The move supports the modernisation of HMRC\u2019s Enterprise Tax Management Platform (ETMP) and represents a significant investment to protect and enhance the future service to customers.<\/p>\n<p>ETMP is the strategic technology backbone of HMRC\u2019s tax accounting and payment capability. It supports over 45 tax regimes and is used daily by tens of thousands of staff to manage over \u00a3800 billion in tax revenue each year.<\/p>\n<p>By moving to the cloud with RISE with SAP, HMRC will replace its legacy systems and simplify its technology landscape. This collaboration will give HMRC employees better access to analytical data and an improved user interface, which will provide greater confidence in the real time analysis and reporting. The platform will support a more responsive and transparent experience for taxpayers.<\/p>\n<p>As part of its RISE with SAP deployment, HMRC will implement SAP S\/4HANA Cloud, SAP\u2019s UK\u00a0Sovereign Cloud, SAP Business Technology Platform and SAP AI Capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>The availability of SAP\u2019s UK sovereign cloud capabilities for the majority of its SAP solutions provides organisations with localised cloud services tailored to specific requirements, meeting the highest standards of data residency, security and compliance, and creating a secure foundation for future innovation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLarge-scale public systems like those delivered by HMRC must operate reliably at national scale while adapting to changing demands\u201d, said <strong>Leila Romane, Managing Director UKI at SAP.<\/strong> \u201cBy modernising one of the UK\u2019s most important platforms and hosting it on a UK sovereign cloud, we are helping to strengthen the resilience, security and sustainability of critical national infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The deal also supports the government\u2019s broader AI ambitions. Together, SAP and HMRC will work on defining new AI capabilities aimed at improving taxpayer experiences, surfacing insights faster, automating processes and enhancing decision-making across tax administration.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about RISE with SAP, please visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/sap.com\/\">SAP.com.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>###<\/p>\n<p><strong>About SAP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As\u202fa global leader in enterprise applications and business AI, SAP (NYSE:SAP)\u202fstands at the\u202fnexus\u202fof business and technology.
