| SAP | SAP ERP ECC 6.0 - Accounts Payable (AP) | SAP S/4 HANA - Accounts Payables | AP Automation | ERP | n/a | 2024 | 2024 |
In 2024 the Australian Federal Police implemented SAP S/4 HANA - Accounts Payables as its AP Automation solution. The deployment migrated accounts payable functionality from SAP ERP ECC 6.0 Accounts Payable and extended the AFPs Purchase to Pay Initiative that was established in July 2009.
The implementation emphasized automated invoice capture and lifecycle management, deploying a software scanning package capable of scanning, attaching and workflowing Accounts Payable invoices and credit memos. SAP S/4 HANA - Accounts Payables was configured to support attachment, authorisation and in‑system viewing of invoices and credit memos, and to process both paper invoices and electronic invoices uploaded via AFP developed upload facilities.
Architecturally the solution was designed to operate within the AFP ICT environment and to interoperate with SAP SRM 7.0 while consolidating transaction entry into a central Shared Services Centre in Canberra. Operational scope included centralised accounts payable processing for AFP business units, aligning AP transactions with procurement records and maintaining an audit trail for scanned invoice images as part of the SAP transaction record. Approximately 75,000 invoices processed in the 2008 2009 financial year framed the volume requirements for the SSC intake and processing workflows.
Governance and process redesign were explicit project objectives, with tender documentation calling for installation and maintenance responsibilities for the scanning package and for improved AP processing compliance and purchasing transparency. Expected benefits articulated in the procurement materials included greater transparency of purchasing, redesigned business processes, enhanced auditability through attached invoice images, and improved accounts payable compliance.

| SAP | SAP HCM (HR) | SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central | Core HR | HCM | n/a | 2024 | 2026 |
In 2024 the Australian Federal Police implemented SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central as its Core HR solution, initiating a structured shift from its existing SAP HCM (HR) footprint to a modern SAP HR architecture aligned with the AFP S/4HANA migration roadmap. The implementation positions SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central to serve centralized employee master data, organization management, and core HR recordkeeping, and it explicitly aligns HR architecture with the broader SAP S/4HANA upgrade planned to address SAP ECC 6 support expiry in 2027.
The deployment scope included configuration of Core HR functional areas commonly associated with Employee Central, with explicit focus on Personnel Administration, Organization Management, Time Recording, and payroll-related interfaces as referenced in the AFP request for quotation. Configuration emphasis incorporated business process optimisation in SAP Payroll workflows and personnel lifecycle management, reflecting the AFP requirement for HR and payroll functional analysts with ECC6 to S/4HANA upgrade experience.
Architecturally the work is being coordinated within the AFP ERP transformation program, integrating SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central with the planned SAP S/4HANA environment and associated HR payroll channels. Discovery activities incorporated formal business process mapping and documentation tools, the AFP listing SAP Signavio, ARIS, and Visio as part of the process analysis and requirements capture for end-to-end HR and payroll orchestration.
Governance and delivery were structured through a year-long discovery and roadmap development phase, with the AFP running an RFQ in April to May to source technical and functional consultants experienced in SAP ECC6 to S/4HANA migrations and HR payroll process optimisation. This approach centralised requirements gathering across HR and payroll business functions, with an explicit mandate to develop a migration roadmap, scope process rework in payroll, personnel administration, organisation management, and time recording, and produce governance artifacts to support the subsequent upgrade phases.
The implementation is explicitly timed to align HR platform decisions with the AFP S/4HANA upgrade timeline, noting the planned expiry of SAP ECC 6 maintenance in 2027, and the AFP has committed to discovery-led roadmap development to determine the pace and sequence of SuccessFactors Employee Central integration into the wider ERP landscape.

| The Hertz Corporation | Legacy | Hertz Car Rental | Rental Management System | ERP Services and Operations | n/a | 2020 | 2020 |
In 2020, Australian Federal Police implemented Hertz Car Rental as the designated car hire solution. Hertz Car Rental is deployed to fulfill the agency's Rental Management System requirements for official vehicle bookings and to align car hire procurement with AFP travel policy.
The implementation focuses on core rental management capabilities including online reservation creation, fare comparison and selection workflows, booking confirmations and agency-level record keeping. Configuration emphasizes policy controls and role-based access to ensure bookings follow approved authorization sequences and preferred supplier rules common to a Rental Management System.
Operational booking flow is explicitly governed, staff are instructed to use QBT to book flights only or to book flights, accommodation and car hire as a combined booking, to use AOT when making bookings for accommodation only, and to use Hertz when making bookings for car hire only. The solution is positioned within AFP travel operations to handle car hire transactions while other systems retain responsibility for flights and accommodation according to those procedural rules.
Governance and process controls were codified to require impartial consideration of fares, prohibiting selection based on personal preference for airline or aircraft type, access to airline lounges or accumulation of airline reward and loyalty points. The implementation therefore couples Hertz Car Rental as the Rental Management System with explicit travel policy enforcement to standardize booking channel usage across the agency.
