student population by about one-third and bring
fundamental changes to our administration systems. The
University decided to take the opportunity to overhaul its
information infrastructure by implementing a full-fledged
ERP system. This project is brand-named “Teamu

st” which
stands for university information systems transformation.
Phase I of the project encompasses the three functional
areas of student, finance and human resources.
The University has selected Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise
as the ERP solution and Oracle Consulting Services as the
partner to provide the implementation services.
