MILWAUKEE (AP) – The University of Wisconsin System has stopped implementing new payroll software that cost $26 million in tax and tuition funds, the system’s executive vice president says.
Don Mash told the state Assembly Committee on Colleges and Universities that the software, which was made by Lawson, may be scrapped altogether in favor of software made by Oracle or the 30-year-old homegrown software the system now uses.
“We couldn’t make this work,” he told the panel Tuesday. “We’ve got to dig ourselves out of this hole.”
