Technology
Tender Works is transferred to the users via integrators. Functionalities of the application are available by means of SOAP interfaces. An embedded editor module has been inserted into the special document and flow editor surface for the integrators. This editor module may easily be integrated into their readily available WEB applications via an IFRAME.

SOAP interface
The primary function of the interface is to make available the services of Tender Works for other corporate management, filing and financial applications. Furthermore, Tender Works may also serve as a tool for cross-border interoperability (just like PEPPOL project) that has become a designated aim within all European Community member states, since the applied protocol is in line with the data exchange and flow management methods defined within the e-Procurement projects.
Throughout the design of the SOAP interface, already tested applications, industry standards and research results have all been applied.
