The University of Sussex awarded a contract to Unit 4 Business Software Limited for the upgrade and migration of its Unit4 Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to Unit4's cloud services.

The contract, valued at £864,096, includes support and maintenance, e-invoicing functionality, contract management, and an option to migrate to Unit4's new partner for a research costing and pricing platform.

The migration was necessitated by Unit4's announcement on 17 October 2023 that it would cease maintenance and support for perpetual licenses and on-premises solutions after 31 December 2024, creating an urgent need to transition within a three-year period.
