Electronic Invoicing Mandate
The Defense Department has been mandated by section 1008 of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2001, public law 106-398 to require contractors to submit invoices electronically and the Department of Defense to process the invoices electronically. This mandate only provides three options to submit payments electronically:
Wide Area Workflow- WAWF (free web-based system)
Web Invoicing System - WinS (in the plan to be phased out)
Electronic Data Interchange – EDI (large out of pocket expense)
