University of Canterbury finally embarks on ERP replacement
Summary
The University of Canterbury is aiming to implement a modern SaaS ERP system for finance and human capital management. The impending procurement comes nearly a year after the university first notified the market it was looking to upgrade its existing Oracle-based people, culture and finance systems with a modern cloud-based platform. In an advanced notice posted today, the university said it was seeking to transform its enterprise business capabilities and ways of working, improve corporate services, provide digital excellence, value, best practice processes and common data models. "UC’s vision is that digital will be a strategic enabler to deliver relevant, distinctive and world class learning, research, and collaborative experiences to a global audience." Any selected solution should meet “True SaaS” criteria by supporting a single codebase across all customers, i other words, multi-tenancy.
