Agenda:

  • Present 1st draft of eAccess

  • Discuss use cases and user stories for eAccess

Discussion:

1st Draft of eAccess

  • Question: Does the procurement service provider take part in the ESPDRequest or only in the ESPDResponse? Answer: The procurement service provider offers a platform that can be used by both the Buyer and Economic Operator.

  • The relation between epo-acc:ESPDRequest and epo:ProcurementCriterion was named as epo:announcesProcurementCriterion with a cardinality of 1..*.

  • Legislation has an official language. It was suggested to consider Legislation as a Document, this would imply that many of the properties could be inherited from Documen:

    • dct:title

    • dct:description

    • epo:hasURL

    • epo:hasOfficialLanguage However, this needs to be looked into more depth to see the correctness of this idea.

  • epo:ProcurementSubcriterion was deleted from the proposed draft because it is a redundancy of the epo:Criteria.

  • Based on the ESPD data model Criterion has one or many requirement groups, according to CCCEV a Criterion is a type of Requirement (see below the CCCEV model).

How the ESPD is used

The ESPD resquester request an ESPD from the ESPD provider. The request is partly reused as a template for the response.

  1. The Buyer publishes the ESPD Request at the same time as the notice. The ESPD Request is a Procurement Document.

  2. An economic operator consults the ESPD Request. ==== Use cases and user stories for eAccess

A first use case was defined below, concerning the ESPD Request

Similar user stories to the ones of relied upon entities can be defined for subcontractors.

Action point:

  • Discuss the difference/similarities between Document and Legislation.

  • Discuss evidence template with the ESPD team.
