to Transform?

Moran helps higher education leaders build transformation readiness across people, processes, data, and digital identity before the implementation clock starts.

Don’t Wait to Prepare

Your institution is moving forward with an ERP transformation. There’s a lot to prepare from governance gaps to data quality concerns and change management demands, not to mention a complex identity and cybersecurity environment.

Don’t wait to address these when the implementation is underway. Moran partners with university leaders and their teams to design a clear, honest picture of institutional readiness and prioritize what needs to happen so you can get ahead of the risks that can derail even well-funded ERP projects.

How We Make It Happen

ERP readiness is not a single workstream. It requires parallel progress across several areas, and the earlier that work begins the less disruptive and costly it is to address.

Dimensions of ERP Readiness

  • Plan and Ensure Progress

    Establish your roadmap, executive support, staffing plan, and decision-making structures.

  • Prepare for Change

    Develop your OCM strategy, pursue business process redesign, and identify AI optimization opportunities ahead of implementation.

  • Cultivate Data Readiness

    Assess your data environment, address quality issues, and build internal conversion capability.

  • Ensure Digital Identity and Cybersecurity Readiness

    Build a mature identity and security program ready for the demands of transformation.

What We Deliver

  • A clear, prioritized readiness plan across all four dimensions

  • Risk identification and proactive mitigation before implementation begins

  • Organizational change management strategy and stakeholder engagement plan

  • Data readiness assessment and conversion preparation

  • Digital identity and cybersecurity readiness roadmap
