### Epicor Names Indian American Tech Leader Vaibhav Vohra as New CEO
Epicor, the Austin, Texas-based enterprise software company, has appointed Indian American technology executive Vaibhav Vohra as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective October 1. Vohra will succeed Steve Murphy, who is set to step down as CEO at the end of Epicor’s fiscal year on September 30. Murphy will continue to serve on Epicor’s Board of Directors following the leadership transition. The appointment is the result of a planned succession process led by the company’s Board of Directors. Epicor began preparing for the transition when Vohra was appointed President in October 2024. The company’s board said Vohra has extensive experience in enterprise software and is well positioned to lead Epicor through its next stage of growth. Vohra joined Epicor in 2021 as Chief Product Officer and has since taken on increasingly senior responsibilities. He most recently served as President and Chief Product and Technology Officer, overseeing key areas of the company’s technology and product operations. During his tenure, Vohra has played a central role in shaping Epicor’s product strategy, development, management and design. He has also been closely involved in advancing the company’s cloud, artificial intelligence and data supply chain strategy. Before joining Epicor, Vohra built and expanded technology businesses through leadership roles at companies including Gecko Robotics and SAP. His experience spans product development, enterprise technology and digital transformation, areas that are increasingly important to Epicor’s growth strategy. Vohra said he was honored to lead the company as it enters what he described as a new era of transformation in enterprise software. He also highlighted the importance of Epicor’s employees, customers and partners as the company continues to evolve. Under Steve Murphy’s leadership, Epicor strengthened its position as a software-as-a-service provider focused on industry-specific enterprise resource planning solutions. The company accelerated its transition toward a cloud-first business model during Murphy’s tenure. Epicor also expanded its capabilities through continued product innovation and strategic acquisitions. The company has now surpassed $1 billion in annual recurring revenue, according to its announcement. Murphy said the leadership transition comes at an appropriate time because the company is performing well and has a clear strategy for its future. He also credited Vohra with playing an important role in shaping Epicor’s product and technology direction. The incoming CEO brings a strong technical and academic background to the position. Vohra holds an MBA from the UCLA Anderson School of Management and a master’s degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Southern California. He also earned a bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from Washington University in St. Louis. His appointment comes at a time when enterprise software companies are rapidly integrating artificial intelligence into their products and services. Epicor has increasingly emphasized cloud technology, AI capabilities and data-driven tools as businesses seek more automated and intelligent enterprise systems. Vohra’s background in product and technology leadership could therefore play an important role in determining how Epicor develops its next generation of software solutions. The planned succession also provides continuity, as Vohra has already spent several years helping shape the company’s technology and product strategy. With Murphy remaining on the board, Epicor will retain his experience while placing day-to-day leadership in the hands of a technology executive who has been closely involved with the company’s transformation. The appointment positions Vohra to lead Epicor through its next phase as demand for cloud-based enterprise software and AI-powered business tools continues to grow.
