In this episode, we dive into the often-overlooked challenge of technology system integration during university mergers. Drawing on ListEdTech's extensive database and industry insights from ERP Today and EdTech Magazine, we explore why larger institutions' systems almost always prevail, thanks to their scalability and robust infrastructure. We discuss how pre-merger alignment can smooth the transition, why legacy systems from smaller entities rarely survive—even when newly upgraded—and how mergers create a rare opportunity to modernize IT infrastructure and renegotiate vendor contracts. Join us as we unpack the high-stakes technology decisions that shape operational efficiency and set the stage for long-term institutional success.
