The brief

Enterprise Resource Planning Solution Software package .

In the context of Salford City Council and Liverpool City Council having decided to co-operate in the area of financial systems software and infrastructure with a view to sharing and saving costs.

The contract relates to the acquisition by Salford City Council of enhancements to the Enterprise Resource Planning licence and infrastructure platform provided by SAP UK Limited, both on a perpetual and fixed term contract basis.

The creation of a SAP public sector collaboration will sustain a system support model and enable the exploitation of technology opportunities, with Salford City Council able to utilise the SAP expertise it has acquired over the past decade.

As part of the ongoing development of the system, new technology has been introduced to support the requirements of the Council’s transformation programme in order to make further efficiencies in back office operations and to facilitate cooperation with other public sector authorities which operate on the same platform.

The SAP Hana platform provides a real time in memory data cloud based solution for the hosting of SAP based solutions delivered by Salford City Council as the lead authority supporting SAP S/4 applications.

The platform will provide a single database instance serving multiple tenants in a virtualised cloud environment and will be able to be provided by the lead authority as the technical foundation of cooperation with other public sector authorities.

While the proposed contract will initially be undertaken in cooperation with Liverpool City Council, the expectation is that there will be cooperation with other public sector bodies on a maximum 5 year term (with co-operating parties all co-terminating).
