Peppol
The
PEPPOL project aims at making public procurement easier and more efficient by
improving electronic communication between companies and government bodies. SMEs
and EU governments will enjoy reduced costs through automated and simplified
processes and more competition in bids. Electronic processes also ensure
transparency and better control of funding, as well as the possibility to
facilitate green and sustainable procurement. By allowing any company in the EU
to communicate electronically with any EU governmental institution to fulfill
procurement procedures, the project constitutes an important step towards
achieving the Single European Market.
