| Oracle | Legacy | Oracle Cloud ERP | ERP Financial | ERP Financial Management | Huron Consulting Group | 2018 | 2020 |
In 2018, UCLA implemented Oracle Cloud ERP under the Ascend program to modernize its administrative finance applications. The initiative targeted administrative financial systems developed in the 1980s on a mainframe platform that had struggled to support the University’s growing business complexity.
Oracle Cloud ERP was deployed as an ERP Financial solution, leveraging the Oracle Applications Cloud suite to support core finance, financial project management, procurement, budget, and post-award research administration capabilities. The implementation followed a cloud-native architecture with Oracle Applications Cloud periodic updates and mobile extensibility to extend desktop workflows to smartphones and tablets.
Functional configuration focused on finance modules, project accounting, procurement workflows, budgeting controls, and research administration flows to enable standardized business processes and up-to-the-minute reporting. Integration and technical execution were supported by Huron Consulting Group, which provided functional and technical expertise for system integration, business process mapping, and optimization.
Operational coverage expanded across university administrative functions including finance, procurement, research administration, and budget offices, governed through the Ascend program structure. UCLA retained overall leadership of Ascend and staffed each work stream with subject-matter experts to advise configuration and design future-state business processes, while Huron Consulting Group led project management, change management, and training activities.
The implementation aimed to achieve increased efficiencies, streamlined business processes, effective reporting, and compliance with regulatory requirements, while providing flexibility and adaptability so staff can focus on UCLA’s core mission. Oracle Cloud ERP was positioned to deliver robust reporting capabilities and data currency to support data-driven decisions across administrative business functions.

In 2016, UCLA implemented 12Twenty Career Center Software in the Recruiting category to support campus career services and employer engagement. The initiative centralized student and alumni job and internship workflows, and established the platform as a focal point for employer outreach and event coordination across career advising teams.
UCLA configured 12Twenty Career Center Software to deliver core recruiting capabilities including employer profiles, job and internship posting management, event and interview scheduling, student profile and résumé management, and advising dashboards for trend analysis. The configuration emphasized searchability and structured employer intelligence so advisers could access hiring timelines and compensation indicators directly within the application.
Operational scope covered career services, employer relations, and advising staff on the main campus, with the platform used to standardize posting and event workflows. The implementation framed the application as the primary repository of employer data and candidate-facing content, reducing the need for ad hoc data lookups during student advising sessions.
Governance centered on role based access controls for advisers and employer liaisons, and process changes that routed employer engagement and interview scheduling through the 12Twenty platform. UCLA reported that the information readily available in 12Twenty saved time and enabled career advisers to focus conversations on deeper questions rather than basic salary averages or timeline queries.

| IBM | Legacy | IBM Maximo | Enterprise Asset Management | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2014 | 2015 |
In 2014, UCLA deployed IBM Maximo as its campus asset management platform. The IBM Maximo implementation is surfaced through a web client at maximo.ucla.edu, establishing a centralized entry point for facilities and operations staff under the Enterprise Asset Management category. The deployment positions IBM Maximo to support core business functions including facilities management, maintenance operations, utilities oversight, and campus infrastructure stewardship across UCLA sites.
Configuration and functional scope center on standard Enterprise Asset Management capabilities. UCLA’s IBM Maximo instance is described by asset registry and lifecycle management, work order management and scheduling, preventive maintenance planning, inventory and spare parts tracking, and service request intake for campus end users. These modules are implemented to standardize asset data, orchestrate maintenance workflows, and formalize maintenance planning and execution processes.
Operationally the deployment is delivered as a web client accessible via UCLA’s domain, indicating campus IT hosting and centralized access control for facilities and maintenance teams. Governance emphasis is on work order lifecycle workflows, asset ownership and custodianship rules, and role based access for maintenance technicians, facilities planners, and operations managers. The implementation narrative reflects IBM Maximo serving as UCLA’s enterprise asset management backbone for campus facilities and maintenance functions.
