This report is a project charter proposal to the e-procurement ontology working group. It is supposed to be accepted by the working group during its first meeting. The project charter acts as a framework document for the working group members in the context of the development of an e-procurement ontology.

The objective of the e-procurement ontology is to act as a common standard on the conceptual level, based on consensus of the main stakeholders and designed to encompass the major requirements of the e-procurement process in conformance with the relevant Directives and Regulations.
