The education industry is in disruption, with remote learning thrust to the forefront and the long-term future of conventional, on-campus programs not yet known. Rimini Street independent, third-party support helps educators save considerable IT funds which can then be used to continue advancing the educational mission through investment in digital transformation.
Keeping education standards high while reducing overall spend can be challenging. Traditional student and enrollment models — and delivery systems — continue to shift, making it increasingly important to manage institutional IT investments in learning equitably and effectively. Rimini Street enterprise software services and application support expertise for the education industry can substantially reduce costs, free up resources, and help institutions from K-12 to higher education continue to focus on student achievement and educational attainment.
Rimini Street education clients avoid expensive and disruptive upgrades to mission-critical applications through guaranteed support of the current ERP implementation for at least 15 years. Engineer-led support for custom code and tailored tax, legal, and regulatory updates are included at no additional cost, so more budget dollars and IT staff can be focused on helping students achieve academic excellence.
Complacency and reactive efforts can leave institutions behind in today’s challenging and ever-evolving education marketplace. Flexibility, adaptability, and strategic planning will be led by IT, and maximizing innovation opportunities is key to success. Rimini Street helps education clients liberate resources for higher-purpose technology endeavors through expert, efficient application support. To date, many global educational institutions from K-12 to higher education have directed savings from Rimini Street third-party support to essential strategic initiatives.

Joel Gibbons IT Director
