## Summary

The Crown Commercial Service is initiating a procurement process titled "Tax Platform Major Change" under the industry category of Software programming and consultancy services. This planned procurement is aimed at establishing a multi-supplier framework to cater exclusively to HMRC’s requirements for major code changes over a maximum term of four years, with an indicative value of £400 million. A market engagement session is scheduled for 19th July 2022, with expressions of interest to be sent via email to the Crown Commercial Service by 11th August 2022.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses experienced in IT services and software development, especially those skilled in SAP’s Tax & Revenue Management module. Suppliers with the capability to invest in UK operations and those with a proven track record in similar projects will be well-suited to compete in this framework. Participation in the anticipated Open procedure may lead to substantial growth as HMRC looks to enhance its Enterprise Tax Management Platform through competitive solutions.

## Notice

Crown Commercial Service, as the Authority, intends to put in place a multi-supplier framework agreement for the provision of major code changes to HMRC's Tax Platform. As such, this framework is only available for use by HMRC and not to any other UK public sector body. This will be a single lot framework and is aiming to achieve a pool of suppliers with demonstrable global expertise in SAP's Tax & Revenue Management (TRM) module who have, or are willing to, invest in UK capability. HMRC's Enterprise Tax Management Platform (ETMP) currently uses a highly customised version of the SAP ECC6.0 commercial software package and it's HMRC's intention to introduce a Multi-Supplier Framework to promote competition in delivering change. The scope of the Framework includes 'major changes' only. Smaller changes are out of scope. The term of the framework is a maximum of four years.
