Higher education is becoming increasingly competitive both nationally and internationally, however, and the University faces stiff competition globally for overseas students and research funding. At the same time, more and more information is required for statutory reporting and attracting potential sponsors, and the University's array of legacy systems was proving inadequate for this new environment. A single, integrated system was required to overcome growing data quality and financial consolidation issues, and following a thorough tendering process starting in June 2005, SAP was selected. The finance, procurement, HR and payroll modules have been initially selected, and SAP will act as a 'Junction box' for a range of existing systems across the various university departments.
