This document summarizes a webinar about achieving 100% digitalization of procurement, payment, and sales. It discusses moving from business silos to digital business ecosystems. An example project called DBE Core was presented, which aims to automate order to pay processes electronically. Research found it could generate significant cost savings. Blockchain technology was briefly mentioned as a potential future way to link digital systems and apps more securely. The webinar concluded with an open discussion portion.

Businesses are moving
beyond traditional industry

Peppol
10 February, 20177
In Austria over 5.000 public entities are now able to receive eInvoices through the
PEPPOL network.
In Norway alone, 38.000 public and private sector recipients registered in 2015. And
more than 6.9 million transactions using PEPPOL solutions.
The eProcurement strategy of the National Health Service (NHS) in England mandates
PEPPOL use for e-ordering, e-invoicing and e-advanced shipping notes. As part of the
PEPPOL implementation, NHS is about to become a PEPPOL Authority.
In Belgium, the Federal Public Service for Information and Communication
Technology - FEDICT, has become a PEPPOL Authority.
The member base and spread outside Europe indicates a global potential among both
multinational/global companies as well as local start-ups. So far two Norwegian
SME/start-up companies basing their service offerings to a large extent on PEPPOL
results have been bought by European and US based multinational companies.
The use of PEPPOL-based solutions is steadily increasing. Just to give a few examples:

Future... Blockhain?
10 February, 20178
Imagine an enormous digital record. Anyone with internet
access can look at the information within: it is open for all to
see. Nobody is in charge of this record. It is not maintained by
a person, a company or a government department, but by
millions of computers at different locations around the world.
A blockhain is a distributed, decentralized transaction ledger;
saved by each node in the network which is maintained and
updated by each node. It’s a peer to peer environment. No
central authority manages the transaction flow.
Bitcoin is currently most known example using blockhain
network.
In the future it could reduce the effort spent on reconciling
information among various B2B apps. It could also link the
systems to external information sources, like electronic
vendors of trading data, in a more customizable and secure
way.
