The NHS e-Procurement Strategy requires PEPPOL and GDSN compliance in order to ensure interoperability between hospitals and NHS suppliers by exchanging invoices, credit notes purchase orders and order responses electronically. The aim of this initiative is to speed up and streamline the procurement process for goods and services, making it more efficient.
Now, the NEP Consortium, consisting of more than 58 NHS organisations, has mandated the use of electronic invoicing and purchase orders via PEPPOL as of 1st of June 2022. This means that any trading partner working with the NEP Consortium will need to contract a PEPPOL Access Point to ensure connectivity and automate these transactions.
