National Product Catalogue - E-Procurement Business Architecture v1.1

This business architecture provides the high level solution for the implementation of e-procurement in the Health supply chain. It explains the roles in the e-procurement community, and the shared processes that they use to achieve procurement using electronic document exchange. The purpose of the architecture is to define an Agency standard mechanism for replacement of the current fax and email based communication of procurement documents within the health sector. The Agency and the jurisdictions will not implement a new e-procurement hub service, as the architecture is designed to reuse the existing Business to Business (B2B) Hub services in the marketplace.
