Paving the way for European Interoperability
An IDA(BC) eProcurement Workshop, May 11 2004

Representatives from the public and private sectors gathered for IDA(BC)'s eProcurement Workshop in Brussels on May 11th to discuss past accomplishments and identify priorities for potential eProcurement actions in view of the Commission's eProcurement Action Plan.

The workshop focused on issues of interoperability and compliance that are central to the further development of eProcurement in Europe and shed light on experience gained from existing initiatives. The European Commission, and in particular representatives from the IDA(BC) Unit, DG Internal Market and DG Information Society, provided an introduction to interoperability issues and invited the Member States to disseminate examples and solutions in the afternoon session. In addition, Internet connections were made available during lunch and the afternoon coffee break for participants to conduct demonstrations.

For more information about the structure of the workshop, please see the Workshop Programme. The Workshop Presentations and Proceedings have also been made available below.
