Student Scale UFSC serves about 36,000 students across more than 50 undergraduate programs, plus master’s and PhD tracks, creating high demand for scalable learning platforms, student information systems, analytics, and digital libraries. This scale presents opportunities to offer an integrated LMS, exam proctoring, e-book licensing, and analytics services to improve student success and operational efficiency.
Public Sector Potential As a major federal university funded by government, UFSC engages in public procurement and research collaborations. This creates a channel for enterprise software contracts, cybersecurity and data protection solutions, cloud hosting, and research-institution partnerships that can be scaled across the university system.
Tech Modernization The current tech stack includes PHP, MySQL, jQuery Migrate, Video.js and related web technologies, signaling legacy components and room for modernization. Opportunities exist to propose cloud-native hosting, API-driven integrations, modern LMS/ERP modules, and managed services to improve performance, security, and developer productivity.
Security Compliance UFSC already shows security-conscious practices (HSTS) and must comply with Brazil's LGPD. This opens demand for identity and access management, single sign-on, data protection, audit trails, and compliance-driven security assessments.
Media Delivery Use of Video.js and media-focused workflows points to significant content delivery needs for lectures, events, and digital courses. Potential upsell opportunities include enterprise video platforms, transcoding, CDN integration, LMS video-embedding, and digital asset management.
