COTC Strategic Planning
COTC currently uses the Ellucian ERP technology stack on premise. Ellucian is changing its strategy to be cloud only. This will be more expensive than the current solution. An evaluation of the whole ERP ecosystem will have to be done and compared to the cloud offering or other alternatives along with negotiation of the costs.
