What are the reasons to have an eInvoicing Pioneer Group?
The eInvoicing Pioneer Group wants to enable a co-creation experience involving eInvoicing stakeholders and the European Commission to achieve stakeholders' needs according to the EU actions and initiatives in the context of B2G eInvoicing.
This ad hoc group will be composed of motivated eInvoicing stakeholders from the public and the private sector that meet to provide a range of feedback to the European Commission on eInvoicing matters and to drive activities to support the launch of the European Standard on eInvoicing as well as to support the compliance with Directive 2014/55/EU on electronic invoicing in public procurement.
The purpose of the eInvoicing Pioneer Group will be to identify different national and sector specific stakeholders and networks (relevant national & sub-national authorities with responsibility for eInvoicing) to engage in different targeted activities such as the promotion of the benefits and usefulness of the CEF eInvoicing services and resources, such as:
- The eInvoicing Readiness Checker
- The 2017 Study on the State of play of B2G eInvoicing in public procurement built upon an online survey that aims to collect information on the state of play of eInvoicing in EU Member States and other EEA participating countries
- The CEF eInvoicing remote and on-siteTrainings service
- The CEF eInvoicing series of Webinars
- The CEF eInvoicing Conformance Testing service
