Why Monitoring?
The European Commission distributes several solutions called Building Blocks under the DIGITAL programme (and the CEF Telecom programme before that), designed to improve cross-border interoperability of digital public services. To ensure the programme is delivering benefits to citizens and businesses alike, we monitor the adoption and reuse of the Building Blocks. Information on these indicators is collected every quarter and shared via interactive dashboards, that provide real-time insights into the progress and impact of these services.
What are we monitoring?
We monitor several KPIs for each of the Building Blocks. Our data collection began under the Connecting Europe Facility Programme, between 2015 and 2022. This programme has ended, but the results are available as a consolidated report.
Under the current DIGITAL Europe funding programme (2021 - 2027), we carry on our Monitoring activities, focusing on a smaller list of Building Blocks.
Digital Monitoring 2021 - 2024
DIGITAL Monitoring is now being conducted under the Digital Europe Programme (DIGITAL), previously it was under CEF Monitoring. There is quarterly monitoring of six key digital services: EBSI, eDelivery, eID, eInvoicing, eSignature, and OOTS. To ensure rigorous and relevant analysis, a new monitoring framework has been established, with multiple indicators and targets defined for each service. Information on these indicators is collected every quarter and is used to update dashboards, providing real-time insights into the progress and impact of these services. For an in-depth understanding of the methodologies used, please refer to the new Digital Monitoring Framework.
Digital Building Blocks Dashboards

eDelivery
Exchange electronic data and documents in an interoperable and secure way

eInvoicing
Send and receive electronic invoices with automated processing, in line with the European standard
EBSI dashboard
Stay informed with key metrics on EBSI's adoption, including the total nodes powering the infrastructure, the number of active use cases, and more.


Once-Only Technical System Dashboard
Keep track of OOTS activity, including the number of Member States participating in Projectathons, those connected to Testing Services, and more.
Reuse of the Building Blocks
As reusability is a key component of the Building Blocks, it was identified as a reliable indicator to measure for assessing the overall performance of each Building Block. The Building Blocks covered under this monitoring framework can potentially be reused by any project, system or initiative throughout the world. Please note that EBSI and OOTS can not be tracked for reusability, because they are either not in the right project phase or are not reusable by design.
The dashboard only displays information on the reuse of the following DIGITAL Builidng Blocks; eDelivery, eID, eSignature, and eInvoicing.
To find information on other indicators used to capture the performance of EBSI and OOTS, please refer to their respective dashboards.
The projects are clustered in different groups based on their adoption status: Commitment to analyse, Commitment to reuse and Reusing
