Montreal, Quebec – May 2026 – Explorance, a global leader in feedback analytics, today announced an expanded partnership with Ivy Tech Community College. Building on its successful use of Explorance Blue for course evaluations, Ivy Tech has selected Explorance BlueX to scale its survey capabilities, streamline decentralized feedback processes, and enhance data-driven decision-making across the institution.
Serving more than 200,000 students annually and employing over 6,000 staff across 19 campuses, Ivy Tech operates within a highly complex, multi-campus environment. As the institution sought to extend its feedback strategy beyond course evaluations, it required a flexible, enterprise-grade platform capable of supporting diverse use cases while maintaining governance and consistency.
Prior to adopting BlueX, Ivy Tech faced limitations with its previous survey solution, which struggled to support its decentralized structure. Survey creation and management were often manual and time-intensive, reducing agility and placing additional strain on administrative teams. Limited integration with institutional data further constrained the depth and actionability of insights.
With BlueX, Ivy Tech has established a more scalable and efficient approach to survey management. The platform enables distributed teams to create and manage surveys through flexible workspaces, while maintaining centralized oversight, striking a critical balance between autonomy and governance.
A key factor in Ivy Tech’s decision was BlueX’s ability to automate workflows and integrate with internal systems. These capabilities have significantly reduced administrative effort, saving more than 60 hours per term while improving data accuracy and reporting efficiency. As a result, teams can shift their focus from operational tasks to analysis and strategic action.
“In Summer 2026, Ivy Tech Community College adopted BlueX as its primary survey tool. With 19 campuses, over 200,000 students annually, and more than 6,000 employees, we needed a solution that could support a more robust, research-driven survey culture,” said Kaley Schoeph, Director of Survey Research.
“BlueX’s automation, integrations, and intuitive design have enabled us to streamline and scale our survey processes. Through system integrations, we’ve enriched survey insights with student and faculty data, while workspaces have empowered teams to manage surveys more efficiently at the campus level.”
BlueX also supports Ivy Tech’s goal of strengthening a research-driven feedback culture. By enabling deeper integration of institutional data and more advanced reporting, the platform helps generate richer, more actionable insights from student, faculty, and staff feedback—extending the value of feedback beyond collection to meaningful institutional impact.
Equally important to Ivy Tech was the strength of the partnership. The institution cited improved support responsiveness, a more collaborative working relationship, and increased confidence in Explorance as a long-term partner. “Working with Explorance has strengthened our confidence in the systems we rely on and the outcomes they deliver,” added Schoeph. “This ultimately allows us to better serve the Ivy Tech community with greater efficiency and effectiveness.
