  14. Standards for System Integration/Collaboration Facilities (Phases III and IV) Interpretation (DSDL, Relax NG) Web Services (WS*) Interoperability/Collaboration(ebXML, WS-I Profiles, WSCI, BPEL) Private Sector Systems Public Sector Systems Registration of Services (UDDI) Provisioning(SPML) EGP System Web Security (WS Security, SAML, XACML) Select Next to continue

  15. Mandated already by many governments (India, UK, Canada, EU, Phil, Brazil…) and recommended by most. Embraced in varying degrees by large vendors (IBM, HP, Oracle…) Adoption of Open Standards is: Open Standards • However, from 2006 MDB survey of eProcurement systems in 14 leading countries*… • No one allows ODF documents. • Only 6 use UNSPSC. • Only 4 use XML, and only one uses ebXML for interoperable electronic business • Only 4 use SOAP, 3 use UDDI, only 1 uses WSDL and none use BPEL, WS-Security, WSCI • However, most use digital certificates and asymmetrical encription for authentication. *Argentina, Australia (State of New South Wales), Brazil, Chile, Finland, Hong Kong, India (Indian Railways), Italy, Mexico, Norway, Romania, Singapore, South Korea, The Philippines Select Next to continue

  16. Summary / Recommendations Recommendations to Consider • Adopt an open standards policy for all eProcurement- related work. Refer to standards by name (“or substantially equivalent”) in SRSs and SLAs. • Investigate and if possible adopt ebXML family of standards (ISO 15000) for all eProcurement-related work. • Adopt SOA and Web services as the architectural standards for eProcurement. • Adopt a business process modeling standard (BPMN or UMM) and use to document functional requirements of eProcurement systems, even if procuring a COTS solution. It will serve well in acceptance testing and in avoiding vendor lock-in. Select Next to continue

  17. Summary / Recommendations Recommendations to Consider • Reserve Digital signatures and PKI for strong authentication and signing of legally-enforceable documents. For other purposes, experiment first with simpler methods (encryption, two-factor authentication). • Assign a person to watch and recommend standards. This may be done centrally for whole government. • Consider OSS products as they often implement and promote open standards. • Strongly consider adopting international classification/description standards (UN SPSC, CPV, GTIN or similar) instead of a home-grown alternative.
