Budget funding for the federal government’s common enterprise resource planning system known as GovERP has been laid bare for the first time, as the overhaul enters its fifth year with little to show.
Secrecy has surrounded the cost of the project that will replace several existing SAP enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in use at five shared services hubs with a single across-government platform for the past two years.
When up-and-running, the new system had been expected to eventually be used by around 130,000 public servants from 100 agencies, with only Defence using a separate SAP S/4 HANA ERP system being developed at a cost of more than $1 billion.
