Lot: FAP PCI neu

Gegenstand der Ausschreibung

The FACIS (Federated Architecture for Composed Infrastructure Services) project, funded under the IPCEI-CIS/8ra initiative,
aims to develop a sovereign, interoperable, and secure digital infrastructure to support seamless collaboration between cloud
and edge services across Europe. Within this overarching goal, FACIS focuses on enabling trust-based federations by delivering modular and standards-compliant components that facilitate service provisioning, management, and governance in a decentralized ecosystem.

In alignment with the objectives of the 8ra initiative-which fosters a resilient, interoperable, and trusted European digital infrastructure-the FACIS project contributes foundational technologies that support cross-border and cross-domain collaboration. A key element of this effort is the development of Federation Architecture Patterns (FAPs) https://www.facis.eu/about-facis/
federation-architecture-pattern/.

FACIS provides pre-built, modular, and reusable FAPs serving as architectural blueprints for federated digital infrastructures. Combined with low-code orchestration tools offering visual integration capabilities for applications, processes, and teams, FACIS enables seamless data collaboration, accelerated implementation, and improved agility throughout digital transformation initiatives.

The FAP Principal Credential Issuance (PCI) will demonstrate how organizations can establish a secure, interoperable process for defining, managing, and issuing verifiable principal credentials across federated ecosystems. It will showcase a standardized workflow that connects organizational administrators, credential definitions, APIs, and digital wallets through a trusted issuance pipeline based on Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) and federation principles.

By enabling seamless credential configuration, issuance, and verification across organizational and domain boundaries, this FAP supports decentralized trust while ensuring compliance with established frameworks such as Gaia-X and eIDAS. It provides a scalable foundation for cross-domain interoperability, allowing employees to carry portable, verifiable credentials in compatible digital wallets and enabling organizations to integrate credential issuance easily into existing identity infrastructures, such as OAuth2-based systems.

The purpose of this award is to commission software development services for Lot Federation Architecture Pattern PCI by using the Eclipse Project XFSC (Cross Federation Services Components) as the foundation (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/
technology.xfsc).

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.
