UX key patterns
Rooms 304 & 305
This session will provide in-depth information on the user-centricity of the Once-Only Technical System. To complete a procedure using the Once-Only Technical System, citizens will interact with screens provided by multiple authorities in different Member States. The objective of this collaborative workshop will be to build a comprehensive map of the different OOTS user flows. The map build in the work happening in the OOTS UX Lab and will service to support Member States in their implementation.
10:00 - 12:00
LCM updates to the Common Services
Room 310
This session will provide information on how the LCM interface will be used by the Member States to update the MS data of the EB and DSD. During the session, participants will see a demo of how the LCM exchange works and are expected to also demonstrate their implementation where applicable.
13:00 - 15:00
eID exploration and integration
Room 310
This session will provide information on the reuse of eIDAS eID by the Once-Only Technical System. eID allows European citizens to use their national eIDs when accessing online services from other European countries.

10:00 - 11:00
Once-Only Technical System and related systems
Room 310
This session will explore OOTS-related systems. Article 14 of the Single Digital Gateway Regulation and the related Implementing Regulation create the legal basis for the Once-Only Technical System. Recital 6 of the Implementing Regulating states that the Once-Only Technical System should build on the work already done and exploit synergies with other existing systems for the exchange of evidence or information among authorities relevant for the procedures referred to in the SDG regulation.
11:00 - 12:00
Operational Governance
Room 310
This session will provide information on the definition of operational arrangements for the Once-Only domain, specifically concerning the development of the OOTS National Domain.

How to register for the June Once-Only Technical System Projectathon
1
The Organising Team invites the National Coordinators register for the Projectathon event via an event registration form (using EU Survey). They share the link to the event registration form with each person joining the Projectathon from their team. It is mandatory for every participant of a Member State to fill in the event registration form (it is a pre-condition for getting access to the Gazelle platform).
2
The organising Team invites each of the persons registered in EU survey as participants to register in Gazelle. The MS team then identifies the MS Gazelle admin that will encode the organisation and users (team members) in the Gazelle platform (active participants only).
3
The MS Gazelle admin then select the relevant test session (October 2023) and add your System(s) Under Test (SUT) in the Gazelle platform (active participants only).
Past Projectathons
The Commission is organising three Once-Only Technical System Projectathons in 2023. These are three-day events where national teams will connect various systems and perform a marathon of peer-to-peer interoperability and compliance tests in a structured environment.
Projectathon #1
Past
The April Projectathon brought together participants and observers to perform key tests on their national Once-Only Technical System implementations, ahead of the June and October sessions.
19 - 21 April 2023
Projectathon #2
Past
The June Projectathon provided a valuable moment for national implementation teams to perform interoperability tests prior to the summer recess.
14 - 16 June 2023
Past Projectathon highlights
Explore the Valuable Insights and Reflections on Projectathon Events and discover how Member States can benefit from participation before implementing the OOTS.
The Projectathon Playbook provides a detailed overview of the Projectathon events organized for teams across the Member States willing to test their system before the go-live of the Once-Only Technical System.
