Notice Information
Notice Title
SAP Cloud Platform Enterprise
Notice Description
SAP CPEA (CPEA stands for Cloud Platform Enterprise Agreement.) is a consumption-based pricing model. It lets customers buy, consume, and pay based on their use (with an upfront commitment.) It is a flexible subscription that permits access to a wide range of SAP BTP services. Instead of paying for each service separately, credits are purchased in advance and used as needed across different services. Customers pay for what they consume. NGN is looking to extend this service with SAP.
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. NGN intend to expand the scope of their SAP licencing model to deliver key GD2 and GD3 promises. Should NGN look to other suppliers to procure similar software then we would need to invest significantly to replicate the infrastructure already built. NGN need to progress with this contract as without it we will 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). This contract provides NGN with security of supply around these critical systems. With our current architecture the optimal approach would be to continue using SAP products, as the alternative would be a re-implementation of new technology, infrastructure and middleware, plus integration with our backend ERP.
