- Yes
- How the planning service works
- SAP solution architects and project managers specialise in the planning and design of SAP cloud solutions. SAP structures its approach to SAP cloud implementations using the SAP Activate methodology. SAP Activate includes a series of proven accelerators that provides experienced practitioners with the capability to quickly extract and tailor tools and SAP Best Practices to plan and support SAP implementations. SAP Activate contains assets to enable and accelerate implementation projects such as configuration documents, test scripts and process diagrams describing the detailed processes of the pre-configured solution. These assets and accelerators are integrated with the implementation methodology and complement the generic assets and accelerators for project management. One of the biggest advantages of using SAP Activate is the inclusion of collective implementation experiences and lessons learnt from many customers and consultants. Within the SAP Activate methodology, SAP has included years of implementation knowledge across all deployment modes and project sizes.

Fighting climate change
Fighting Climate Change (196 words)
SAP is committed to a future sustainable world and acts as both an exemplar and enabler of sustainability. For the 16th consecutive year, SAP was named the Software Industry Leader in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index - https://www.sap.com/sustainability/our-approach.html. SAP is committed to fighting climate change by reducing carbon and other emissions. SAP became Carbon Neutral by 2023 and will be Net Zero by 2030.
On any G-Cloud Contract, SAP will create a Social Value Action plan in collaboration with the buyer. Progress will be reviewed, and the plan will be refreshed annually. For fighting climate change, we expect that this plan will include:
• supporting your journey to Net Zero by ensuring renewable energy is used in the data centres providing the services and that all services will be 100% carbon neutral from the first day of service.
• offer a workshop to the buyer’s team on the sustainability features of the product that has been purchased and / or the wider SAP suite of sustainability offerings such as the Sustainability Control Tower.
• Work with the buyer’s team to promote the free, high-quality learning about sustainability that is available and free to any member of the public on the Open SAP learning portal at https://learning.sap.com.Covid-19 recovery
On any G-Cloud Contract, SAP will create a Social Value Action plan in collaboration with the buyer. Progress will be reviewed, and the plan will be refreshed annually. To help local communities to manage and recover from the impact of COVID-19, SAP can support buyers in several areas. As part of the Social Value Action plan, SAP will:
• To support re-training and other return to work opportunities for those left unemployed by COVID-19, particularly new opportunities in high growth sectors. SAP will offer a range of free on-demand and facilitated training to communities served by the buyer. This will be delivered free using the SAP learning portal at https://learning.sap.com. Currently available courses include topics like Circular Economies, Opportunities from a Digitally Transformed Economy and New Work and Purpose.
• SAP offers buyers support in key areas for social value relating to COVID 19 Recovery – new ways of working to deliver services; support for the physical and mental health of people affected by COVID-19 and improved workplace conditions such as remote working and sustainable travel solutions. As part of the Social Value Action plan, we will offer a workshop to explain the support we can offer and add tasks to the plan where appropriate.Tackling economic inequality
There are two themes outlined in the guidance relating to this area of social value - Create new businesses, new jobs and new skills; and increase supply chain resilience and capacity.
With respect to skills, as part of the annual Social Value Action plan:
• SAP will offer a range of free on-demand and facilitated training to communities served by the buyer. This will be delivered free using the SAP Learning portal at https://learning.sap.com. Currently courses cover a range of in demand skills in the IT industry such as Artificial Intelligence, Analytics and Application Development. For these courses, where relevant, SAP will also provide access to technical platforms at no charge so that students may complete the practical learning components of each course.
With respect to increasing supply chain resilience and capacity, as part of the annual Social Value Action plan:
• SAP will offer to brief the buyer’s procurement and finance teams on the opportunities relating to the SAP Ariba Procurement offering. This could include on-boarding the buyer’s suppliers to the SAP Business Network, a €3.2TN marketplace for suppliers where they can grow their businesses. SAP Ariba Procurement also offers capabilities around supplier risk management to ensure that the buyer’s supply chain achieves the desired level of resilience. The guided buying capabilities of SAP Ariba Procurement also allow the buyer to make it easy for staff to support and comply with organisational social objectives, for example spending with sustainable enterprises or local small businesses. SAP will also share our learnings from 5 by 5 in ’25, an initiative designed to encourage organizations across industries to direct more of their addressable spend toward certified social-enterprise and diverse-business suppliers. https://news.sap.com/2020/10/sap-launches-55by25-purposeful-procurement/Equal opportunity
SAP is committed to being one of the most diverse and inclusive software companies in the world. We proactively promote diversity, inclusion, and social justice and work to ensure that our workforce reflects the gender parity and demographics of all the regions where we have employees. We make every effort to ensure that all stages of the employee lifecycle are inclusive to enable employee success. As part of the Social Value Action plan, SAP will propose a Social Innovation Workshop to explore areas of equal opportunity and look at how we approach diversity and inclusion to see how a shared approach with the buyer could help the buyer’s staff and communities that the buyer serves. For example, SAP supports the following organisations and initiatives:
Stemettes is an award-winning social enterprise working across the UK & Ireland and beyond to inspire and support young women and young non-binary people into Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths careers (known collectively as STEM).
Enactus UK – SAP is the Platinum technology partner for Enactus UK, giving access to one of the UK’s largest innovation and entrepreneur networks in the UK. Enactus allows teams of students all over the country to work together to find innovative solutions to social issues within their local and international communities;

They provide free tech innovation courses to schools, giving teachers ready-made education content, so young people from all backgrounds can develop computing and essential skills to create a brighter future through technology. Apps For Good partner with leading brands to keep their course content 100% free of charge to schools, as well as giving students the opportunity to directly benefit from their industry expertise.Wellbeing
As part of the Social Innovation Workshop described in the Equal Opportunity section, SAP will include the theme of ‘Wellbeing’ to review optional initiatives that can be added to the Social Value Action plan. For example:
• Innovation – SAP offers clients the ability to run innovation workshops on themes that are important to clients. This is often in collaboration with users and communities who can codesign and create a proof of concept of solutions that would address specific challenges and opportunities. We will also offer free training on innovation topics via our SAP Learning portal - https://learning.sap.com. Current courses include Intrapreneurship – Employee-driven Innovation.
• Employee and community pulse – SAP is a leading provider of solutions relating to personal wellbeing. We offer to share our learnings of what works well for different challenges and situations that clients wish to explore. We can share examples of how organisations have supported the physical and mental health of their workforce. A current example would be around working practices and return to work in a post COVID pandemic world.
• Self-service and a great user experience are key principles of SAP services. We will share insights learned from working with many public service organisations and the world’s most recognised brands on how digital services can bring people and communities together. These insights may then trigger actions that can be added to the Social Value Action plan.
