In view of what is provided for in the administrative procedure regulations, the REPRESENTA service is planned to be integrated with APODERA and RELI, as soon as the indicated technical standard is approved and the integrations are available.

Regarding the integration with APODERA, unfortunately we do not yet have a forecast, as we are awaiting the approval of the Technical Standard for Interoperability (responsibility of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation) which is currently still in draft form. The AOC Consortium is working to adapt to the specifications of the draft NTI, but until we have the final version, we will not be able to close the technical and functional adaptation of our platform and carry out the technical tasks for formal integration.

Article 6 of Law 39/2015, of 1 October, states that general registers of powers of attorney will not prevent the existence of particular registers of each register where the powers granted for the performance of specific procedures are recorded. In addition, each body may have its own electronic register of powers of attorney.

In any case, these general and particular registers must be fully interoperable with each other, so that their interconnection and compatibility are guaranteed, as well as the electronic transmission of the requests, writings and communications that are incorporated into them.

However, for this interoperability, it is necessary to previously approve the corresponding Technical Standard for Interoperability of the data model and interoperability conditions of electronic power of attorney registers, which is currently being developed.

The APODERA is the electronic register of powers of attorney of the General State Administration, which -like REPRESENTA or other similar registers- allows the registration of representations so that the proxies can act before the Public Administrations on behalf of third parties.

On the other hand, the Electronic Register of Bidding Companies of the Generalitat de Catalunya (RELI) aims to facilitate the competition of companies and streamline the actions of Catalan public administrations in contract award procedures (Decree 107/2005, of May 31).

Among the various data registered in the RELI, those relating to the representation of the bidding companies stand out, such as:

  • Date of the document and number of the protocol granting powers of representation in contractual procedures.
  • Surnames and first names of the representatives.
  • Identification of the powers of representation attributed: bidding, signing contracts, granting credits, making deposits and collecting.
  • Duration of powers of representation.
  • Action regime for the powers of representation.
  • Number and expiration date of the identity document of the representatives.
