Frequently Asked Questions

The new system is built on the Oracle Cloud platform, and it will replace the functionality currently provided by the Banner system such as personnel records, time entry, payroll, financial transactions, and grants/research management. In addition to Banner functionality, other administrative systems are being reviewed for possible replacement by Oracle Cloud.  

The university is expected to complete its migration to the new system, Govs Suite, in multiple stages. The first stage, Enterprise Resource Planning/Finance (ERP) will Go-Live July 1, 2025. Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) will Go-Live, September 1, 2025. Lastly Human Capital Management (HCM) will Go-Live October 1, 2025. Persons who currently work within the Banner and other administrative systems will see many of their day-to-day functions transition to Oracle Cloud. More information will be coming about the functions available to all faculty and staff as we learn more about the Oracle Cloud software.
