Equinor is undergoing a large digital transformation that will substantially change core business processes and digital tools. One of the first key projects that will impact our suppliers is the Establish & Manage Agreements project, also known as "EMA". The EMA solution features the integration of SAP Ariba and Icertis and will replace our current sourcing and contract management system. The solution will standardise and improve collaboration.
To ensure our suppliers know how to use the new system, we will provide a step-by-step guide on this page. The document will be uploaded here end of October 2024. As the change will be rolled out in waves, based on category business units, suppliers connected to each roll-out will receive the necessary communications to prepare for the change when the time comes.
Please note: During this transition, some suppliers will be invited to interact in SAP Business Network and some may not experience this change.
Our e-Sourcing portal is a web-based tool that covers the e-Sourcing and Manage agreement process for strategic contracts. As described above, the digital transformation Equinor is undergoing will affect when certain suppliers will transition from the existing e-sourcing portal (Contiki system) to the new solution, SAP Ariba and Icertis. Please note: Once suppliers are directed to use the new solution, communications will be managed there moving forward.
Tenderers log on to collect published enquiry documents, perform Q&A sessions/clarifications and upload bid documents. Contiki e-Sourcing portal are also used in Framework agreement execution phase, for collaboration related to documents and communication.
The e-Sourcing portal is a web portal that enables Equinor and Tenderers/suppliers to communicate and collaborate online.

Our goal is to achieve touchless digital interaction between Equinor and the suppliers with electronic exchange of business transactions.
Benefits of implementing B2B exchange of business data:
In order to achieve a more structured and digitised transaction flow, both sender and receiver must be able to produce, receive and utilise the structured and digitised information in their respective ERP systems.
Equinor’s preferred method for digital interaction via B2B transaction is exchange of structured business information using UBL-based messaging over a 4-corner model according to the Peppol BIS specifications via Peppol eDelivery infrastructure.
Equinor sends:
Equinor receives:
