An interoperability API for E-Procurement and E-Tendering platforms Driving E-Procurement
| Resumo: | Since its creation, one of the European Union big premises is creating the proper conditions for their member states unification on several levels. Therefore, efforts have been carried out to unify the European Union into a single market. On the actual economic context, it is undeniable the information technology impact upon the way company conduct business, especially regarding buying and selling of goods and services. Thus, Vortal (Portuguese market leader on electronic procurement and having strong intentions to expand internationally, with its Vortal Next> platform), is closely following the strategic changes occurring within the European Union, regarding electronic procurement. A big change will happen by 2016, where all public procurement procedures will have to be carried out electronically by then. Under the referred measure, it is expectable for procurement platforms to be created, or at least, more users joining the existing ones. Having then more users on the market, it can be seen as a business opportunity, if there is a way to overcome the existing interoperability problems between procurement platforms. That would allow the users residing in a certain platform to be able to conduct business with users residing in other platforms on a transparent fashion. Having the need for a solution that solves the interoperability problem between procurement platforms, three E-Procurement Open Standards are analyzed and compared: cXML, XVergabe and PEPPOL. It is presented then the architecture of an integration solution, called Driving E-Procurement, where an Open Standard is used in order to attain interoperability between Vortal Next> platform and every platform using cXML. However, the solution is thought and design for the future possibility of integration with platforms using other Open Standards such as XVergabe or PEPPOL. With this kind of solution, it would be possible to bring the market entities together in a transparent, flexible and effective fashion. |
