Pan-European Public Procurement Online (PEPPOL – also known as ELMA in Norway) is a set of standards that enable simple cross-border eProcurement. It is not an e-procurement platform per se, but a set of agreed technical specifications that enable organizations to send electronic business documents such as e-invoices easily between disparate systems.

Why use PEPPOL?

As an open network, PEPPOL saves time and reduces the complexity of cross-border e-procurement, lowering costs and making the procurement process faster and more efficient.
New regulations are putting higher demands on public sector organizations across Europe to adhere to PEPPOL. They also require suppliers to the public sector to use the same infrastructure.
If you’re working in the public sector or for a supplier delivering to the public sector, and your organization is not PEPPOL enabled, you will need to be.
