Elektronisches öffentliches Beschaffungswesen - Erfüllung - Teil 1: Choreographien

Dieses Choreographiendokument beschreibt den Austausch von Informationen in der Erfüllungsphase zwischen Verkäufer und Käufer, in der der Verkäufer die Lieferung der bestellten Waren oder Dienstleistungen ankündigen will. Der Zweck der Erfüllungsphase ist es, die Ausführung des Vertrags zu überwachen. Dieser Prozess ist der Prozess zwischen dem Bestellprozess und dem Abrechnungsprozess. Der Abrechnungsprozess kann beginnen, wenn der Erfüllungsprozess eingeleitet wurde. Der geschäftliche Nutzen besteht in:
-   der Vorbereitung der Käuferorganisation auf die physische Lieferung;
-   der Ermöglichung einer automatischen Überprüfung der Lieferung für die einkaufende Organisation vor der Bezahlung der erhaltenen Rechnung;
-   der Abgleichung der bestellten Produkte mit den physischen Lieferungen, z. B. Seriennummern, Loskennungen und anderen Informationen, die zum Zeitpunkt der Bestellung der Waren möglicherweise nicht vorhanden waren;
-   der Unterstützung bei der genauen Berechnung des ökologischen Fußabdrucks der Waren durch Emissionen während des Transports;
-   der Einspeisung der Daten in den logistischen Prozess, so dass während des Transports der Waren keine erneute Eingabe erforderlich ist.

Passation électronique des marchés publics - Exécution - Partie 1 : Chorégraphies

Le présent document sur les chorégraphies décrit l'échange d'informations dans la phase d'exécution entre le vendeur et l'acheteur lorsque le vendeur souhaite annoncer la livraison des biens ou des services commandés. L'objectif de l'exécution est de contrôler la réalisation dans le cadre du contrat. Cette procédure intervient entre les procédures de commande et de facturation. La facturation peut démarrer dès le lancement de l'exécution. La valeur métier correspondante est la suivante :
—   préparer l'organisation de l'acheteur en vue de la livraison effective ;
—   permettre un contrôle automatique de la livraison auprès de l'organisation acheteuse avant d'acquitter la facture reçue ;
—   comparer les produits commandés et les livraisons effectives, tels que les numéros de série, l'identification des lots et d'autres informations susceptibles de ne pas être disponibles au moment de la commande des marchandises ;
—   inclure les émissions induites par le transport pour permettre l'obtention d'un calcul précis de l'empreinte environnementale des marchandises ;
—   intégrer des données dans le processus logistique, afin d'éviter d'avoir à ressaisir les informations lors du transport des marchandises.

Overview

EN 17017-1:2025 - Electronic Public Procurement: Fulfilment, Part 1 (Choreographies) is a CEN standard that defines the information exchanges (choreographies) occurring in the fulfilment phase between buyer and seller after an order has been placed. Its purpose is to monitor contract execution and bridge the ordering and billing processes. The standard supports automation of delivery announcements, delivery verification, and logistical data exchange to reduce manual re‑entry and improve procurement transparency.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Choreographies and business goals: Defines the set of business processes (choreographies) with shared goals for fulfilment and monitoring contract execution.
  • Business process variants: Specifies multiple fulfilment variants (documented as variants A, B and C in the standard), including:
    • Variant A - Despatch only
    • Variant B - Advanced fulfilment
    • Variant C - Receipt advice only These variants address different collaboration and messaging patterns between buyer and seller.
  • State machines and business rules: Includes state diagrams and rules to model transitions during fulfilment (informative diagrams and example scenarios are provided).
  • Transactions and messages: Identifies the transactions involved (e.g., send despatch advice, send receipt advice) and references EN 17017-2 for transaction-level definitions and syntax bindings.
  • Conformance: Instructions on how to claim conformance to a choreography variant are provided (see clause 4.2.3).
  • Derivative use: The document participates in a CEN derivative‑use pilot; specified subclauses may be reused in implementations under defined conditions.

Practical applications and users

Who will use EN 17017-1:2025:

  • Public authorities and procurement teams implementing automated eProcurement workflows to coordinate deliveries, inspections and billing.
  • Software vendors and integrators building eProcurement, ERP and logistics solutions that need standardized fulfilment choreographies.
  • Logistics and supply chain operators that require structured transport and tracking data to feed into delivery processes.
  • Auditors and compliance teams verifying that fulfilment messaging supports invoice reconciliation and environmental reporting.

Key practical benefits:

  • Prepares buyer organizations for physical delivery and reduces surprises at receipt.
  • Enables automated delivery checks before invoice payment.
  • Supports matching ordered items with delivered goods (serial numbers, lot identifiers).
  • Improves environmental footprint calculations by including transport emissions.
  • Reduces manual retyping across procurement and logistics systems.

Related standards

  • EN 17017-2:2025 - Electronic Public Procurement - Fulfilment - Part 2: Transactions (transaction definitions and syntax bindings)
  • Other CEN/TC 440 series documents on eProcurement architecture, ordering and catalogues (see CEN TC 440).

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.

