Access point Provider: means a nominated access point that is allowed to communicate with Union Database in a secure way. It is technical component used on eDelivery infrastructure. The access point provider is not authorized to store & process the information (data) shared between the economic operator and the union databases. Access point provider is nominated by a scheme and may have a framework contract established. An Economic Operator may use this approach to exchange the information from their IT system/ERP system with Union Database via the Access point provider. The economic operators may chose the Access point provider nominated by any one of the schemes and will have to ensure their bilateral contracts can ensure secure data exchange from their systems to the Union Database.
Below is the list of access point providers nominated by the schemes and allowed to communicate with Union Database.
...
Economic Operators who would like to use an Access point provider would have to test their application with Union Database before being allowed to send the information to Union Database. In order to receive support for testing of their IT systems using one of the existing Access point provider please send an email to EC-UNION-DB@ext.ec.europa.eu

Service Provider: For Economic Operators who do not have their own IT systems but would like reduce the administration burden by automation of information exchange, there is a need for Union Database service providers who can support such economic operators to digitize the information already used for complying with RED & Proof of sustainability information. Service providers are to be nominated by the schemes.
