Higher education is navigating a polycrisis – multiple crises converging into one greater than the sum of its parts. Funding pressures, regulatory shifts, and rising expectations are all coming together at one time to challenge every institution’s resilience.

Resilient institutions leverage highly customizable systems – solutions that can be tailored quickly and efficiently to fit evolving needs without requiring major IT intervention. This flexibility enables leadership to adjust and respond to changing circumstances quickly so that operations remain aligned with institutional goals rather than constrained by technological limitations.

Higher education is under intense pressure to do more with less. With budgets tighter than ever, colleges must find smarter ways to reduce costs without sacrificing functionality or the student experience.

With a rapidly evolving political landscape, rising pressure on financial aid systems, and new waves of uncertainty for students, colleges and universities are being called to lead with clarity, compassion, and agility.

Facing an end-of-life student information system (SIS) is daunting. As products like PowerCampus approach their final chapters, and as institutions determine that legacy homegrown systems no longer deliver the functionality, scalability, or security needed to support modern operations, more and more colleges and universities are facing the need to make critical decisions about the future of their SIS and ERP.
