AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Epicor, a global leader in industry-specific enterprise software, today announced that Vaibhav Vohra will become Chief Executive Officer effective October 1, 2026. Vaibhav succeeds Steve Murphy, who will step down as CEO at the close of Epicor's fiscal year, September 30, 2026, and will continue to serve on the company’s Board of Directors.

The transition is the outcome of a planned succession process led by Epicor's Board of Directors, beginning with Vaibhav’s appointment to President in October 2024, and reflects the company's confidence in its strategy and trajectory. Steve and Vaibhav will work closely together to ensure an orderly transition and business continuity for Epicor's customers, employees and partners.

“Vaibhav is a proven leader with deep experience in enterprise software, and I am confident he is the right person to lead Epicor into its next chapter,” said Jeff Hawn, Chair of Epicor's Board of Directors. “On behalf of the Board, I want to thank Steve for his outstanding leadership at Epicor and the strong foundation he leaves in place.”

Vaibhav joined Epicor in 2021 as Chief Product Officer and has since taken on roles of increasing responsibility, most recently as President and Chief Product and Technology Officer. In that time, he has led Epicor's product strategy, development, management and design, and has been central to advancing the company's cloud, AI and data supply chain vision. Before Epicor, he built and scaled technology businesses, including as a product leader at Gecko Robotics, and held executive product roles at SAP.

“I am honored to lead Epicor as we enter a new era of transformation across enterprise software. Over the past five years, I’ve seen firsthand the people, customers, and partners that make this company special. Our focus remains on helping our customers grow and succeed in an increasingly dynamic world,” said Vaibhav Vohra. “I want to thank Steve for his exceptional leadership and for all he has done to position Epicor for continued success.”

Under Steve’s guidance, Epicor strengthened its position as a SaaS leader in industry-focused ERP, accelerated its transition to a cloud-first business, expanded its capabilities through sustained innovation and strategic acquisitions, and surpassed $1 billion in annual recurring revenue.

“It has been a privilege to serve Epicor and the talented team behind it,” said Steve Murphy. “We've sharpened Epicor's focus on the customers and industries we serve, and I'm proud of what this team has accomplished. With the company performing well and a clear strategy in place, this is the right time for a change. Vaibhav has been instrumental in shaping our product and technology direction, and he is the right leader for what comes next.”
