PEPPOL for Suppliers

To enable the benefits of digital trading, the NHS in England and Wales now requires the adoption of the Peppol standard throughout their supply chain. As a certified Peppol Service Provider, we can connect you to the Peppol network without the need for you to change your systems.  For suppliers who want full integration, we can support any message formats and communications protocols you currently use, and convert from/to the Peppol BIS documents exchanged via the Peppol network.

Our hosted and fully managed Peppol EDI service can support whatever message formats and communications protocols your system needs to use or you can simply connect via our Peppol portal.

No enrolment fees

There is no enrolment fee for choosing the EDI PLUS service. We simply charge a one-off set-up fee when you want to start exchanging data via Peppol, and annual subscription fees relative to the amount of business to be transacted. These fees can be fixed in advance.

Scalable solution

Whether you want to have full EDI integration with your customers, or just the minimum needed to trade with the NHS, we can provide the right solution for your needs.

For suppliers who want full integration, we can support any message formats and communications protocols  you currently use, and convert from/to the Peppol BIS documents exchanged via the Peppol network.

Peppol portal

If your business volumes do not justify integration with your own systems, we can provide you access to a secure Peppol portal. There, you can view, download or print your Peppol orders. Electronic invoices can then be easily produced and sent back, either from your own systems via our EDI service, or directly on the portal from the order.

With our Peppol certified service taking care of the different technical details for your various customers, you can now achieve NHS EDI compliance with much less cost and effort than ever before.

Which Trusts are Peppol Ready?

We are frequently asked this question by suppliers, and in order to make it easy for anyone to find the relevant details we have created an at-a-glance summary of which Peppol document types can now be exchanged with which NHS customers. You do not need any Peppol expertise or knowledge of Trust GLNs in order to use this simple directory, which can be found at https://www.whoispeppolready.com/directory

There is also the official  global Peppol directory, which is maintained by the Open Peppol community and can be accessed at https://directory.peppol.eu/public/locale-en_US/menuitem-search. That directory is comprehensive, and searchable, and our simple directory does not seek to replace it. However, if you are a supplier to the UK NHS and just want to get a simple answer to the simple question “who is Peppol ready”, our directory may be easier for you to find the information you are looking for.

Not satisfied with your current Peppol integration solution?

• Reduce your costs
