Business Interoperability Interfaces for Public procurement in Europe - Part 0: Introduction

This CWA addresses the next step of standardization for the data exchange within an infrastructure shared by business partners. The focus is the semantics of the public procurement business processes built by xml based vocabularies specified by UBL 2.0 and UN/CEFACT core components. This is expressed in the CWA profile descriptions. A profile description is a technical specification describing:

- The choreography of the business processes.

- The business rules governing the execution of these business processes.

This guideline is a deliverable of the second CEN Workshop on Business Interoperability Interfaces for public

procurement in Europe (WS/BII2).

The objective of the BII initiative is to provide a framework for interoperability in pan-European electronic

procurement transactions, expressed as a set of requirements and technical specifications. The

requirements are input into UN/CEFACT in order to ensure global interoperability.
