This decision was not easily made. Our Executive Cabinet, after much study and debate, made the decision that a “single-vendor” enterprise information system was the best solution for UNM’s information needs. In simple terms this meant dealing with a vendor that can provide an integrated Finance, Student, Financial Aid, Human Resources and Advancement package of software. That narrowed the field of potential vendors significantly to Sungard SCT, Oracle, PeopleSoft and several others. Within that group, Sungard SCT stood out as the only company focused primarily on the higher education market. Several other universities within the state were also moving towards Sungard SCT as their vendor of choice. Sungard SCT was selected for its ability to deliver a comprehensive enterprise suite of software that has been developed for the special needs of higher education.
