Case Study: Universidad Ricardo Palma achieves 50% profit increase with Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP

Universidad Ricardo Palma Lifts Profits by 50% With Oracle

Universidad Ricardo Palma, a 51‑year‑old Peruvian university with about 15,000 students, launched a digital transformation to improve service and operations—an effort accelerated by the pandemic. The institution needed real‑time visibility and automation across payments, procurement, budgeting and cost control to replace slow, manual processes and support remote operations.

The university implemented Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP and Oracle Cloud EPM (planning and budgeting), choosing Oracle for its experience, ongoing updates, and best‑practice approach. As a result, programs that had been running at a loss turned profitable, overall profits rose by 50%, purchase requisition time fell from 15 days to about 2 hours, and the university maintained uninterrupted operations during COVID.
