Project background
Digital Agenda for Europe
Regulatory barriers should be eliminated to facilitate crossborder use of commercial and cultural digital content and
services and to enable citizens and businesses to fully benefit
from the European Single Market.
Other important policies:
European eGovernment Action Plan 2011-2015
The European Interoperability Framework
Large Scale Pilots (LSP)
Large Scale Pilots support Digital Agenda
implementation in key areas. They achieve
interoperability between existing national IT systems
in different domains.
e-SENS will build on existing solutions to further
develop Digital Single Market
Re-using LSP solutions
SPOCS
“Simple Procedures Online for Cross-border
Services”
epSOS
“European Patients Smart Open Services”
STORK
“Secure idenTity acrOss boRders linKed”
PEPPOL “Pan European Public Procurement OnLine
e-CODEX “e-Justice Communication via Online Data
EXchange”
 All projects run with existing national back office systems
LSP family
projects co-founded within CIP ICT – PSP
enable seamless digital public services within various
domains
operate with existing national back-office systems
aim at assuring interoperability of national e-government
systems
support implementation of the Digital Agenda for Europe
The LSPs help to „build, connect and grow” in Europe

Consolidate, improve, extend
e-SENS
- Consolidates the results of LSP projects
- Improves solutions and develops generic
modules
- Extends their usage to more domains
e-SENS tasks
• Stock taking
• Specifications of consolidated building blocks
• Testing and pilot enablement
• Piloting
• Handover
e-SENS competence clusters
e-Delivery & eInteraction
• to facilitate electronic document exchange
across borders
Semantics,
Processes and
Documents
• for cross-border understanding in public
administration
Identity, Security
and Trust
• to enable signing and verification of any
document and electronic identification and
authentication
Conformance and
Testing
• Conformance and interoperability testing for
e-SENS SBBs
e-SENS building blocks
Building Block - re-usable component of business,
IT, or architectural capability that can be combined
with other building blocks to deliver architectures
and solutions.
High Level Building Blocks
Solution Architecture Template (SAT) is a specification containing
a sub-set of ABBs of the EIRA. It provides guidance and support for
the design of and communication about an interoperable solution.
Some of the identified SATs of e-SENS are:
 e-Delivery,
 e-Documents,
 e-Signatures,
 e-ID
Building Blocks consolidation
Consolidation is based on the LSP building blocks and domains
use cases and requirements. e-SENS project checks the possibility
of build a generic solution applicable for different domains. In the
same time e-SENS has to ensure sustainability of this solution and
conformity with standards.
Piloting
Integration of technical modules with national
systems
Testing technical solutions in real life scenarios
Opportunity for business and citizens to deal with
cross-border cases in public administration
electronically
Selection of piloting use cases
RELEVANCE
IMPACT
IMPLEMENTATION
• Building Blocks relevance to CEF priorities
• Use Case relevance to domain priorities for CEF
• Relevance to National Policies in the MS proposing the
pilot
• Consolidation of Building Blocks and their re-usability
across piloting domains
• Maturity of Building Blocks
• Market Adoption Potential of BBs and take-up of Use Cases
• Strong commitment of participants and Stakeholders
• Clear and realistic implementation plan
• Feasible gap to fill between current status and future
intentions
Real life scenarios
Cross border cases for:
 e-health – easier access to health services while abroad
 e-justice – electronic issuing of a claim in a foreign court
 e-procurement – electronic bidding in other EU countries
 business lifecycle – online completion of formalities for
company setup abroad

Benefit for administration, IT industry
and citizens
Member States:
• will receive technical solutions allowing them to create
interoperable, efficient and re-usable, high quality public
services
IT industry:
• will have access to open source solutions to be used in their
own business services
• Connect and expand your customer base
Citizens and entrepreneurs:
• will reap benefits from public services which will improve
their freedom to move, live and do business within the EU
and other countries
