Abstract:
Abstract Universities worldwide are impressing adoption of computers in their operation and delivery of services. Enterprise Resource Planning systems (ERP) are among Management Information Systems (MIS) preferred for adoption. The adoption ensures optimization of ICT resources. JKUAT has implemented Sage ACCPAC ERP and in the process learnt lessons that can be shared. Through a survey conducted across the University, this paper sought to examine the effectiveness and correctness of computer usage at JKUAT. The findings of the survey pointed to the need of formulating a computer usage policy (CUP). The paper outlines the implications of operating without a computer usage policy. Key words: Enterprise resource planning, information and communication technology, computer usage policy, management information system
