We have pursued implementing Unify in London, however there are a number of
issues preventing that from happening in the near future:

The Unify IT team has a lot of competing priorities (including the Houston
SAP implementation, as well as Houston and Calgary changes and enahncements),
and are unable to commit to a firm implementation date at this time.
New commitments by ENA (see mail at bottom) have further complicated the
priorities, so even the tentative plans for implementing Unify in London this
year are in doubt.
On the IT side, there are a number of issues with support and scalability of
the current architecture of the system.

As it doesn't look like Unify can be implemented in London this year, we will
therefore change focus to streamlining the existing tactical solutions in
London (enhancing Back Office Settlements System, integrating with Global
CounterParties, removing London Office Manager, and using SAP where
appropriate).

Once Unify has been integrated with SAP in Houston we will in a better
position to consider the long-term strategic approach to Unify in London.
If anyone believes that we should take a different response, please respond
to this email.

We need to discuss the details, but to my mind the question has to be why
wouldn't we do it?

Putting Unify in London is not something that is going to happen tomorrow.
If we are going to do it we need to do it right.
Shall we go ahead with this?

Subject: Revised Unify Plan

During the last few weeks, we experienced significant increases in Unify
transaction volumes because of Columbia Energy Services acquisition, EOL and
Calgary implementation. For example, recently the Logistics transactions
increased by 91% while deal/meter count increased by 61% and total volume
(MMBTU) by 66%. In addition, it is very possible that volumes may increase
by another 30% due to new acquisitions in the near future. For these
reasons, we must put our efforts in overhauling Unify Settlement now before
working on London implementation. Therefore, we are postponing our February
out visit to London., We will let you know our revised plans and targets as
soon as we can. Thank you.
