Modernising ERP Systems in Higher Education - Embracing Change

Higher education is undergoing significant changes, with digital technologies becoming essential for learning and research, especially accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Institutions now face new demands, requiring agility and efficiency despite budget and technology constraints.

Modernising Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems has become a strategic priority.

Outdated ERP systems hinder innovation, growth, and the delivery of quality education.
