Policy domain owners

Policy domain owners involved in the roll out of EU or national policies that require the secure exchange of documents and data are the main target of the services of eDelivery.

By adopting eDelivery, these actors make sure that Public Administrations can exchange any type of data and documents across borders. This means enabling Administration to Administration communication (A2A) contributing to the creation of an European single market which is fit for the digital age. 

eDelivery can also be used in Administration to Business (A2B) and Business to Administration (B2A) scenarios, as proven by the PEPPOL implementation of eDelivery in the eProcurement domain.

It can also enable the interconnection of Public Administrations with Citizens (A2C and C2A) when adopted in the development of webportals. For example, eDelivery enables the eJustice portal to talk with other information systems. Communications between citizens (C2C) is out of scope of eDelivery. 


Software and service providers 

eDelivery is also appealing for service and software vendors in the eDelivery domain. These actors can benefit form the eDelivery services when upgrading their solutions to become conformant with the technical specifications.
