One area of interest has been the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna, which was a pioneer in the implementation of paperless e-ordering in its public sector. In technical terms, this means connecting to the NSO with a direct connection to the platform or through the PEPPOL Network. This means all companies supplying the SSN must be able to receive and process orders electronically. In Italy, as of February, suppliers of the National Health Services (SSN) are only allowed to receive electronic orders through the government’s NSO platform ( Nodo Smistamento Ordini). To use the system, suppliers must secure the services of a PEPPOL-accredited Access Point. To ensure interoperability, the PEPPOL standard must be used. Four types of EDI messages will be used in the system: orders, invoices, order confirmations and credit notes. In the United Kingdom, the National Health Service (NHS) and all of its suppliers are using EDI as part the UK’s e-Procurement Strategy. The implementation of electronic ordering systems as in the above cases requires suppliers to be equipped to issue electronic orders in European format and to send them via the PEPPOL network (Pan-European Public Procurement Online). Starting next year, Denmark will make the use of electronic ordering and e-catalogs mandatory. ![]()
