The ISA² Programme of the European Commission is hosting a webinar to present the Interoperability test Bed (ITB) focusing on its role in supporting the standardisation effort in the domain of electronic procurement. The ITB is a platform providing reusable testing facilities to initiatives and public administrations that create interoperability solutions in a cross-border context or linked to European Legislation.

In this webinar you will be able to find out what the ITB is, get information on its latest related developments, and receive first-hand accounts from the testing community on how it is being used to support conformance testing for electronic invoicing (eInvoicing) syntaxes and electronic tendering (eTendering) processes.

When: Monday 29 May 2017 at 15:00 (Europe/Brussels time)

For who: This is a free webinar, anyone interested in conformance and interoperability testing is welcome to join.

How to join: The webinar will be held online using WebEx.

The webinar is organised in the context of the ISA² action 2016.25. For further information, please contact Susanne Wigard, or via e-mail at isa@ec.europa.eu mentioning “ISA test bed”.
