Description

NIPS are currently using SAP ERP ECC6 software for the COMPASS System (NIPS HR/Payroll/Rostering/Training system for Operational Staff). NIPS already own the required SAP ERP ECC6 licences as they were purchased as part of the original contract. SAP Enterprise Support is required to download future software releases, software support patches relating to legislative changes in Payroll/HR and for technical support. Without this support we cannot operate and maintain this system to be fit for purpose.
