  IDABC, what it does.

  IDABC issues recommendations, develops solutions and provides services that enable national and European administrations to communicate electronically while offering modern public services to businesses and citizens in Europe.
  The programme also provides financing to projects addressing European policy requirements, thus improving cooperation between administrations across Europe.
