Notice Information
Notice Title
SAP Licence renewal
Notice Description
SAP provide a suite of Services to Northern Gas Networks to optimise the ability to capture regulatory and non-regulatory data via on-premises /cloud software and applications. A variety of different Cloud services are allocated to NGN these are measured on a User, Session, Tennant, Resources and recurring basis. These are reviewed annually and volumes change according to business needs.
Procurement Information
NGN have invested heavily in SAP Hana and licences to optimise its ability to capture regulatory and non regulatory data via on-premise/cloud software and applications. If NGN did not extend these licenses then the risk would be to lose access to key critical business applications like SuccessFactors (NGN&Me) and SCP (the platform for the E&R work app, the Dispatch app etc). If NGN were to look at re-implementation of new technology, infrastructure and middleware, plus integration with our backend ERP, there could be loss of access to the E&R work app and the Dispatch app which could pose a serious risk to life and property, and to NGNs ability to fulfil Regulatory Licence Conditions.