4.2 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 are 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 4.5.4.
4.2.2 Business context
The choreographies specified in this document belong to the pre- and post-award area as shown in
Figure 1:
Figure 1 — Position of the Fulfilment Choreography in the e-Procurement process
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.

4.4 High Level Business process requirements
4.4.1 High level business requirements
Based on the goals and scope of this choreography the following set of high-level requirements is
identified. Each requirement is connected to a goal.
Additionally, requirements of major business processes that are frequently supported within fulfilment
are listed.
These requirements are relevant for all variants depicted within this choreography and described in
Table 5.
Table 5 — High level business requirements
Req. ID Requirement statement Ref. to goal
A despatch party (seller) submits a despatch
advice to a Consignee (Buyer) to tell them that
HLR-17017-1:2025-1 G-17017-1:2025-1
the goods are about to be delivered or that
service has been received.
When a seller submits a despatch advice
regarding service, this acts as a proof of delivery,
HLR-17017-1:2025-2 G-17017-1:2025-3
so the invoice can be issued to the customer for
the service.
A buyer can issue a receipt advice to the seller to
HLR-17017-1:2025-3 G-17017-1:2025-4
state what has been received.
For despatch advice and receipt advice, the
listed items in each document refer to the order
HLR-17017-1:2025-4 G-17017-1:2025-4
lines and states what is sent respectively being
received.
A receipt advice send by the Delivery Party can
G-17017-1:2025-3
HLR-17017-1:2025-5 act as a response to a despatch advice and state
G-17017-1:2025-4
missing or damage goods in the despatch advice.
A despatch advice can tell how the ordered items
are shipped by referring ids of the shipment,
HLR-17017-1:2025-6 G-17017-1:2025-2
consignments and the physical packaging, e.g.

EN 17017-1:2025は、電子公的調達における履行のための標準化文書であり、その範囲は、売り手と買い手の間での情報交換を詳細に説明しています。この文書は、注文された商品またはサービスの配達を通知する売り手に焦点を当て、契約の履行を監視することを目的としています。履行プロセスは、注文プロセスと請求プロセスの間の重要なステップであり、履行が開始されると請求プロセスを開始することができます。 この標準の強みは、以下のビジネス価値にあります。第一に、買い手の組織が物理的な配達に備えることができ、業務効率が向上します。第二に、受領した請求書の支払い前に自動的に配達を確認可能な仕組みを提供します。これにより、誤った請求処理を防ぎ、コストの最適化が図れます。 また、注文された製品と物理的な納品を一致させるための仕組みとして、シリアル番号やロット識別子など、注文時に存在しない情報を活用することが可能です。さらに、商品の輸送中の排出量を考慮に入れることで、環境負荷の正確な計算を支援します。最後に、物流プロセスにデータを供給することで、商品の輸送中に情報の再入力が不要になります。 EN 17017-1:2025の履行に関する振る舞いの各バリエーションに準拠する方法については、4.2.3で詳述されており、実務での適用も容易です。このように、EN 17017-1:2025は、電子公的調達のプロセス改善に貢献する重要な標準として位置付けられています。

The standard EN 17017-1:2025, titled "Electronic Public Procurement - Fulfilment - Part 1: Choreographies," provides a detailed framework for the exchange of information between sellers and buyers during the Fulfilment phase of electronic public procurement. Its scope focuses on the process that bridges the ordering and billing stages, fundamentally aimed at enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of transactions in public procurement. One of the strengths of EN 17017-1:2025 is its comprehensive approach to monitoring contract execution during the fulfilment phase. By allowing sellers to effectively announce the delivery of ordered goods or services, this standard ensures that buyers are well-prepared for physical deliveries. This preparation is crucial for the smooth transition between receiving goods and processing payments. The standard also emphasizes the importance of automatic checks on deliveries prior to invoice payments, which enhances financial accuracy and reduces the potential for disputes. By facilitating a match between ordered products and physical deliveries-through elements such as serial numbers and lot identifiers-it bolsters traceability and accountability in transactions. This focus on precise matching is particularly relevant in cases where product specifications may vary from the time of order to the actual delivery. Furthermore, EN 17017-1:2025 aids in the calculation of the environmental footprint associated with goods, incorporating emissions during transport into the overall evaluation. This aspect not only promotes sustainability in procurement practices but also aligns with the growing emphasis on corporate social responsibility and environmental stewardship among organizations. Another notable strength of this standard is its role in enhancing the logistics process by eliminating the need for retyping during the transport of goods. By feeding pertinent data directly into logistics systems, the standard streamlines operations, leading to increased efficiency and reduced errors throughout the supply chain. The explicit guidance on how to claim conformance to a choreography variant in section 4.2.3 reinforces the standard's utility and relevance. Organizations engaged in electronic public procurement can leverage this information to ensure compliance and operational excellence. In summary, EN 17017-1:2025 stands out for its robust framework that not only supports the smooth fulfillment of orders but also contributes significantly to improving operational efficiency, sustainability, and accountability in electronic public procurement. Its comprehensive scope ensures that organizations can navigate the complexities of the fulfilment phase with increased confidence and clarity.
