Since the beginning of the third millennium, Morocco has implemented a series of reforms aimed at improving public management by establishing a new results-oriented culture across all sectors. The higher education sector has been affected by these reforms. Computerized tools have been an essential element to accompany these reforms. Through this communication, we wish to explore the information systems used by Moroccan universities and their role in the institutionalization of these reforms. It demonstrates through the results that these tools constitute a key factor for the success of the reforms.
