Not all adjectives have a noun after them; predicative adjectives generally don’t.

"Department-wide" is (acting as) an adjective. "Changes" is a plural noun. "Suggested" is the past participle of the verb "suggest".
Suggested is not a verb in the past tense, but a past participle. It’s a reduced relative clause, “changes [which were] suggested”.
