Softwareentwicklung für freien Digital Contracting Service im Rahmen des FACIS‑Projekts The 8ra project FACIS addresses key challenges in digital infrastructure, particularly interoperability, governance, and the growing need for flexible, decentralized Solution architectures. By combining innovative technologies - including Federation Architecture Patterns (FAPs), machine-readable Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and low-code approaches - with a robust governance framework, FACIS supports seamless interaction between cloud and edge components across different providers. A particular focus is on the development of an free and open-source Digital Contracting Service (DCS) that supports qualified electronic signatures such as EUDI (European Digital Identity) Standards and enables secure, legally compliant digital transactions. The DCS shall enable automated, secure, and legally compliant contract creation, negotiation, signing, and lifecycle management. It is designed to operate seamlessly across sovereign IT environments, supporting multi-party and multilateral contracting scenarios essential for dynamic Service orchestration in federated edge and cloud infrastructures. The purpose of this award is to commission Software development Services for Lot Digital Contracting Services by using the Eclipse Project XFSC (Cross Federation Services Components) as the foundation (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.xfsc). The Integration of EUDI will be tendered in a separate tender procedure. For further participation and the processing of the documents, it should be noted that the development team must be complete as soon as the order is placed so as to be able to provide the development Services on time and with the required quality. Further details can be found in the Service description. Ausführungsfristen Bestimmungen über die Ausführungsfrist The project timeline may shift depending on the duration of the tender process. The final clarification will be communicated in the relevant bidding meeting.
