Sungard, parent of Sungard Bi-Tech the company behind our ERP system IFAS, has announced plans to acquire Collegis, Inc.
Collegis is a leading independent provider of information technology services to the higher education sector. Collegis offers a comprehensive set of solutions to meet the administrative and academic technology needs of colleges and universities, including technology management, ERP implementation, network management, strategic planning, instructional technology, online and academic services and resource development.
The interesting factor here, is that Collegis is a company who helps select and deploy ERP systems. Will they continue to suggest ERP systems outside of Sungard? Perhaps this is part of a strategy to better assist with deployment of IFAS and recently acquired Higher Ed ERP vendor SCT.
Many of us have been wondering what Sungard's strategy will be with IFAS and SCT Banner Products.
