Webinar | Is Your Institution Ready for ERP Takeoff?

This webinar is a part of the EDUCAUSE Industry Insights series.

Many institutions are considering replacing or improving their Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system(s), including Student, Human Resources, and Finance/Budget. At the same time, software 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.

Institutions benefit most from developing an ERP roadmap when they also examine ERP readiness in key areas such as budget planning, business process review, change management, data management, governance and leadership, and resources and staffing. It is important to focus attention on ERP readiness that can help higher education institutions leverage their strengths and prepare for challenges as they begin their once-in-a-generation journey to ERP transformation.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Understand where your institution is in its ERP journey.
  • Understand the elements of an assessment of ERP readiness for change.
  • Consider if your institution is ready for ERP transformation.
  • Address specific topics or questions that the audience would like us to discuss.
