Stop Design Requests from Being Random Emails

University design teams receive constant requests for flyers, websites, and campaign visuals. OneDesk turns these messy emails into structured, trackable tickets. This ensures clear requirements, organized feedback, and faster approval cycles. Focus on campus branding, not email sorting.

Easy Portal for Faculty Design Requests

Provide an internal submission portal where faculty and staff can easily request creative work. Connect your design studio email to capture external agency communications. Set up SLAs to prioritize urgent requests for event collateral or admissions cycles. Custom views organize requests by department (e.g., Athletics, Research).

Plan Marketing Campaigns and Publication Projects

Manage large projects like the annual viewbook or a new marketing campaign. Break the project down into design tasks: concept, draft, final proof, and production. Assign tasks to in-house designers or external vendors. Use visual tracking to ensure publications meet printing deadlines. Keep all creative projects on schedule.

Automate Proofing Cycles and Request Routing

Automatically assign new event poster requests to the Graphic Design specialist. Set up rules to move a task to 'Review' once the designer uploads a proof. Send automatic reminders for approval feedback to the requesting department lead. Automation speeds up the creative production line.

Track Internal Design Time and Budget

Track the internal non-billable time spent supporting different departments or grants. Use this data to allocate design resources fairly across the university budget. Generate internal quotes for large projects like a website redesign for a specific college. Justify the design team's value with clear data.

AI Helps Design Triage and Content Summaries

Use the AI assistant to summarize long, rambling project briefs from faculty into concise tasks. It can help draft clear feedback to designers on a creative proof. AI can categorize incoming requests by project type instantly. This reduces administrative overhead. Your designers get clear direction faster.
