.
"I want to thank the people at Scion
for all their help in making our school purchasing
program so workable for us. It has been their diligence
and support that is making our job so easy. Thanks
to their dedication our purchasing department was able
to operate in a smooth flow. There is always someone
responding quickly to all our questions and concerns.
I look forward to more years of working with them."
