About

University of Essex awarded a contract to Arribatec UK Ltd for consultancy services to support the migration of its Unit4 finance system to a SaaS solution and the migration of desktop users to the web version.

The contract, valued at AUD 114,207.5, addresses the University's need for an implementation partner due to the high number of customisations and complex integrations in its current Unit4 environment.

The University also purchased the Research Cost Pricing (RCP) Module and Income Manager Module, which are not supported in the SaaS environment due to customisation; the University plans to replace Income Manager with standard web functionality and has not decided on a replacement for RCP.
