Digital Public Services - Cross-border Pilots (LSPs)

Large Scale Pilot projects (LSPs) bring together public authorities, service providers and research centres across the EU to help deliver public services on-line, and to make them accessible to citizens and businesses throughout Europe.

Five such LSPs are currently running:

• e-CODEX - making justice faster
• epSOS - making healthcare better
• STORK 2.0 - making access smarter through a single European electronic identification and authentication area
• PEPPOL - making procurement better through seamless cross-border eProcurement
• SPOCS - making business easier by using e-Documents to support the interoperability of services

Run largely with and/or by the EU's Member States, the pilot projects develop practical solutions tested in real government service cases across Europe. These practical solutions will help make cross-border government services a reality and enable diffrent pubilc authorities across the EU to communicate with each other digitally despite their different national technical specificities & languages.

These solutions are bringing down the digital borders in Europe, many years after the physical barriers were already removed.

Videos are available: e-Codex, epSOS, PEPPOL (OpenPEPPOL), SPOCS, STORK 2.0
