SPAA

Gas industry retail governance is controlled by a Supply Point Administration Agreement (SPAA) developed by the gas industry and Ofgem. This facilitates the development of processes and procedures jointly agreed to support competition in the supply of gas.

The SPAA extranet was designed and implemented by Bostock and Pollitt on the Grouptree Framework .  The extranet provides online administrative information to assist with the fuctions of the SPAA Executive Committee and its sub-committees.  

Documents are created by a central manager and then commented on and signed-off online by all parties to the agreement. Each party to the development and sign-off process is able to view the document history and amendments. This speeds up the development process and provides secure access to approved documents. In addition, this approach enables all parties to review the level of project control and audit completed work.
