## Summary

Northern Gas Networks Limited is renewing its SAP Cloud Platform Enterprise Agreement to maintain access to cloud-based services supporting critical business systems and applications. The agreement covers cloud credits, platform services, enterprise support and related SAP cloud capabilities, delivered on a consumption basis. These services support the organisation’s operational and business functions and keep systems integrated with its existing SAP environment. The requirement is for software supply and associated cloud services, rather than a new standalone system. The delivery locations are in the North East and Yorkshire and the Humber. Northern Gas Networks, a gas network utility, is the buying organisation.

The procurement is complete and was directly awarded to SAP (UK) Limited. The award is recorded as pending, with a scheduled signature date of 15 October 2026. The stated contract period runs from 13 May 2026 to 12 May 2027, while the award period is recorded as 15 October 2026 to 12 May 2027. The contract value is £671,450 excluding VAT (£805,740 including VAT). There was one lot. Northern Gas Networks used a direct award, citing technical interoperability with its existing SAP environment and the need to avoid costly reconfiguration, redevelopment, migration and disruption. The stated basis was that competition was absent for technical reasons and SAP was the only supplier capable of providing the services within that environment.

This award demonstrates demand for continued SAP cloud capability that works within Northern Gas Networks’ established SAP estate. A credible supplier for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide cloud credits, platform services and enterprise support compatible with SAP HANA and the buyer’s existing cloud platforms, applications, data flows and business processes. The buyer’s rationale makes continuity and technical interoperability central: a competing solution would need to address the substantial integration, migration and service-change risks associated with replacing the incumbent environment. Suppliers without the ability to support SAP-integrated critical operational and business systems are unlikely to be well placed. The award also shows that the requirement was met through a direct award to SAP rather than competition, on technical grounds.

## Notice

Renewal of Northern Gas Networks' SAP Cloud Platform Enterprise Agreement (CPEA) for the provision of cloud-based services supporting critical business systems and applications. The agreement provides access to SAP cloud services through a consumption-based model, including cloud credits, platform services, enterprise support and associated SAP cloud capabilities. The services support key operational and business functions and maintain continuity of systems integrated with Northern Gas Networks' existing SAP environment. The contract will be awarded to SAP (UK) Limited and covers the period from 13 May 2026 to 12 May 2027. Estimated contract value: PS671,450 excluding VAT.

### Procurement Information

Northern Gas Networks has made significant investment in SAP technologies, including SAP HANA and associated SAP cloud platforms, which underpin a number of critical operational and business systems. The SAP Cloud Platform Enterprise Agreement is intrinsically linked to Northern Gas Networks' existing SAP environment and supports integrated applications, data flows and business processes across the organisation. Procuring an alternative solution would require substantial reconfiguration, redevelopment of interfaces, migration of services and replacement of existing integrations, resulting in significant cost, disruption and implementation risk. Due to the technical interoperability requirements of the existing SAP estate and the need to maintain continuity of critical business services, competition is absent for technical reasons and SAP (UK) Limited is the only supplier capable of providing the required services within the existing environment.
