All about... Finance Transformation

What is the Finance Transformation?

Our Finance Transformation will standardise and simplify our processes. We are upgrading to a new SAP finance system, which will replace multiple finance systems that do not currently talk to each other.

Why are we doing it?

Our finance systems are increasingly inefficient, with too many manual and disparate processes and data. This transformation will provide consistent processes, trusted financial data and a single unified source, making work easier for you and for us.

When is this happening?

As we have moved through the recovery stage of this incident, we have been working through how to safely deliver our finance transformation with minimum disruption to suppliers. We have been exploring later go-live dates than 7 July 2025, and wanted to let you know that we have agreed a date for moving to our new finance system, SAP 4/HANA, in early October.

How will it affect me?

How you are affected will depend on the current arrangements we have with you, and different suppliers will be affected in different ways.  We will share more information soon about the changes and whether there are any actions you need to take.

How can I find out more?

Please keep an eye on these pages and on our Supplier Newsletter for updates - and please do get in touch using the details below if you have any questions.
