Framework and impact analysis of electronic invoicing

Against a backdrop of tightening regulatory requirements, our customer had to prepare for the mandatory dematerialization of invoicing flows between suppliers and customers on September 1, 2026. This legal change requires a profound transformation of invoicing and document management practices. The main objective of the assignment was to ensure the Group's compliance while capitalizing on existing application systems, in order to limit investments and guarantee operational continuity. It also involved anticipating the impact on business processes and preparing teams for these changes.

The assignment began with a detailed analysis of the regulatory requirements applicable to electronic invoicing, identifying the gaps between the current situation and the expected standards, in particular the applicable use cases. A diagnosis of existing information systems and business processes was carried out, involving workshops with finance, IT and operational teams. On this basis, a target IT and business architecture plan was drawn up, incorporating the changes required to ensure compliance and the choice of PDP. Finally, an operational roadmap was defined, specifying the stages of implementation, the resources to be mobilized, and the change support actions for the teams concerned.
