Introduction
Derivative use pilot
This publication falls under a CEN-CENELEC pilot on derivative use (as approved by the CEN/CA
(Administrative Board) through decision 38/2019).
CEN has the copyright to all CEN publications, including their entire content and associated metadata, as
described in CEN-CENELEC Guide 10 “Policy on dissemination, sales and copyright of CEN-CENELEC
Publications”. However, through the derivative use pilot, CEN gives permission to the copying, replication
and translation of content from a CEN/TC 440 deliverables in specific circumstances.
Under the derivative use pilot, specific sections of CEN/TC 440 publications may be copied, replicated
and translated in cases, where this is a necessary condition for the meaningful implementation of the
publication. The sections which fall under derivative use will typically be elements, such as semantic
definitions and rules related to the use of information elements, and the name, definition and description
of processes and transactions, which are needed in software solutions, whether intended for sale in the
private market or for use in the public sector, and documents guiding the implementation and use in
specific countries and/or business sectors.
Under derivative use, any use of content, which has been copied, replicated, or translated from a CEN/TC
440 publication, comply with the intended use of the publication. Derivative use cannot be applied in use
cases other than those the publication is intended to support. The intended use of this publication is set
out below
Intended use of this publication
This document has been developed for any organization looking for guidance on the implementation and
use of electronic procurement deliverables as well as for organizations developing or implementing
software applications related to electronic procurement, such as software providers, business entities
and national authorities. These software applications are in conformance with this publication.
Parts of the document to which derivative use apply
Each subclause, which falls under derivative use, will be clearly marked with a note. The degree to which
the specific content can be modified, is defined in CEN/TS 17011-3:20xx Electronic Public Procurement
– Architecture – Part 3: Customization Guideline.
Annex A provides an overview of the line number references to all subclauses of the publication which
fall under derivative use.

transaction
content of data exchanged or shared between the agents in a collaboration
Note 1 to entry: A transaction is the atomic unit that leads to a synchronized state in the information systems of
collaborating agents. It is the basic building block to define the choreography between agents. When an agent
recognizes an event that changes the state of a business object within a business process, it uses a transaction to
synchronize with the collaborating agent. A transaction therefore changes the state of a business process. It carries
the intention of the initiating agent and is represented by a data structure that is defined by a data model. The
exchange of a transaction may alter legal obligations between business partners.
4 Business Environment and high-level business requirements
4.1 Choreographies (business) Goals
The business goals supported by implementing these choreographies are described in Table 1:
Table 1 — Business goals
ID Description
G-17015–1:202X-1 Facilitate the comparison of items on the buying side.
G-17015–1:202X-2 Simple storage and automated maintenance of item information on the buying
side.
G-17015–1:202X-3 Correct identification and pricing of items in the ordering processes and
tendering processes.
G-17015–1:202X-4 Enable Sellers to provide tailored item and price information.
The main business benefits to be gained by implementing these choreographies are described in Table 2:
Table 2 — Main business benefits
ID Description
B-17015–1:202X-1 Enables the optimization and automation of the order process the order can
be based on the sellers/providers own item information, in particular the item
identification.
B-17015–1:202X-2 Facilitates preparing of orders.
4.2 Business environment
4.2.1 Introduction
The intended scope for these choreographies includes public procurement, but the choreography may
also be used in Business to Business (B2B) relations.
The choreographies is intended to support transmission of electronic documents for processing in (semi-
) automated processes. The legal requirements that were taken into account are requirements from
European legislation, particularly the EU directives, as mentioned in the bibliography section of this
document.
The list of the transactions being part of this choreography is defined in Clause 8.
4.2.2 Business context
The choreographies specified in this document belong to the pre- and post-award area as shown in

4.2.3 Positioning in EIRA
EIRA provides a reference model that enables architects to position the IOP specifications. This document
provides a domain-specific IOP specification to which any SBB implementing the ABB should be
compliant to. The positioning of this document in the EIRA context is described in Table 3.
IOP specifications provide a valuable source of information to formulate requirements during
architecture development and solution development. By identifying architectural building blocks
through a common terminology it;
helps reuse of cross domain building blocks such for instance e-Signature Verification and Validation
Service, and e-Timestamp Creation Service,
helps synchronisation and alignment with large scale pilots such as eSense, or European solution such as
CEF eDelivery
and will provide guidance in using them to provide the prescribed capability enabling, thus managing
and rationalizing IT portfolios.

5.1 Introduction
In order to encompass the various maturity levels of organisations (see HLR-17015-101-9), the approach
is to specify variants of business processes that use a set of activities around exchanging information in
different combinations.

to get in agreement.
