SAP Ariba and Icertis to replace our current sourcing and contract management system
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 help our suppliers get familiar with the new system, we recommend exploring the “How-To” guides and the FAQ document linked below. The rollout will take place in waves based on category business units where the suppliers included in each will receive the necessary communications to prepare for the change.
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-catalog solution
The e-catalog solution, known as Provide, is a digital catalog solution that enables Equinor and suppliers to collaborate online.
What do we expect from our suppliers?
Only suppliers with active contracts with Equinor are eligible to use our e-catalog solution. We expect them to maintain well-structured, user-friendly catalogs featuring clear categories, detailed descriptions, and high-quality images. The catalogs must be updated on a regular basis, especially when products are replaced or prices change. Active engagement in digital processes is also essential to ensure efficient and seamless collaboration.
What are the benefits for the supplier?
Using an e-catalog solution provides access to a structured and user-friendly catalog, ensures compliance with framework agreements, maintains up-to-date product information and pricing, reduces manual follow-up, and strengthens collaboration and efficiency. For suppliers, it offers predictable procurement, increased efficiency and trust in delivery, and potential for higher volumes and revenue growth.
Support and Assistance
Equinor’s Provide team offers comprehensive support—from onboarding to catalog maintenance—ensuring suppliers to receive the guidance needed for successful implementation. If you would like more information about Provide, please contact your contract handler at Equinor.
How to invoice Equinor
Before submitting an invoice to Equinor, a supplier must be registered in Equinor’s vendor master with a valid ID and have received a purchase order (PO) for a procurement.
Invoices that do not comply with invoicing requirements will be rejected. Here are the specifications you need to ensure successful invoicing.
Norway
Norwegian suppliers sending invoices to Equinor Energy AS, Equinor ASA, Equinor Wind Power AS, Technology Centre Mongstad and other Equinor entities registered in Peppol directory.
Electronic invoicing via EHF/Peppol is mandatory. The electronic invoicing requirements are important for Equinor to
- mitigate fraud
- ensure efficient invoice processing and timely payment
- prepare for future regulatory requirements
Electronic invoicing requirements have been part of Equinor invoicing policies since 2016. This policy will now be strictly enforced.
In addition, there will be stricter enforcement of the content of the e-Invoice, like where and how the Purchase Order reference is used.
Be aware that invoices sent as PDF will be rejected after 1 November 2025.

Business-to-Business (B2B) digital transactions
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:
- Minimal manual effort
- Higher quality
- Foundation for automation
- Enables digital future
- Digitally mature suppliers will be preferred by Equinor
- Faster and more efficient plan to pay.
Digitalisation of purchase order transmissions
We’re taking the next steps on our digital transformation journey with our suppliers, where our goal is to achieve contactless digital interaction. Equinor will issue transaction data in a standard digital format to enable suppliers to use the data to automate processes and systems in their own organisations.
