La digitalizzazione come strumento per acquisire informazioni: l’UPP e la certificazione di processo

Abstract

In 2021 thanks to the National Plan of Resistance and Resilience (PNRR), the establishment of the trial office (UPP), already legally regulated since 2014, undergoes a strong increase towards the strengthening of digital infrastructures and specifically towards the digitization of pending judicial folders in order to guarantee the so-called “reasonable length of trial”. In the same years (2021-2022) the Guidelines for the formation, management and preservation of digital documents are issued by the Agenzia per l’Italia Digitale (AgID) which promote the use of good practices to improve the administration of document work-flows, including the so-called process certification (Annex 3 to the Guidelines). This practice combined with that of dematerialization and otentially with that of OCR could bring numerous benefits including the expansion of the wealth of data and information present in  nalogical legal documents in order to populate sector databases.
