Governments as innovators and market drivers for e-invoicing
1. Governments as innovators and market drivers Mikkel Hippe Brun Technical Director, PEPPOL Chief Consultant, Danish IT- and Telecom Agency Email: mhb@itst.dk Twitter: @hippebrun EXPP-SUMMIT 2009 Amsterdam September 21st 2009
2. Gartner’s Hype Cycle for E-Procurement Peak of Inflated Expectations Plateau of Productivity Trough of Disillusionment Innovation Trigger Slope of Enlightenment Procure-to-Pay Solutions Business Process Networks Web-to-Print Applications Extended Purchasing Suites Expectations E-procurement Multienterprise Business Process Platform SaaS Procurement Applications E-Invoicing E-Procurement Network Supplier Portals Time Years to mainstream adoption 2 to 5 years less than 2 years 5 to 10 years Selected applications from: Hype Cycle for Procurement Applications, Gartner 2009
3. Imagine 10 years from now... European E-Invoicing is mainstream 23 million SME’s have adopted E-Invoicing 3 million public sector E-Invoicing endpoints* 1-2 billion invoices sent to public sector pr. year* >100,000 work years are being saved in public sector pr. year* How did we get to this situation? What role did governments play?
4. Imagine 10 years from now... Are these savings on e-invoicing equal to a competitive advantage in 2019? NO Competitive advantage implies that: We reach mainstream adoption ahead of the curve We have gone much further in digitizing the full procurement chain
5. E-Invoicing Product Life Cycle Maturity E A R L Y G R O W T H L A T E G R O W T H I NTR ODUCTION Volume Mainstream adoption Time
6. Mainstream adoption in 10 years Maturity 23 mill. Volume Mainstream adoption Time 10 years 8 years 5 years
7. Mainstream adoption in 5 years Maturity 23 mill. Volume Mainstream adoption Time 10 years 4 years 5 years
17. Removing barriers Private sector The private sector can provide good solutions E.g. banks, VAN’s and other Service Providers A competitive environment fosters innovation E-government services are lagging behind Government should stay out “We do not want this creeping public sector standardization”
18. Removing barriers Public sector Government is the single largest buyer in the EU Approximately 1,800 Billion Euro Government should be a locomotive For standardization For establishment of infrastructure Government should raise the bar E.g. make E-Invoicing mandatory Governments have historically solved large scale market coordination failures E.g. ARPANET, GSM
28. Solution? Use Tax Payers Money to Establish the core infrastructure services Secure funding Set up a governance framework Shared by public and private sector Step back Allow the private sector to innovate
