EDI development projects: Tasks in the framework of the TEDIS II programme
The Commission of the European Communities issues an open procedure call for proposals in the framework of the TEDIS programme concerned with tasks in the field of EDI development: - To set up a group of authorities responsible for the registration of EDI users in accordance with the protocol of agreement formulated during the preceding phase; - To launch projects involving open EDI interconnectivity platforms based on ISDN; - To make an assessment in the legal sector (in the cases of both existing and potential EDI projects) of the measures taken and legal problems encountered; - In the interests of EDI safety to launch a pilot study of the consequences of the development of open EDI and to develop the EDI messages needed to support third-party certification functions; - To launch a study on the analysis of the impact of EDI in order to assess the desirability of introducing a mechanism for coordinating, at European level, the EDI-based relationship between economic operators. Community financial support is available for selected projects designed to improve the situation in the above fields in Europe.
