Oracle cloud deployed

KARACHI: Sardar Bahadur Khan Women’s University (SBKWU), Balochistan, is deploying Oracle Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Cloud and Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud, a statement said.

This technology would enable the university to provide employees with real-time access to critical information for improving the efficiency and consistency of the planning and budgeting processes.

After deploying the first phase of the Oracle Cloud Applications, university staff now has a comprehensive, end-to-end view of financial performance across the campus - from planning and budgeting through to reporting.

The second phase of the project, which sees the implementation of Oracle PeopleSoft Campus Solutions is in process and will be completed by early next year, which can help improve service to students, faculty, and staff—including enhanced student admissions and registration, as well as simplified advising and financial aid.

The university also plans to expand mobile self-service capabilities. SBKWU Vice Chancellor Rukhsana Jabeen said, “This new cloud platform has an important role to play as we continually seek to optimise our processes, improve financial efficiency and better utilise available resources.”
