Globalization, higher quality, international reputation, accountability and digital transformation, are challenges that universities in Latin America are facing. Information Systems (IS) play an important role to achieve these goals, because they ensure academic, management and research processes. There is little research to identify the is that have an impact on rankings. The investigation results reveal that the implementation of R&D and innovation Management Systems, Data Warehouse, Decision Support Systems (DSS/EIS) and Portal (Intranet) help universities to have a better position in international rankings.
