Alpharetta, GA – November 6, 2009 - Cajana announced today the release of their single-instance multi-institution (SIMI) model for Oracle|PeopleSoft Financials for higher-education institutions. The model establishes a baseline configuration that most institutions can adopt with little modification, thereby greatly reducing the cost, time, and risk of acquiring PeopleSoft Financials for these schools. “In our 10-year history, we have hosted PeopleSoft environments for over 100 higher education institutions,” said Brian Ellis, Cajana’s CEO. “That experience allowed us to identify common elements of financial strategy, structure, and operation for higher education, which we have incorporated into our SIMI model.” “We then applied our deep knowledge of PeopleSoft Financials, gleaned over many implementations, upgrades, and other projects, to build a foundation that works equally well for a single institution or multiple institutions sharing a single environment,” Ellis continued. “We recognize that shared services and consortia are ways in which small colleges can share the risk and cost associated with an ERP implementation so that everyone benefits from leading technology. Our SIMI model for PeopleSoft Financials is fully supportive of a shared-application structure.” The SIMI model is available as part of a hosted, license-financed solution in its world-class data center in Sioux Falls, SD, for a monthly cost. Cajana estimates that this model can reduce the cost and time of an implementation by 50%-70% over the traditional implementation model. Cajana is also currently finalizing SIMI models for Oracle|PeopleSoft Human Capital Management and Oracle|PeopleSoft Campus Solutions.
