MBIE is the lead agency and the New Zealand PEPPOL Authority, with responsibility for overseeing New Zealand’s eInvoicing framework. The Australian and New Zealand Governments have adopted the PEPPOL interoperability framework for eInvoicing. eInvoicing delivers significant productivity gains by allowing the direct exchange of invoice data between suppliers’ and buyers’ financial systems, significantly reducing required manual intervention.
In 2021, MBIE set up the Open Syndicated Panel for PEPPOL capabilities and associated services (including eInvoicing) (Panel). MBIE can elect to refresh the Panel following the initial term of the contract. MBIE is now looking to refresh the Panel via this RFP.

To make it easier for New Zealand government agencies to adopt e-Invoicing, MBIE is creating a panel of PEPPOL e-Invoicing Service Providers who will supply a range of services to government agencies in New Zealand. MBIE’s goal is to increase the adoption of e-Invoicing and this approach is aimed at making it as easy as possible for government agencies to start using e-Invoicing.
A panel of PEPPOL Service Providers will mean there are available providers who have been approved for the New Zealand Government market and utilising a standard approach for e-Invoicing.
We invite PEPPOL New Zealand certified providers to respond to our RFP with the view to become a member of the New Zealand Government PEPPOL supplier panel (the Panel).

We are seeking responses from New Zealand PEPPOL Authority certified providers or Australian PEPPOL Authority certified providers.
