Abstract :
This research highlights the potential for implementing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in higher education institutions, recommends some best practices from Oracle solutions for universities, and discusses the situation of ERP in developing countries accompanied with a case study from a university in a developing country. The analysis indicates that ERP is beneficial for higher education institutions as a mean of replacing legacy administration and management systems. However, ERP could be a risky and challenging project when implemented in developing countries.
