An investigation into the impact of enterprise systems adoption and implementation after the Higher Education Institutions After the Introduction of Funding Cuts

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the behaviour of Higher Education Institutions in relation to the adoption of Enterprise Systems after the changes in the funding regime. It can be argued that funding cuts is the significant change the industry has witnessed in recent past. Since Enterprise Systems is becoming the lifeblood of an organisation, we would like to investigate how Higher Education Institutions have embraced the usage and adoption of Enterprise Systems after the funding cuts. In order to accomplish this objective, we begin our research on how industries in general are responding to external changes. The discussion will then move towards the changes in Higher Education and its impact. By undertaking systematic review of literature, we will investigate the changes introduced by Higher Education Institutions in relation to the adoption of EnterpriseSystems
