Representatives of the HESS Consortium and Moran Technology Consulting (Moran) recently discussed higher education’s evolving need to review their Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions for potential replacement. Many institutions are evaluating the possibility of replacing or improving their ERP ecosystem, including Student, Human Resources, and Finance Information Systems. In parallel, vendors are emphasizing Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms that provide enhanced applications and capabilities, especially in automation, workflow, data analytics, integrations, self-service, and much more.
Moran has partnered with 100+ institutions seeking to understand their current ERP, the vendor marketplace, and their best options for moving forward. Institutions benefit most from conducting ERP roadmap projects when they also examine ERP readiness in key areas such as budget planning, business review, change management, data management, governance and leadership, and resources and staffing. Providing focused, informed attention to ERP readiness can help higher education institutions leverage their strengths and prepare for challenges, as they begin their journey to ERP transformation.
