What is CEN WS/BII? The path towards more efficient procurement in Europe Paris June 2, 2014 Jostein Frømyr CEN WS/BII3 Vice-chair, technical coordination
Agenda • Our objectives • What can we offer today? • What have we achieved so fare?
Vision and mission • The vision of the BII Workshop is that all organizations – independent of whether they are public or private and whatever their size and nationality - are enabled to conduct electronic business in an effective and efficient manner, significantly lowering costs for transaction processing. • The CEN WS/BII Workshop mission is to spread and facilitate the use of e-procurement standards by suppliers and buyers, and especially public administrations, by: • identifying requirements (including legal) regarding e-procurement standards; • providing a general framework for the organizational and semantic levels of interoperability for the electronic procurement documents; • supporting the implementation of commonly applied international e-procurement standards; • providing organizational support to ensure the governance and maintenance for those requirements.
What is CEN WS/BII? • Business Interoperability Interfaces for public procurement in Europe (CEN WS/BII) • A workshop under CEN • Phase 1 CWA 16073 • Phase 2 5 CWAs CWA 16559 BII Tender Notification profile CWA 16560 BIIUse of profiles in the tendering process CWA 16561 BIIeCatalogue profiles CWA 16562 BIIPost Award profiles CWA 16558 Architecture
UN/CEFACT SIMPLE, TRANSPARENT AND EFFECTIVE PROCESSES FOR GLOBAL BUSINESS. BII guides implementation of standards The focus of BII is on collecting European requirements and to provide guidance for consistent implementation of existing international developments. Standards Global business goals and requirements European business goals and requirements Implementation guidance Implementations Community business goals and requirements
Scope of work Pre-awarding phases Post-awarding phases The scope of work for the workshopcontinues to be on achieving interoperability along whole procurement process, with a B2G perspective, including where possible also a B2B perspective (which in the post-award is very close to B2G perspective). Notification identify need call for tender preparation Access eSubmission Awarding Contract Fulfilment Invoicing Ordering Payment
Our approach Goal A Profile is a technical specification describing: • the choreography of the business process(es) covered, • the electronic business transactions exchanged as part of the business process, • the business rules governing the execution of that business process(es), its business collaborations and business transactions, as well as any constraints on information elements used • the information content of the electronic business transactions exchanged documented in the form of transaction Information Requirement Models. Requirements Validation Syntax
Core information requirements • BII is defining core information requirement models • the set of information elements sufficient to cater for the generally expressed business requirements applicable throughout the European market. • BII specifications can be implemented as is, but may also be further customized for community use.

BII is operational! CEN WS/BII3
Summary of achievements • Engaged stakeholders • Robust methodology • Useful deliverables • Actual implementation • Recognition of the added value BII is contributing to making procurement in Europe more efficient!
BII enables interoperablee-procurements solutions • BII Profiles allow for interoperability at the organizational level. • BII Information Requirement Models allow for interoperability at semantic level. • BII syntax binding and validation tools supports interoperability at technical level.
What’s in the future? • Continue the work initiated by CEN WS/BII, and further refined under CEN WS/BII 2, to support interoperability in electronic procurement and business. • Provide increased value to the BII user community by • Filling the gaps to ensure that all relevant aspects of e-procurement are covered • Facilitate increased use through capacity building • Securing the continued relevance of the BII deliverables by providing a focal point for governance and lifecycle management
