As we shared earlier this year, we will provide 30 days' notice before decommissioning the old PAT platform. This email is notice that the platform’s last day will be February 28, 2025.

What you need to know and next steps

All evaluations have been moved to the central/OHR Perceptive Content drawers. In addition, OIT is working to transfer them into local Perceptive Content drawers, which will allow direct access for local HR teams. This transfer is expected to be completed before the decommissioning. We will provide an update by February 21, 2025, to confirm whether:

1. Evaluations are available in local drawers or
2. A temporary access solution is needed

If a temporary solution is necessary, specific instructions will be shared at that time.

Action: Notify employees and supervisors.

We’ve created an email template for local HR teams to use to notify relevant employees and supervisors about the upcoming decommissioning and encourage them to download their evaluations for their convenience. 

They will also receive a notice today about the decommissioning, and local HR will inform the relevant employees and supervisors.

If it is more appropriate for the PAT Admins to communicate this, please follow up with them to coordinate.

HR leads or PAT admins with immediate questions can reach out to talentstrategy@umn.edu. Employee and supervisor questions should be directed to local PAT admins.
