REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., May 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The University of Pittsburgh, a leading higher-education institution, has selected Oracle Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Cloud to support its mission to advance teaching, research and public service. With Oracle ERP Cloud, the University of Pittsburgh will be able to improve operational efficiency, modernize its business and finance operations and gain deeper organization insight.

Founded in 1787, the University of Pittsburgh is one of the oldest higher education institutions in the United States and attracts more than 34,000 students each year. To improve the productivity of its finance and operations team, the university needed to replace its legacy financial management system with a modern cloud solution that would improve agility and future-proof the organization.

"Technology plays a strategic role in the university's success and the achievement of our mission.

"With Oracle ERP Cloud we'll be able to manage finance, HR and student data on the same platform, creating a single source of truth that improves efficiency and organizational insights."

Oracle ERP Cloud helps organizations of all sizes, across multiple industries, increase productivity, lower costs and improve controls.

The University of Pittsburgh also has plans to implement Oracle Human Capital Management (HCM) Cloud for core HR processes, including payroll, time and attendance, and talent acquisition. The University's unified ERP and HCM solution will enhance organizational alignment and business insight.

"Technology is an incredible enabler that can help organizations like the University of Pittsburgh not just streamline processes, but also improve engagement and transform existing business processes and models," said Rondy Ng, senior vice president of applications development at Oracle.
